But especially Snowfall, and of course efin, Beoca, and crazypagangirl. I have found many hours of enjoyment here, countless friends, and more support than I probably deserve to receive.

Ladies, your friendship and comments are the icing on my birthday cake.

As to writing, alas it is not a skill I possess. I have some small ability to pass on the knowledge which I have accumulated over the years, the pointless little factoids which rattle around in my skull, and the hard won lessons of my previous endeavors. But the act of creation, the combining of elements and thoughts and words into a living, breathing story......... that lies beyond my abilities.

Besides, if I wrote about much of what I have seen or done, well, I'd have to kill you, lol!

Thank you again to all of those who have helped and supported me these past several years, and especially to all those who I have had the privelege to call friend.
