I just wasted a whole hour of my life listening to my creative writing teacher and the students laughing at/looking down on young adult novels

ya is not a ‘lesser’ genre people. everyone’s tastes are different

sorry i like to be entertained, shirley

sorry i like seeing teenagers be heroes instead of stereotypical annoyances, karen

sorry i like to write for a group of people that are told to act like adults while being treated like children, judy

sorry i write to make teenagers feel less useless and more loved, richard

sorry that i understand that all genres are valid and important, susan

please don’t shit on other people’s happiness

This NEEDS to be spread. It NEEDS to be said. Bless you, OP
