hi rainy! i love this story so much, it brings me so much comfort and i’m so so greatful you’ve written it. i was wondering if you studied some form of english language or literature in school or if writing just comes naturally to you? (sorry if that’s too personal, i’m just curious because i study english literature and i’ve noticed it helps me a lot with my own fic writing) 🩷🩷
awww hi anon, thank you so much!! that's so sweet <3 you're right, I did! I studied English literature and linguistics in uni. And I must admit I picked linguistics courses over literature courses wherever possible, but literature was still a compulsory part of my degree so I studied that too. it definitely helped me become a better writer too, even though at the time, I didn't write as a hobby at all. I've always read a lot though! I think every writer should also be a reader in order to improve (and I think pretty much all of us are? we're here because of our love for stories and words, after all!)
