Immortal Consequences(135)

I know this is kind of weird, but I also have to thank my dog, Mr. Darcy. I know you’re a dog and you can’t read and don’t even have opposable thumbs, but thank you for keeping me company during the long writing sessions and for moving across the country with me during one of the lowest moments in my life. I love you, buddy.

And a final thank-you to you—the readers. It is with your support that I’m able to call this amazing thing my job. I grew up longing to escape into fantasy worlds, and I hope you find a sense of comfort and solace as you escape into the world of Blackwood Academy. All my love.
