I'm sure you were tempted to pass this page by, but thanks for stopping in anyway. This is the page where I take the opportunity to thank the many people who helped to make this possible.

First, I'd like to thank Andy for creating the newsgroup alt.comics.fanfiction. Though many of us tried to post our stories on AOL, they wouldn't let us. Andy is the one who decided we needed the outlet and created the group.

Second, I'd like to thank Hawk. For a long time Hawk took it upon herself to archive all the stories found on acff. This was a tremendous undertaking and I'm surprised she did it as long as she did. When real life took over and she felt it was necessary to take down the archive, many other people started creating their own smaller versions. Remember though Hawk, we're all just following in your footsteps.

Third, I'd like to thank my brother Art. Not only is he a terrific writer himself and allowed me to archive his stuff here, but he's the one who encouraged me to get back into writing X-men fanfiction when I'd abandoned it. It was his constant encouragement and support that made me actually finish Through the Valley of Shadows and kept me going through a lot of rough times. I love you bro.

Fourth, I'd like to thank Lori, the famous fan-fiction writer and mantainer of Lori's Corner. Lori gave my fanfiction a home when Hawk's archive closed. She even let me convert my stories into HTML files to send them to her, so they'd look good. This gave me the courage to think I might actually be able to learn how to do HTML. Also, she is the one who turned me on to HOTDOG©, which without I never would have made this page. If that wasn't enough, she even gave me some helpful tips and information. Anything that looks right on this page probably can be credited to her. Anything that doesn't can be thrown right back at me.

Fifth, I'd like to thank my husband Todd. Why? Because as I work on these pages and/or stories and cry out in a most pittiful voice, "I can't doooo this!" he always answers me back with "Yes you can!" Even if he's in hitting range. That takes guts. Thanks hon, I love you.

Sixth, I'd like to thank my brother in law Dwight. For giving me my first access to the WWW Thank you Dwight!

Seventh (The lucky number!) I'd like to thank Krista, Suzie, Jo, Chris, Mary, Kurt, Susan, and many other people who took the time to write me and tell me they enjoyed my stories. It's encouragement like that which kept me going when I wanted to give up. Thank you doesn't really seem like enough to say here does it? So, Thanks LOTS!
