   I meant to have this whole chapter finished and posted by my birthday (the first week of July). Can you believe it? But that’s okay! Slow progress is still progress.

   I also wanted to take a moment and share my inspiration for this chapter cover. A few years ago, I was fortunate enough to see the Ron Mueck exhibit at The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and was completely blown away by his work. I was particularly affected by a specific sculpture titled “Crouching Boy in Mirror,” which was posed similarly to the way Dez is seen here, positioned across from a mirror. The sculpture did an excellent job of conveying vulnerability and self-consciousness that comes with adolescence. My hope is that this homage to Ron Mueck’s sculpture portrays the same sort of feeling- and that someone might be able to identify with that feeling as I did.
