I get SO much overwhelming support on here, discord, and instagram - especially combined. It blows my mind, all the kind people who engage with my characters/story and even read and enjoy it. It’s so unreal. It feels like a dream come true. I can’t express how thankful I am for each and every one of you. Every funny response in hashtags, every comment, every time someone notices smth in my writing, any engagement at all. I’m so sappy and cringe but seriously
I’d love to do some sort of event- maybe for 200 followers here? If yall have suggestions lmk somehow. Either events or something with my ocs yall would wanna see to celebrate

My name is Shada Kassab, and I am a 24-year-old mother living in Gaza. Every day is a fight for survival for me, my husband Hussein, and our baby boy Adam, who is just five months old.
Our lives have been turned upside down by war. My home has been reduced to rubble, and my husband lost his water truck, which was our only source of income. We’ve been forced to evacuate twice—from Deir el Balah to the Nuseirat camp—and now, we live in constant fear of what the future holds.
To make matters worse, Adam was born with clubfoot and urgently needs surgery. The cost for his treatment and specialized medical boots is at least $3000, but this surgery isn’t even possible in Gaza.
I recently graduated as a nurse, and I dream of building a better life for my family. But to do that, we must leave Gaza and start over in safety.
💔 I need your help to save my family and give Adam a future. Even a small donation 5$ can bring us closer to safety, and if you can’t donate, sharing our story means the world to us.
I dream of living in safety, of seeing Adam grow up healthy, and of building a better life for us all. Please don’t give up on us. Your kindness can make all the difference.
❤️ Thank you for taking the time to read this. Your support and compassion give us strength to keep going.
I think my nuclear-level, get me kicked off the internet take is that Glory *does* have the kind of trauma that would lead to her being in a relationship with a much older man, and I say that as someone who got groomed as a teen myself. She had her boundaries and self-image *deeply* violated by her only parental figures and that sort of thing can lead to maladaptive approval-seeking in non-family spaces. Someone like Deathbringer who fawns over her so easily in a sea of "never good enough"-s like that can be intoxicating and make you ignore a lot of warning signs.
Related to that, I always thought it was a little frustrating how the opening chapters of book 3 draw attention to how she kind of liked being Scarlet's work of art because it was an opportunity to rest and be appreciated by someone that wasn't her siblings for once in her life, and then that feeling just gets...squashed and never followed up on?
I still firmly believe the age gap was a worldbuilding error but I think if you wanted to write Glorybringer as an age gap to explore the tension between her self-sufficiency and closed-off nature vs her desire for approval as a result of parental abuse, that's a valid and interesting direction to take her character. Am I projecting my experiences onto Glory? Definitely, but I see a lot of myself in her and I think with enough care and responsible writing there's a story to tell there.
