II. Thanks

Thank you to all my readers and reviewers. I have been very fortunate to receive thoughtful and detailed reviews, and I have enjoyed reading them very much. I am also thankful for those of you with whom I have shared longer conversations via personal message, and I hope you found my ramblings about writing and novelistic form interesting in some capacity. A special thanks goes out to the user Imageination, who created the Fargo TV Tropes page, which was very well done. Additional thanks to the user I-En-Tee-Jay, who reposted this story on various forums. Many others of you have posted reviews or recommendations of Fargo on other sites, and for that I thank you. It's always my goal when writing to make a connection with people through what I write, and I hope my story has managed to do so with at least a few of you.
