even if it cost me people and things that were essential in my life. i still love that i could get this out in the world.
the world may not care, but i do.

until next time.

love,
~ Elyx Quinn ~

PS : shoutout to my wonderful cat Dundee for being the best model out there.

i hope everyone who gave this one a chance, and anyone that will give this a chance, will enjoy it.
i am proud of this achievement, which was the goal of my life for as long as i can remember.

yet, here we are. not only did i publish a whole book... but it is poetry. the most personal thing i have ever written (well... almost three years later, i can safely say, some of the most personal things i have ever written).

but the few times that i did think i could do it, i always thought it would be my fiction that would end up into the world's hands.

on March 27th 2023, i published my first ever book. when i first considered the idea of publishing a book, i figured... nope, never gonna happen. aside from self-doubt, finishing a project has always been a struggle for me. and i am posting this almost three years later, and it is a struggle still.
