This month, you wrote a novel. You wrote that novel with a community of hundreds of thousands of writers around
the world. You contributed to the millions of words we wrote collectively: imagining and creating, exploring joy
and heartbreak, laughter and pain. As James Baldwin once said, “It was books that taught me that the things that
tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive.
Thank you for being a part of this connected creative community. Congratulations on your incredible accomplishment.
