Hello All!

I would like to say thank you to everyone who has been on this journey with me. In no particular order:

My mama and daddy, thank you for always supporting me in my efforts to write this book and my creative endeavors. Thank you for inspiring some of these characters. Thank you to my twin sister for sharing my love of bookstores and being cool while sitting in silence.

Ciney, thank you for listening to my ideas and allowing me to talk your ear off about this world at the beginning of this work.

Thank you to every editor, beta reader, and friend who read my work and gave me suggestions and tips on how to be better.

Katya, Brittany, THANK YOU THANK YOU for letting me rant about the book and tell you every little step I took during this process and for understanding that our brains are similar in the ways of what we like to read.

Grace Brooks. Last but never least. My darling soul sister, you have left fingerprints all over my life and helped me create this world and put it into words. This book is your work too, your words. The minds of the two girls are full of sadness and creativity and the daring to hope that the world could be different. Thank you for being my history checker and in general thought checker. Sending you all my love and hugs and Panera gift cards. You deserve all the credit in the world and I can't thank you enough, my love.

These words are for anyone who feels alone, insignificant, or just not seen. If these words mean anything to you, they belong to you. I hope you enjoyed this world and will continue to enjoy these characters.

Much Love,

-E.K.Williams
