i clearly remember an excerpt of this you shared a few years ago on instagram! reading it gave me the comfort and also pit in my stomach as it did back then - i forgot those things could coexist! thank you for sharing your work.

I am probably not the expected audience for a story like this but I found it absolutely captivating, heartbreaking, and beautifully written. Just knowing you from your videos I didn’t know you wrote too, and I definitely want to read more

I loved this!! I would be so interested in more from this character. This reminded me a lot of “milk fed” by Melissa Broder (complimentary).

Such a fun read. Your writing always drags me in and swallows me up for the duration of the read ☺️ write a book, babe. I’d love to be swallowed by your creations for a whole day.
