ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who was good to me while I wrote this book—but especially to:

Bethany, who is an excellent, tireless beta and a marvelous friend—and who just goes around making life and the Internet better.

Forest, who talks about these characters like they’re real people; and Jade, who never gets tired of them.

My editor, Sara, who is fucking awesome.

And everyone at St. Martin’s Press who’s worked so hard to help my books find readers—and to help readers find my books.

Thank you to Christopher, who is ten pounds of agent in a five-pound sack.

To Rosey and Laddie, who make me happy.

And to Kai, who tells me to write all the words.

Also: I decided to write this book after reading a lot (I mean, a lot) of fanfiction. Reading fic was a transformative experience for me—it changed the way I think about writing and storytelling, and helped me more deeply understand my own intense relationships with fictional worlds and characters. So thank you for writing it.
