I loved this entire story. With how the Anorexia was portrayed, that everything seemed realistic, and that no character seemed to "step out" of line. It was a VERY well written story, and I LOVE your writing style! :)
im the fucking happiest girl in the world, for special reasons, and seeing that you updated made even happier, really i was not expecting that hahaha, and your story is one of the best i´ve read, honestly, such a different topic and i different way to show love, not the same typical love story, really great. i loved the end, i really wouldnt change a single thing of it, you really impressed me with it, it was simple and great, nice work (; i hope you write something else soon =)
I've been a silent reader, but I figured now is as good a time as any to make a comment. I've fallen in love with this story over the past few months, and though I have no personal experiences with anorexia or anyone that has, I feel like I've been affected almost as strongly. Your writing style is absolutely brilliant, and it's been quite a long time since I last read a story that affected me like Hemorrhage did. I want to thank you for never giving up on this, and I'm anxiously awaiting whatever you end up writing next.
Though I hate to admit this, I've been one of those 'silent reader' types for nearly this whole story. I never know what to say about stories I love as much as I've loved Hemorrhage, because every time I try I just sound silly. But I figure I can sum it up with one bit of scary truth: There have been times that when I has seen that you had updated this story, I have literally screamed I was so excited, hahah.
You are an insanely talented author, and I just want to thank you for never actually pressing that delete button and keep giving us Emelie's amazing story. So thank you, thank you, thank you, so very much; and I can't wait to see what you come out with next. <3
i just read the ending to your story, and i want to thank you for writing it. my bestfriend is fighting the same battle now and i hope she ends up in the area that emilie did. it may just be fiction, but you portrayed an eating disorder the way it should be done. not as something easily brushed off, something distructive and harmful in crazy ways. - gabby
So, I just found this, and fell in love with it. In a span of like, two days. It really hit home for me, because my younger sister has been struggling for about two years with eating issues [not neccesarily anorexia] and had lost a ton of weight that she now has to gain back. Reading about Emelie's battle with anorexia was so well described and plotted, it at times made me think that you were writing about my sister, and not a fictional character. I thought it was beautiful, and I love "Hey, Darling" and "Our Hearts Begin to Crumble" as well, which I also read over the weekend. I think you have a real talent for writing, and I'm looking forward to reading whatever else you decide to post.
Silent reader here. Just wanted to say that I think you did an amazing job at this story and I thoroughly enjoyed this story and the ending! Good job! :)
while i loved many things from chapter 29 this part was my favorite: "Now things were still light and funny, but there was an added layer of something to it. It felt real now, like a real relationship. When I got coffee, I got him one too. If he got to catering before me, he would grab me a plate of food. He would hold my stuff when I went to the bathroom and he bought me tampons once from a Circle K in Texas. I knew what he ate at In ‘N Out Burger, and he knew which shirt I was referring to when I asked him to get me “the yellow one”. "
it's the simple things like this that, to me, make the bigger picture so much more worth it in the long run and you highlighted that so well.
as for the story as a whole, it was classy and brilliant. you didn't glamorize it, you made real and it was alarming at parts, but illnesses like that are anything but simple and full of smiles and easy fixes. it was honest and the message in the end shows that with help and wanting to get yourself help you can move forward. thank you for this, it was truly inspiring. i can't wait to see what else you have in store. :)
I love this story so much and I can't believe it has come to an end. I think you did a wonderful job portraying this issue and I wouldn't think anyone would be offended by anything in here it is all well written and well thought out. I do like how it ended it was cute not too mushy not too bland. Very good job and I hope when you look back at the fic you find joy in what you wrote because it was very good.
I can't believe it's overrrr! I swear, I had a coronary when I saw this in my email just now, my roommate and I actually paused Lost so I could read haha, and that's a miracle in itself. SO UM THIS ENTIRE PART MADE ME EXTREMELY HAPPY: Sam, who kept Garrett in check and kissed him occasionally, and Emily, who originally from Britain and was the tattoo apprentice for the on-tour tattoo artist. Of course there was also Molly, who was probably my best friend, but she was pretty busy, between selling The Maine merch and stealing Kenny off for some “secret” make-out sessions. I TAKE IT THAT WAS MY SURPRISE, YEAH? :D :D :D You're sofa king brill, haha and what a freaking heartfelt author's note! I might actually have to update Home now that you've finished Hemorrhage, I mean if we're inspiring each other to write, I should definitely step it up.
I loved your story it made me realize that what I was thinking about doing was stupid web I thought I was fat. it made me start talking to this one guy because he made me feel good and now we are going out. I mean some of that was other things but this story gave me the little push I needed. Thank you.
So this may sound lame as hell, but your ending chapter made me realize something. (Not that your whole story didn't "inspire" me, it did, but the ending really did. :D) It made me want to be the upbeat, I-don't-care-what-you-say girl who is usually always in a good mood and what not. So thank you. :]
With how the Anorexia was portrayed, that everything seemed realistic, and that no character seemed to "step out" of line.
It was a VERY well written story, and I LOVE your writing style! :)
