for these characters and this world gave me
the courage to try to get published. Thank you
for staying until the very end.
One of the best parts of this journey has
been the friends I’ve made along the way.

Steph Brown, Jennifer Kelly, Alice Fanchiang,
Diyana Wan, Laura Ashforth, Alexa Santiago,

Getting to know you has been such a highlight
of my career, and your incredible art has

genius).
To my family: Thank you for your

than you know. To my in-laws, Linda and
