100 stories! 
Wow. This really such an incredible feeling. One hundred tales for me to tell, and plenty more who enjoyed them.
Thank you guys. It's such an honor to post my work for you all to read, and it means so much to me when you tell me you enjoy it. It really makes all my efforts feel worth it. By no means has this journey been an easy one, but if I hadn't taken it, I wouldn't have met some of my best friends.
I have a long list of thank you's to make.
To my mom, first and foremost. You are my biggest fan, and my best cheerleader. You supported me from the day I was born, and never once gave up on me. You worked hard to give me a good life, and you succeeded. You're my mom and my best friend, and you are the most incredible person I know. I'm so proud to call you my mom.
To my husband Ben. Without him I wouldn't be here, because he got me into the fandom in 2013. It's coming up on a year of marriage for us, and I wouldn't trade you for anything. You'll always be my Shining Armor and I'll always be your Cadence.
To Sophie, my sister from another mister, for always making me laugh, for being unfailingly supportive, for saying I can do whatever the hell I think I can, and for just being there to share in my crazy. You are my bestie for life and I adore you.
To Pip, who is most often the first person to see my work, and the one who has supported it the most. My proofreader, my editor, my different perspective- you wear so many hats for me, and I appreciate all of it. I don't feel like I say thank you enough, but I hope you know I am so grateful not just to have you as the first person I talk to about ideas, but an awesome best friend too. You always make me smile, and I appreciate that.
To my Middle School English Teacher Mrs. Kendrick and Sophomore High School Teacher Mrs. Veit, for saying I had talent writing and helping me hone it.
To Ayla, Christie, and Monica, for always loving me, singing with me, and praying for me. #GCS forever.
To Mrs. McKinley, for having me as her guest at many sleepovers and being supportive of all my efforts. You are incredible and strong, and you raised a great daughter and an awesome son.
To Carol, for letting me rent out a room in her house from time to time, for taking me out of my house, for driving me to college all that time ago, for never giving up on me, and for being another mom and a sort of grandma to me too. You are amazing and the hardest worker I know. Get it, girl.
To Auntie Rhonda, for every birthday, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Fourth Of July, and Easter Celebration growing up. You helped me become the woman I am today, and showed me what strong women are made of. Even battling lupus, you took care of your family and raised two great men. But you also helped raise me, and I love you for it.
And to Raevyn. What can I say, baby girl? I couldn't have made it this far without you. You will always be my greatest inspiration and the reason why I do what I do.
Thank you to all my fans, and all the new friends I made on this website. I will always be grateful to you for letting me share my ideas with you, and to all of you for the magic of your friendship.
Much Love,
Cloe
