fifth acknowledgment:
Angela Abadilla, Calvin Stemley, and the incomparable Dwayne Dolphin, who are the musicians and music teachers who shaped me as a musician but even more as a person, which is good because in the end I never became all that much of a musician
sixth acknowledgment:
Mom, Dad, Lena, Eve, and Grandma, who are the family that is the reason everything I write is about families
last acknowledgment:
Tamara, who is my first read and my last love.
