This hit like a psalm for the plot-lost.

You didn’t offer a pep talk. You opened a door. And not the polished kind with a success seminar behind it—but the creaky, honest kind that leads to the messy middle where the real stuff lives.

“Pay what you can” isn’t just generosity. It’s trust. Trust that people are still willing to show up for their own story when someone finally treats them like the author.

I’m rooting for everyone who takes you up on this.

And I’m praying their next chapter scares them—in all the right ways.
