For my family…

I love you.

These stories are not all from my imagination; some have been retold and passed down from others and so…

With love and thanks to the following:

19:16. A special thank you to Daniel for this East London urban legend and for being an inspiration to me always.

Hibiki Jikiniki is for my friend and fellow poet, Tim Clare. Thank you for your time and exciting, revolting mind.

The Tongue Cut Sparrow A special thank you to my mother for the story and for your friendship…thanks for pretending not to notice when I steal your food.

That Shrewd Little Fox is for my especially talented friend and loyal editor Clare Hey, we’ve had lots of fun together creating these stories. Without you I would be in an awful pickle.

The Boy Who Cried Monster Thank you for the story, Ryan.
