Acknowledgements

I would like to thank a few people
who have made this journey with me.  They’ve been extremely supportive and have
kept me sane or at least tried to keep me sane.  To Yolanda Cuevas Gonzalez,
thank you for believing in TSJ and for keeping me from quitting.  Crack crack. 
Gracias, mi hermanita, e
spero que nuestros
deseos
se hagan realidad

To Pablo Calderon, thank you for listening to me, reading my messy edits and
finding hope where I thought there was none.  To Lynn Eason, thank you for
reminding me I’m a writer.  Love you dearly!  To Saleena Davidson, Stefanie Dunnam,
Allie Goldstein, Ilene Lefkowitz, Mary Martin, C.L. Quillen, Katy Ratti, and
Cheryl Varanay, thank you for giving me honest feedback, forcing me to learn to
accept criticism graciously, I hope.  To Jay Asher, thank you for putting my
mind at ease.  To Frank Ashmore, all I can say is thank you.  To Michele Reutty,
thank you for the moral support.  I went first.  Now it’s your turn.
