I’d like to thank Rockwell Carlin Sheldon, aka Rocky, my son. I love you more than you’ll ever know in your entire life ever. Thank you for reinvigorating my life. You can’t read as of now, but one day you’ll be able to, and you’ll be able to brag at school to all the kids that your dad wrote a book and theirs didn’t.

I’d like to thank my dad and sisters, D. Warren, K. Rose, and H. Evelyn.

I’d like to thank my mother. We miss you.

I’d like to thank my stepmother, M2.

I’d like to thank my friends Joe, Seven, Paul, Alvie, Triebel, Patric, Jason, Ben W., Cody, Dutch, Approach, and Simon.

I’d like to thank my other family: Vaughn, Rick, Payden, Brenen, Christian, Morgan, Noah, Eli, and Aiden.

I’d like to let you know that James Lynch always wins.

I’d like to thank my HDMMA family: Jason, L.C., Travis, Bryan, Mike, Brandon, Brandon 2, Erika, Deron, London, R.J., Rachel, D.T., Macall, Poston, Henry, English Dave, HD on 3!

I’d like to thank Jason Bircher and KCBJJ, and Devin Pirata and Dragon Family.

I’d like to thank my William Morris Endeavor family: Bradley, Avi, Erin, Erin, Miles, Margaret, etc.

I’d like to thank Adam Wilson and Gallery Books. Thanks for believing in this.

I’d like to greatly thank Bennett, Mercedes Cruz, and Aunt Lillian for the strangest, most amazing summer of my life. I hope this book doesn’t offend you. Know I love you.
