First of all, much thanks to my webmistress, Nikoru,
for not only having an abundance of patience for my
ever-changing mind and limited html skills, but for
also making this site look positively BEAUTEOUS!
To Lillian for encouraging me to write the first story
with her. Nothing has developed my skills as a writer
more than that story has.
To my high school newspaper editor-in-chief and my
freshman college writing prof for believing in me from
the get-go. Sometimes that's all a student needs.
To all my girls at the Backstreet Hotel/Room Out Back.
Keep the Mafialette Pride Alive!
To the Backstreet Boys--I started writing again
because of you guys. Thanks for the music. That's
always an inspiration.
Lastly, (and not to sound corny), thanks be to God,
"because without Him, nothing is possible."
