hello my beauties,

thank you so much for reading Apollo.

I'm so sad that it's over, but all good things must come to an end!

I really hope you enjoyed it - I know it's easier for some people to gain dislike for starry eyes at the end, but don't forget he's human. Try to see his POV. Even though he made mistakes, none were done with malicious intent. He loved Golden boy. He was just bad with his own feelings and dealing with them. The boy spewed facts as a way of letting people know how he felt 😂 that doesn't really scream 'communicator of the year'. So ease up on my baby, please🥺

Anyway, your support has been everything, and I'm really, truly appreciative of it!

If you'd like to know more about Apollo and me, be sure to checkout the interview I did with TheFlimsyArtist for his podcast "Authors Purpose"

Now for some shameless self promo :) 🔌

If poetry is your cup of tea, I've got 2 books dedicated to the ones that I've written, and it'd be really cool if you could check them out.

The first (completed) book is called, 'NUDE - poetry of an unquiet mind'

The second (on-going) book is called 'I BLESSED THE SUN - poetic musings of a black queer'

Lastly, to all my lgbtq+ pals and allies: happy pride!

Once again, I appreciate all the support from you guys on this

Once again, I appreciate all the support from you guys on this. I had this story idea, and thought since it's pride month this would be a great time to share and commemorate these special 30 days 🌈☀️🌻💕

The character Golden Boy represents so much more than a boy going through teenage angst. He is based off of not only me, but also people in my life. He represents the struggles of identity and life, and how it can really affect someone's mental state. People are more than the exterior they present to us, and we may not always see the troubled waters, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. So be kind :)

I'd like to thank everyone who inspired the story and it's events and the people who've supported me, especially my sister. It means the world.

I just hope the story sheds light on all that and more and that the message I was trying to send came through?? IDK, maybe I'm just talking shit. Welp.

This is me signing out for the last time (I think? Life's unpredictable) on Apollo, with love from this chaotic queer to you❤️
