I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge some people, events, songs, and thoughts that really kick-started my yearning to write this novel on a serious, professional note.
FIRST OF ALL, I'd like to thank my bullies- my very own Mad Hatters. Though my whole life, you're beaten me down with the shitty end of the stick. And this has gone on for far too long. But you know what? Thank you, for making me a fighter. Thank you for making me Alice.
SECOND OF ALL, I'd like to thank Alyson Noel, Chris Colfer, and Meg Cabot for inspiring me to write. They're everything and anything I wish to be in the writing world, with their charisma and captivating plot-lines, and their novels keep me on the right track on a literature level.
THIRD OF ALL, I'd like to thank the musical stylings of Adam Lambert, Miley Cyrus, Marina & The Diamonds, The Pretty Reckless, Good Charlotte, Patrick Watson, Panic! At The Disco, Ellie Goulding, and Avril Lavigne for keeping my mind right up the alley of fun and young and rebellious. The tone of this story would not be anything without their lyrics.
FOURTH OF ALL, I'd like to thank my ridiculous family, for both annoying me and loving me. Without them, I wouldn't have built all of this up, or even be here to do so.
Those are my acknowledgements, and now, enjoy the story!
