Several BDers have affected me.
A few have radically altered my life.
Cami, you dragged me (kicking) into my first-ever RPG and pushed me into writing The Fairy Wife. You opened up a latent gift that I didn't quite know I had, and I've never been the same since.
Birdland-- a certain dolphin has a special place in my heart. I owe you my title, did you know that? Wonder happens; the abyss is a beautiful place. Birdie changed Lindo (and so Phura; ), Lindo & Phura changed me. Do the math.
Lush, you made me laugh over eyeliner; and like Movie-Sam, you hollered and reached as I dangled over the Sammath Naur, and dragged me out. Thanks.
Esty and
Mith-- thanks for welcoming me back.
The Tapestry Team:
littlemanpoet, Imladris, Orual, Aylwen, Nurumaiel, Alaklondewen-- What an adventure you've led me on. I love each of you for it. Your friendship has been a blessing, your cameraderie a joy, and your plot twists a challenge. You guys are the best.
Heren-Istarion-- kept me going after a setback. Gift of encouragement? I'd say so. Persistently.
Speaking of "Wonder Happens":
lmp, remember that eucatastrophe thread? Yeah. That too.
