For Melannie, Holly, and Madeleine
My lights in dark places, when all others have gone out.
For Pam
Since the very beginning.
For Becket
For the right words when they were most needed.
For Gladys
You embraced my strange vision and helped me blaze new trails.
For Queen Melian (Mellie Smells), King Aragorn (Guvvy Bear), and Millicent Boleyn (Missy Sis)
My sweet pugs who are at least partly responsible for the end result.
And for James
My constant.
