Colleagues, thank you for the kind words--it's been an honor and a joy to edit the MT Annual.  

I am very fortunate to have been included in this family we call Mark Twain studies.

Hello all,
I'd like to join the chorus! Chad has been a remarkable Editor. The Annual has grown in stature and scope since Chad took the helm.

Enjoy your well-earned rest Chad, and thank you for your dedication and leadership!
