Long, rambling Author's Note and Acknowledgements

And it's finished! At long, long last.

Well, wow. You know, when I first started Broken Soul, I'd never got past more than about three pages of any story, so when this one got underway I vowed I'd get to the end for once! Even so, I regularly break my promises to myself, and I know that I would never, ever have got this far if it hadn't been for all you guys who've helped me on the way with your amazing reviews! I might possibly have done about two chapters, than Broken Soul would've sunk into the darkness of oblivion and quietly died.

So I'd like to say thanks again to you all! In particular, to Mamacita-san who has been a FANTABULOUS friend and beta, to Miranda Took who in her emails has been wonderfully persistent in nudging and pestering me for updates for nearly two years, which frequently spurred me to get those chapters out sooner than I would've done otherwise (and being me, 'otherwise' would've been about half a year in between chapters, believe me!), to Folk for the amazing twenty-seven reviews in a row, and to Invaderk for being the sole person to review every single chapter!

To everyone else who reviewed (and if you're in bold font, it's 'cause you're especially amazing and your reviews were amazing and you've stuck with me for ages, corrected my mistakes and/or have helped me TONS!) –
