I have found someone that I'm proud to class as one of my best friends in a unexpected place and they are one of the most caring, supportive and wonderful people I have ever had the pleasure to know, yet I've never met them. You see, I found this friend on Twitter. Now there are a few others on Twitter that I would also class as friends; Fun, smart and witty people who have also been supportive but this particular, great friend is something else entirely. They have been with me (at least in spirit and lots of messages) every step of the way in my recent stress and heartbreak. This lovely person (like many of my Tweeps) lives in a different time-zone, so they were also able to support me when I was breaking my heart at 4am, when otherwise I'd have been left alone with my thoughts and my pain. They were completely selfless, giving up time for me when they should really have been doing something else and they didn't once complain. That is a true friend and I feel lucky, honoured even, to have found them.
This is my way of saying thank you. You know who you are x
That is so beautiful! You know I hopped on Twitter back in July of this year just to network in the publishing industry. Same reason I started my blog. I never thought I would actually chat with authors and editors, never thought I would class any of them as friends and certainly never thought I'd meet regular people I depended on more than those I could reach out and touch. But...that's exactly what I found. I'm so glad you found that person.
