To my dear readers,

For the past seven years you've read my writing, maybe only once, but you have. In that time I have never once felt the need to put a preface in any of my work, but I do feel the need to tell you a bit about this particular piece of writing, which I have been meaning to write for the past ten years, but have only put to paper (so to speak) now.

For some of my faithful readers, you may have read "Voices", "Little Things", and "Ice". All three are set in the Marvel universe, and deal with the subject of Infantilism. No, I am not an Infantilist myself, but I respect those who are and the lifestyle they choose to lead.

Many of my stories deal with the subject of Infantilism simply because I love to show the more innocent side of human nature. There is something so different about the way children see the world, and sometimes we forget that In everyday life. Some adults with the ability to put themselves in the mind of a child have a very unique way of seeing things. While seeing the world for what it really is, they also cling to that innocent, hopeful side of their childhood that they did not necessarily experience during that period of their life.

This is one of the most personal pieces of writing I have ever published, and I want every reader to know that from the get-go this story was written for all of you. I hate not being able to find a story that fits what you imagined, so every time that happened to me, I wrote how I wanted things to play out in the hopes that it would be what someone wanted- even if it's just one person.

With that in mind, I hope you enjoy the piece that I've written for you.

Sincerely,

Holly
