What makes you different makes you beautiful.

Today, someone emailed me about a story I wrote (those who have been around for a while, it was a story with a military background that was nominated for two awards) and told me that what I had written had touched him so much that he was now considering coming out of the closet and being himself.

I... don't know what to say.

How is that for awesome?

I feel so proud, right now.

Damn, Rosie. That's amazing. That's the thing that writers live for. I've always known that you were made of brilliant, but this...I'm so proud of you!

*hugs* Thank you, hon. I'm just like... wow. It was a little novella and entirely fictional; they weren't even my characters, although I developed them from limited information.

If only I could be bothered to write professionally...

That's great - well done.

I know. I hope he goes through with it, because I think he'd be happier.

That's pretty cool, knowing a fic has touched someone that much that they are willing to make a decision like that because of it...

It's all a bit... great power/great responsibility.

[anjak-j.livejournal.com]

Quite. I'd never really thought about writing in that way before...
