I Canโ€™t Believe Itโ€ฆ

You guysโ€ฆ

Yessss! โœจ ๐Ÿ™Œ

I won Author of the Month over at Spillwords!

All thanks to you, of course! Yay! ๐Ÿ˜

I donโ€™t have Facebook or X, but this is the post they shared ๐Ÿ™ thank you! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Iโ€™m so ecstatic! Much appreciation for every single one of you who voted for me and your kind encouragement and support. It means everything!

Featured on Spillwords – Wooohooo!! I also took this photo after driving over 12 hours home on the heels of catching this โ€œfluโ€ thingyโ€ฆexcuse the โ€œtired faceโ€ lmao ๐Ÿ˜†

Iโ€™m super excited and theyโ€™ll be posting an interview Iโ€™m doing with them on March 18th. Yippee!

Truly such a privilege!

What an honor! Iโ€™m so grateful ๐Ÿฅน

Again, it canโ€™t be said enough – I wouldnโ€™t have made it this far without you guys, and itโ€™s undeniably such a pleasure to know how much this community has helped me grow and become a better version of myself.

I couldnโ€™t ask for a better group of amazing artists and writers to be by my side to celebrate my accomplishments with me.

Yep, thereโ€™s an AI fail in this – but I like it too much not to use. Time to purge those drafts?

So much gratitude. Always!


I am over the moon at the moment, coming off of a great vacation and finding out about Author of the Month. Thank you to all who voted again, your support always means so much to me! ๐Ÿ™
