Veil (101 page)

Simone and Rob, I will never be able to
express enough gratitude for you bringing me into the fold. I hope
this book brings your mother’s artistry to life in a new way and
reflects how much your world means to me. I am truly humbled to be
a part of it.

I’m bound to leave out some people, so please
be using the following section for yourselfs:

_______, thank you so much. I couldn’t have
done this without your support and encouragement. I constantly rely
on your wisdom and guidance. My utmost thanks and appreciation go
to you, _______.

Finally–last but not least whatsoever–Kyle
Ivan, you are the source of every bit of love and emotion I pour
into my writing. I love you more than Jin loves Suren and more than
Hunter loves Ken. If anything were ever to happen to you I’d go
more bat shit than that old crazy ass Great Widow Tsay. Without our
kind of love, this story wouldn’t have been possible. I will need
that love for the next two books and I have a whole stack of five
dollar bills with your name on it.

ABOUT THE
AUTHOR

A
pparently highly
offensive but relatively easy on the eyes. He never named his dick,
because he thinks others should name it and he provides ample
opportunity for them to do so. He is not greedy. He means
everything he says, unless someone takes offense–in which case it
was just a joke and perhaps they shouldn’t be so fucking uptight.
He has a son, a lover, a mother, a father, sisters, brothers, good
friends, a dog, and a foul mouth; therefore, he has all he needs.
This is his first book
,
so he’s not
entirely sure what he’s doing, but he gotsa liking for the story
and the characters. His only hope is others do as well. If they
don’t, fuck them. He never liked them anyway. Don’t make me sic the
Great Widow Tsay on your ass. Bitch will have you offed.
