I believe stories find us when we need them most.
Not the clean ones or the ones with perfect heroes and easy endings, but the ones that understand what it means to hurt until you can't breathe and get back up.
I write for those who carry wounds they never asked for, those who flinch at kindness and yearn for a love that could cost them everything, and those who are tired of feeling like their empathy and caring are weaknesses.
You should never have had to endure what you did, but look at you now. You're still here, still striving. And my stories found you, so if you stay, I hope you find something that will also stay with you.
—H. L. Rillon
