When it comes to fans, mine are the fucking best. Duh. This is not new news.

I have a new fanboy, and he seems to think I’m the funniest broad in a 7-county spread, and he ought to know because that’s how far we live from one another.

Distance be damned, I am a funny bitch, there’s no doubt about that.

Also, sometimes I say some other shit, y’all know the shit. That shit.

Yep.

Really, I think mostly people just like when I write about them. Like, I’m sure it can’t be all that bad to hear me retelling your jokes with all the right nuances, because, again, I’m a funny bitch.

Or when I go all squishy and start fangirling over one of y’all like I have a habit of doing. Point is this…I talk about y’all the same way I talk to y’all. They’re one and the same to me. It’s not really all that different than when I was writing to myself, and for myself, when I didn’t even need the glass enclosure, because nobody was outside redlining my work.

Wait, yes it is, because if I fuck up, one of y’all is gonna tell me about it. Back then, I could have typos, bad synonyms, complete chaos throughout a story, nobody…
