Una,

Your writing is beautiful, this line in particular. I loved your story, and the way you stuck firmly to your boundaries even when others overstepped. There’s a misconception that introverts are secretly wallflowers waiting to be rescued, but in fact most of us know our own happiness and don’t need to follow the crowd to enjoy ourselves. I love the Jane Austen quote you chose. She’s one of my favorite authors — so ahead of her time! I look forward to reading more of your stories! — Kari
