china_shop and ![[identity profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/openid.png)
rhuia.livejournal.com encouraged me through the whole thing and sent me very helpful feedback (next time I write a story I am giving china_shop all my commas in advance, so she doesn’t have to rearrange them later) and lightgetsin did an heroic last minute American beta and readthrough in response to my pathetic appeal less than 48 hours before the collection opened. Thanks again to you all for your extremely necessary assistance.
