I can't even begin to thank everyone enough for reading along with me as I published this story, and all your supportive comments and votes. It means more than I could ever express in words, which is ironic considering I'm a woman of many words...

But I see you all, and I appreciate you, and I wouldn't have pushed myself to (finally) finish this story, and I couldn't have had the courage to publish it without you.

So, thank you. Thank you for sticking with me. Thank you for the generosity of your time which you gave to reading this story. And thank you for being your wonderful selves and finding something redeeming in this mess of words I've pulled together.

I hope you've enjoyed the journey, and I look forward to connecting with you again for the next one soon.

All my love.

Ash
