Thanks to my pre Wattpad team: my loving wife, awesome sister, and exceptional father, for the combination of editing, proofreading, motivation, castigation, and generally making sure that my writing was suitable for feeding to the public. Thank you all so much! Really, I would be nowhere without you! And that goes to the rest of my family and friends too, who have supported me in so many ways during my writing adventures!
All graphics work done in GIMP (a powerful open source image manipulator) using photos from stocksnap.io, taken by photographers who have generously shared their works with the Creative Commons license. Thanks to all of them! The links to the original photos are posted at the bottom of this page.
I would also like to add that I know almost nothing about trees. I tried to build a vaguely Pacific Northwest atmosphere here - and relied on oregonstate.edu/trees/ for the research, so thanks to them too.
Finally, and I can't stress this enough, thank you (all of you) for reading, commenting, and voting on my stories – and for making writing them worthwhile!
