@MirinFader @ringer You're so talented! This was incredible (like all of your pieces). @Ringer is lucky to have you!

@AlexKennedyNBA Alex! Thank you so much, I hope all’s well with you 🙏🏼

@MirinFader @ringer Mirin this is so good! Jae’Sean is the best

@SeanYoo @ringer Thank you, Sean!

@MirinFader @ringer This is absolutely fantastic 👏👏

@arynmatthee @ringer Appreciate you reading it!

@MirinFader @ringer This is narrative nonfiction at its best, even as it tells of so many terrible occurrences. The strategically spaced out repetitions on Jae'Sean's "stiff upper lip" and questions to himself, along with the many minute-detailed flashbacks related to his mother, hit me the hardest.

@WriterAlDaniel @ringer Al, thank you so much for this seriously kind message. I am the biggest craft nerd, and it means a lot to hear this. Thank you for reading

@MirinFader @ringer Loved reading this. I liked Jae’Sean from seeing playing now I love him with all my heart. Being a Ringer reader since the start this is theFirst time I ever wanted to contact someone and thank for the article.

@MaxHouston2015 I really appreciate it, thank you!

@MirinFader @ringer Loved this, Mirin!
