APPENDIX

The telling of this story is dedicated to my husband, Thomas D. Overcast, with love and gratitude. I am
especially indebted to my agent, Donald Maass, for his inspired ideas and confidence in me. My special
thanks to my editor, Anne Lesley Groell, for her sure footing in literary matters large and small, and to
Donald McQuinn and the Pacific Northwest Writers Conference for mentoring and belly laughs... and
again, to Thomas, for all the long discussions of time travel: maddening, elusive, and exhilarating.




If you can look into the seeds of time,
And say which grain will grow and which will not,
Speak then to me.
тАФMacbeth, I. iii.
