thankyou
first of all, i just want to say thank you, to you. it means so much to me to know even one person has read this book. so thank you. for the hours you spent reading this and for giving it a chance. i hope with my whole heart that it brought you some joy, some happiness, a smile and at the very least, that it allowed you to escape into this reverie, for a little time or a long time.

to my dedicated readers who kept up the whole time. seeing you guys voting and liking my chapters each time I uploaded was a great encouragement and I really appreciate it, also those who gave me encouragement and helped me with critiques and improvements immensely

to my family, thank you for loving me and listening to me ramble about characters and plotlines for way too long. thank you for reading my chapters and telling me it was great when i felt like i wasn't.
to my teachers (who probably won't ever see this) thanks for not getting mad at me when i came to school late all the time because i was up all night writing or for not submitting homework because uploading a chapter was a bigger priority

final thoughts
this has been a massive journey. it almost feels bittersweet to finish (even though I have a hell of a lot of editing to work through) i spent so many hours pondering this, building characters and daydreaming the next chapters. hours locked in my room at night, drinking tea, burning incense and writing while i listened to peaceful music. early morning rides on the train furiously trying to type chapters out on my phone before i got to school. its taken a long time. but its so worth it. i feel so grateful to have been able to write this. <3

mental health
this story obviously has issues regarding mental health. personally, i have no experience with this but i really did try to portray it as realistically as possible. feel free to let me know if there were any inconsistencies or things that were described wrong. overall, it is meant to spread awareness with the message being that you can overcome these mental health barriers and to encourage people to reach out for support from friends, family, or professionally.

moving forward
i will be taking a few weeks break from this before I get stuck into editing so i can see it with fresh eyes. if you're interested, i will be starting on a new project in the meanwhile. it's titled "portrait of; a drowning girl" ~ it's already on my profile so you can go have a look if you like.
thankyou, again.
