Good Intentions ⇼ Luke Hemmings

Hello everyone,

This is currently a day late, but I'm overcome with emotion and just had to share this with you.

All I've ever wanted to do in life is be a writer. And although I'm not as successful as I hope to be in the future, I'm still so grateful for all the fans I have.

Whether it's a like, a comment, or a message; hearing from the people who take the time to read my stories truly warms my heart.

It's insane to think of how far I've come and how far I'll continue to go.

Living with bipolar disorder is one of the hardest things I can imagine, but I do it everyday. And I do it for all of you. I do it because I want to put out work that you'll all love and relate to and read over and over again because that's that I do.

I want to share my love of writing and push through the dark days just so I can write one more chapter or one more story or have one more idea. I know that life gets hard sometimes, and I'm living proof of that, but I want you all to know that you can come to me if you have any problems or have anything that you need to talk about.

Even if all you do is read my stuff or leave a vote every once in a while, just know that I know you. I realize when my commenters don't comment, or my voters don't vote, or I have less views on a chapter. And know that I do my very best to find out who isn't present and I worry about you until you come back to my stories.

You all mean the world to me. Each and every one of you. It doesn't even matter if you don't read my stories, you still matter to me.

You're all single-handedly helping me make my dreams come true and I couldn't be more thankful for that. Whatever you do, wherever you are, never stop reading.

Never stop writing. Never stop obsessing over band members. Because it's all worth it in the end. We finish a good book and our hearts feel warm, we write a story and we feel like we have purpose again, we follow those band members and they light up our lives.

Never think that anything you do isn't important or worth it, or whatever those voices in your head tell you. To me, you matter. I love you all.

You're all my reason for writing and not giving up on this dream.

That being said, I've finally made the decision to change my major in college. I'm now majoring in creative writing with a minor in journalism. I'm doing what I really want to because you all believe in me.

Just know that I believe in you, too.

Thank you for reading my stories and thank you for supporting me.

One day, I'll make it and you'll all be able to say that you were here from the beginning.

For that, I am truly grateful.

Mili (exiiliious)
