So itâs been a while since I did one of these. I havenât really hit any kind of milestone. Iâve been hovering around 115 followers for like two years. But thatâs not really why I do these things. I do them because Iâve met some incredibly special people on indie and I want to recognize those people and tell them just how much they mean to me. So without further ado...
@deadbeatcentralâ
I feel like itâs obvious that you would come first. You were the person who brought me into this crazy world of tumblr indie five years ago now. I really donât even know where to start. First and foremost, I love you. Without question, without hesitation. Youâve been one of the single most important people in my life to date and Iâve been blessed to call you one of my best friends for years now.Â
Youâre so incredibly special to me. Youâre also incredibly special to this world. Youâre one of the best people I know. You never cease to amaze me with your compassion and true goodness. I just have never met anyone quite like you. Youâve got this incredible head on your shoulders. Your attitude toward life, your perspective on the world around you. You just have such a uniquely special way of looking at things.Â
Youâve been endlessly patient with me. And Iâd know because youâve helped me through the hardest times of my life. I honestly donât know where Iâd be without you today. I really could go on and on about how truly special you are. And rare. So so very rare and precious.Â
I could talk about how youâre also endlessly talented and how I know that someday people are going to know your name. But youâve heard me say all of this numerous times. I could honestly write an entire book about you and what our friendship means to me.Â
You make me a better person. But not only that, you make me healthier. And not by anything like pressure, but just by being who you are. You inspire me to no end and my life is forever changed because of you. Thank you for everything. Everything youâve done and everything you are. You are truly one of a kind. I love you more than words can express.
@axhesâ
You were one of the first blogs I followed on here. I was drawn in by your amazing characters and the concept of your blog. You were an OC multimuse which is my favorite flavor. And just from interacting with you the first few times, I knew you were so special.Â
Youâre like human sunshine and one of the most beautiful people that I know. Youâve got such a gorgeous heart and a brilliant soul. If someone had asked me five years ago if weâd still be friends today I wouldâve laughed in their face. Because Iâve always looked on you in wonder. Youâre way too good for me and we all know it. And still, you give me love and endless support. Youâve picked my sorry ass up off the ground so many damn times Iâve lost count. With your realness and your infinite wisdom.Â
You give this world and the people in yours so much of yourself. Iâm so amazed by you and everything you do. Youâve got to be one of the strongest women I know, youâre just so much more powerful than I think you even know.Â
I love you so much. Youâre just the most incredible person. I know your future is going to be so damn bright weâll all need protective eyewear. Never ever forget your worth. You too, are one of a kind. The best kind.
@exxxquisitesâ @deathtakeâ @pescaprincipessaâ
My Ami. My goodness. Going through my list of OG partners in crime. Exxxquisites was followed immediately after I followed Ash. I saw your blog and instantly fell in love with everything you did. It was close to my heart because a long time ago Iâd had Emma as a stripper in a far off distant world. And so the whole concept of your blog just spoke to me right away. Your characters are absolutely incredible, your writing is infectious.Â
You are so insanely talented, and so ridiculously modest about it. You are truly a treasure. For the longest time I looked to you as this untouchable god tier blog. I only dreamed about writing with you and being one of your friends. Likewise, if someone had asked me back then if I would be friends with you today? I wouldâve been like naw Amiâs way too good for me. Thereâs no way in hell.Â
But here we are. And youâre one of my closest friends. You too have helped me through so much. Whenever Iâm struggling or going through something. Itâs like somehow you have this innate ability to know that and you never fail to reach out and dust me off and help me find my way to being okay again.Â
Youâre such an incredible woman. And so so strong. I know youâve been through your fair share of hell and youâre honestly just this warrior. Iâm so incredibly blessed to consider you family. You light up my world in the darkest of times. Youâre a wonderful friend and ally no matter what the case. I always know youâre in my corner and I canât thank you enough. Youâre just so special. Not only to me, but in general. I love you so so much babygirl. If it werenât for you, I might not still be here.
@desecratedvalorâ
Beautiful soulmate of mine. You know, I havenât randomly sent you an inbox about how much I love and adore you in a long time. So strap in and get ready because Iâm going to take full advantage.Â
God, where do I start? Youâre such a beautiful woman, inside and out. And thereâs not a doubt in my mind that you can take on any challenge and come out on top. Youâre such a fighter and so so strong. We met and instantly clicked. I knew you were special because of our effortless chemistry and that of our characters. That was back when you only had Caroline and to this day sheâs my favorite of your muses. You know, the real Caroline Forbes. You should have that shit trademarked to be honest.
Youâre my family in a way that most people canât comprehend. You just get it. You get me. You know me better than most people do. Youâre the kind of friend that everyone wants but doesnât realize that they actually need. Your realness. Your fiery spirit. You just have such a beautiful mind and your heart is so precious.Â
I love you more than I can adequately express to you. Iâm so effing grateful to you for all youâve ever done for me. For all that you are. You just have this way and itâs honestly addictive. Weâve done so many great things together as writers and I know weâre only going to continue to do that. Youâre one of the easiest people to write with, you and your characters inspire me and mine.Â
Thereâs just never gonna be another you that comes into my life which is why Iâm so intent on holding onto you for the rest of it. Youâre absolutely perfect. Please donât ever change.
This is beginning to get incredibly long so for the sake of not making a post a mile long, Iâm going to try to condense.

Those of you listed above fall into your very own category. You guys make tumblr such a joy. Having you on my dash makes this experience everything that it is. To each and every one of you. Youâre so special to me. Whether weâve been friends for a few years or a few months. You guys make this worthwhile.Â
Youâve all got such incredible blogs with an abundance of fantastic characters. Itâs been such an honor to write with you and interact with you out of character. You are such blessings to me and gifts to this community. You guys are the reason I still have threads to work on, on the regular. Without you, my life would be so boring and my writing experience on here wouldnât be the same.Â
Youâre all special in different ways but the same in one respect. And that is, that I couldnât ask for better friends or partners. Every single person listed above has been so supportive of me, not only in my creative endeavors with this massive blog that is constantly under construction that you continue to follow-- but also in general. Iâve had some shitty stuff happen during my time on indie and each and every one of you have come out for me on numerous occasions.Â
Each and every one of your blogs is a must follow. You guys have no idea what you mean to me. I love all of you so much more than I can say. I admire each and everyone of you and am blessed to have you in my family on here.Â
Thank you so much for sticking with me. Through the ups and the downs you guys have been nothing short of stellar. My God, I just love you so much. Keep shining like the very stars in the sky because thatâs what you guys are. Beautiful lights that remind me why I do this.
And finally, to those of you who I either havenât interacted with or donât as much, but am dying to.

Know that I admire all of you from a far. Iâm always impressed by what I see from all of you and if we havenât spoken. Itâs honestly because Iâm too intimidated by your quality to approach you. But believe me when I say, I follow you because I want to interact with you and do every last damn thing. Iâm just a baby bird who doesnât know how to approach you.Â
You guys have some serious skills and the things I see from you on my dash are pure magic. Iâm blessed to be mutuals with most of you and I hope that someday extremely soon we will break the ice and start interacting with each other.Â
Each of you bring something completely different to the table and I just love it. Know that even if we have never spoken Iâm sending you every bit of love and light and positive energy that I can. You guys are absolutely wonderful. Take this an as open invitation to hit me up to do things. Iâm so so down.
