In Appreciation…
While writing is solitary, that does not mean there are not many people who support you. I want to thank my mom and brothers and sisters for their support. I want to thank Jennifer Mikulina of McDermott Will & Emery for her legal counsel as well as Lawyers for the Creative Arts. I want to thank my SCORE mentor, Ezzy Dabbish and my long-time mentors Mark Watson, Ann Mladinov and Vincent Schodolski. I want to thank the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology for providing me a beautiful place to write and think. I am also grateful to those who have taught me— Abel Alves, David Evanier, Dan Goffman among others.
