Why You’re My Favorite Author Ever

Dear Gord,

I was just thinking about my writing. How I’m gonna be a famous author one day. And then I thought and thought and thought back to when I first learned about you. First of all, your writing is spectacular. But mainly, it’s that you got published at either 13/14, but you wrote a book at 12. A good book. A fun book. A lot of times I feel like I can’t write or I shouldn’t write because “it’s bad, you’re just a kid”. but then I would have your website open always while writing, just as a reminder that you were a kid and that you did it too. So by the way, whenever my gazillions of books get published, just know you were and are a key factor in how I realize yes, I could do it too. You’re an inspiration. And this isn’t even why you’re my favorite author. You write awesomely. Your first person stories (or all your stories, I suppose) feel like I’m listening to an intricately woven tale by one of my best friends. your stories are always so nice. Your characters are (mostly) really kind and when they develop they do get that way. So many of them are different in their unique ways, and I love them for that. You’re a great author for that. Your writing is magnifique!

Be blessed,

Jade
