Makayla asked Leah Thomas:

Hi! I'm new to this site since so I'm sorry if I'm messing up. I just HAD to sign up when I saw you were active on here (although I'm not sure if you are anymore/how old this is) since your twitter username printed in the book doesn't show up? I just wanted to say as a person with epilepsy and in a long distance friendship I nearly cried when reading the book. Is your twitter still up?

Leah Thomas Makayla,

I'm sorry not to have replied to this earlier! It's so wonderful to hear from you. I don't do twitter anymore, as it fed my anxiety in a bad, bad way, but recently I've been dipping my toes into instagram with no casualties so far (@fellowhermit) and I've long since been a fan of tumblr (@cuttooothom).
In any case, thanks for reaching out. Epilepsy paid a large role in my upbringing (an immediate family member lives with the disorder), and I was tired of never seeing stories about people like him. I'm glad the books found you!
