ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I’d like to thank Crissy, Michael, Erin, Jenna, Rachel, and everyone at ECW Press for thinking this was a good story, and for helping me get it into the best possible form; Nathaniel Radmacher for holding my heart and my hand; Jesse Grimaldi for being my number one and for catching a breeze with me; my father, Alex, and my mother, Louise, for supporting this and all my other ridiculous endeavours; my sister, Emily, who also sings and writes, inspires and supports me; Aimee Echo, Michelle Cosco, Ashley Costello, Ryann Donnelly, Kathleen Binder, Chelsea Davis, Dolores Lokas, Angela Jekums, and all the other women I have shared the stage and road with and learned so much from; everyone at Sonic for putting up with my insanity and always giving me a place to escape to; Rainbow, Mike, Jim, and Owen for filling me with both rage and love and redefining “family”; and Lance, because I wouldn’t have written this without him. Thank you.
