Before you write, I'd like to ask one small favor, please make this yours.

I kindly ask that you skip the AI tools for this one. No ChatGPT, no cleanup, no polish. Just you, in your own words, however they come out.

A run-on sentence, a thought you almost didn't include, a phrase only you would use is exactly what I'm hoping for. Imperfect words written from a real experience mean more to me than anything smooth and perfectly worded ever could.

Thank you, truly, for taking the time.
