This journal is in response to InvisibleInkDoodles 's journal detailing the things she went through with myself and Mal. As I am blocked I cannot comment on the journal myself, but it is my hopes that she sees this eventually. I don't know of any good way to contact her, otherwise this would be done through DMs/PMs, etc.

I would first like to start off by saying the things she said I said, are indeed true. There is no excuse for my actions - I was a shitty person to her and really have no right to have been. There was a lot of disinformation going around and I had only the information given to me by one party. That alone, was not enough to form any sort of judgement on a person or a situation. I'm not going to make excuses, I fucked up. BAD. I take full responsibility for what I did as well as what I said.

Mal and I were in an online relationship, and I should never have gotten involved in the project past doing voicework. We are no longer dating and really haven't been since the whole thing with Joanna came to a resolution. (I use the term loosely as to this day, she's still - with good reason, upset.) I've been in therapy for a while now and understand that some actions I have taken in the past were not okay in any capacity, and upon reflection, this was one of them.

Joanna, I am sincere when I say I am sorry. I never should have done, or said, anything that I did back then. There is nothing I can say to make up for it, and I don't expect forgiveness because it was downright distasteful how I treated you.

I'm pretty much out of the VA/art game at this point in my life as I have way too much on my plate in terms of personal life things. In fact, I have literally nothing to gain by making this post. Part of recovering in my therapy is taking responsibility for my actions. I did do things I'm not proud of, and one of those was getting involved with people/a project that, in the long term, I was completely ill-suited for as well as acting in a manner that, when looking back, I am incredibly embarrassed about. I've since been working on myself as a person and to be honest, had completely forgotten about all of this until I was informed of the journal existing. In fact, I had to dig for my DA password as it's not saved on this browser. Like I said, I'm out of the game.

So, again, Joanna, I am sorry for what I said and my actions that had put more stress on you than any person ever deserved. You shouldn't have had to go through that. I wish you success in your future endeavors, as well as good health in the coming years.
