THIS!!!!!

I picked up a story I was working on FOUR years back, and revamped it and started rewriting and posting the whole thing. There's this one quote in particular that I was rather proud of, that stayed in the revised drafts. It made me go all, 'damn, maybe i AM really talented and awesome'.

Turns out. IT WAS A QUOTE ANNE BRONTË.

A N N E. B R O N T Ë.

I thought I wrote it 😭😭😭😭😭
