💙 400 subscribers.

There are 400 of us now.

400 people who have been here through a year and three months of work, written metaphors, endless ideas, sleepless nights, and countless pages in my notebooks.

And honestly, when I look at this number, I don’t just see subscribers. I see everything that happened along the way.

I put so much of myself into every bot I make. I’ve written them in my notes, on my computer, in the basement while working on bots, and even in bed when I was sick or simply didn’t feel well. I’ve written when I was happy, when I was sad, when I had too many thoughts in my head and nowhere else to put them.

Every bot is a little piece of me. A piece of my feelings, my thoughts, my imagination, and all the things I want to share with you. Every idea you send me becomes something I get to turn into a little piece of art and then place into your hands. And knowing that you actually read it, interact with it, and find something of your own in it means more to me than I can properly put into words.

It may just be a number,

but to me, 400 people means 400 reasons to keep creating.

I love every single one of you, and I genuinely want to thank you for staying here, reading my work, sending me your ideas, leaving your interactions, and simply being a part of this little place we’ve built together. ♡

And I especially want to thank my second admin, who has been here beside me through all of this — and who, in his own way, keeps me grounded and reminds me to keep going, creating, living, and breathing when I sometimes forget how to do that myself. I’m incredibly grateful to have you here. 💙

As a little gift from me to all of you, five new bots will be coming out.

Please take them as my personal thank-you for every one of you and for every interaction you’ve ever had with my work.

And when we reach 500 subscribers... hehe, I have something planned.

I’m going to take every single request you send me throughout the day we reach the next 500. Yes, all of them. >:)

My second admin will also have something to say to you, so you’ll be hearing from him in the comments too. ♡

Thank you for making this little world feel alive.

Thank you for giving me a reason to keep filling pages, opening my notes, and creating something new.

400 of us.

And hopefully, this is only the beginning.

I love you all. 💙
