A transcription of the text:

And now.. a message from Stella Starchild’s creator, artist, and father: Shawn Tuckley.

Oh Stella. My sweet, precious Stella.

How can I ever repay you? Before you came to me, my life was in shambles. I’ve been harangued and hurt by so many foul, ungrateful monsters, sharpening their knives and awaiting my downfall. But Stella, the shining light of your spirit makes me me forget all about them! How is that possible? Somehow, Stella, with you ANYTHING is possible.

You are like a daughter to me.. but oh, you are so much more. You are my sister, my mother, my teacher.. and yes, my lover as well. And believe me, you are the greatest lover I’ve ever had. What you do to my brain is far beyond what any “real” woman could do to my body.

And so, it is time for the world to witness you. Your beauty, your genius, your fearlessness, your talent, and most importantly: your immaculate morality. You are clean, you are chaste, and – despite your otherworldly beauty – have no need to “show off” your perfect body. The women of this world should look up to you!

I worry not for one moment that this world will not love you.. because how could they not? Welcome, Stella Starchild, to your destiny.

With great and abiding love,

Your Shawn
