A huge<\/strong> thanks to all the people who helped me out with the research–and an apology to those I should have gotten to, but ran out of time and space to include them.\u00a0 My goal in writing this was to collect as many oral histories and primary sources as I could find, and put it in a context where the people who were there could tell the story themselves.\u00a0 I hope I’ve done that without making too many factual errors, but if I have, please let me know.<\/p>\n

Also, I would like to personally thank everyone who was a part of Xenobia and the class that wouldn’t die–the people who started LTUE, Leading Edge,<\/em> and Quark, which have become the bedrock of BYU’s thriving sf&f community.\u00a0 Thank you so much–all of this stuff has greatly impacted my life, helping me to connect with like-minded friends and to grow tremendously as a writer.\u00a0 We really do stand on the shoulders of everyone who’s come before, so thank you!<\/p>\n
