ORIGINS - I've always wanted to write a story about Raven and Molly after seeing their brief interaction back in 2001. I think Raven is one of the most underrated talents ever in wrestling with a fantastic talent for the dramatic and mysterious. Molly too is way underused. Putting the two together seemed natural. After writing the first chapter, I knew I had something special. The darkness in both of them really came through in their personnas and I wanted to capture that. I think and hope that I did.

MUSES - stories by Starfallen (especially 'Our Little Victories' which opened me up to a whole new style of writing) old Raven memories and newer Molly ones, encouragement from NY BrAt 007, 'Bring me to Life' by Evanesence and truckloads of skittles

THANK YOUS Amanda - I am so saddened to hear that u are giving up on writing WWE fanfiction though from what I hear bout what's on TV at the mo, there isn't much to inspire anyone. I hope u don't count me among those cluttering up with meaningless stories. I've always valued u so much as an honest and different writer who sees things the way I do. I hope we can continue writing 'Return of the Princess' together. Please get in touch, thanks for the help with this - ur reviews meant the most

All my other reviewers (Blynne and Kate - thank you!) coz u made me carry this on with ur support. Thanks for seeing the same twisted vision that I did.

Special thanks to Molly (Nora Greenwald) and Raven (Scotty Levy) for creating two such wonderful characters who inspire me beyond words in every ff I attempt. I hope this has done u justice.
