Dedicated to Gauravaaditya — Gaurav _______________________________
To Gaurav — 💜✨ How can I even begin to think of what to write you? I will start with an apology to all turkeys for how many of them we have 'sent' to thank the other. For neither of us celebrating Thanksgiving, we sure do celebrate that Holiday a lot 😂🦃💗
I stumbled upon you in the comment section of another book, and soon there were more comments in each other's books than I could count. Looking back, I took one glance at the first chapter of Near Touch and instantly knew I had stumbled upon greatness. One look and I knew I wanted to improve my own writing. I was enthralled by your choice of words, your descriptions, and your cleverness. It was like a room of chandeliers all capturing the sun shining through autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place. All too well written 😉🍂🎼
Thank you for showing me and giving me the courage to grow as an author. To work on my craft. To widen my vocabulary. To laugh at mistakes, be grateful for them, and work on them—understand them. Thank you for being so honest, for your jokes, and for your thoughtful self. If there ever was a guru to follow—you're it! 👏
I've chosen to dedicate Chapter 49 to you. For many reasons. Some in the name of Near Touch, while others in the name of our friendship and conversations.
✨Congratulations on finishing your novel with all the sweat, tears, and (bad)blood that went into it. I hope you look back on your trials, look forward, and see that you're your own superhero. You can do it all—achieve your dreams ✨
