Yessss!!! She's such a complex and beautifully written character, and I will go to war for my girl, Crystal! 💜

Of course! You are a huge inspiration to me as a writer, and I'm so grateful for your work. Thank you for giving such a gift to so many of us! 💜

13/13 So, to wrap this up, the TLDR is that I'm grateful for this story, but first and foremost, I'm grateful to the ones who built it. Without them, there is no Dead Boy Detectives...

...and that's not a world I want to live in. 💜

12/13 ...all deserve the largest bouquet I could physically hold. My goodness, the way they have changed my life. I hope they know that—that none of what they've written is in vain. The story MATTERS, and it matters to SO many people.

As for the writing team: I believe Dead Boy Detectives has some of the best writing of any show on television today, and that is 100% because of the phenomenal team crafting this story with...

9/13 ...the Dead Boy Detectives writing team.

Our cast is phenomenal, but Lyndsey Baldasare and David Rapaport brought them all together. We have them to thank for the INSANE, firework-like chemistry we see on screen. They took a...

Lastly, I want to acknowledge the casting team and...

7/13 ...until I found Dead Boy Detectives. I think they've taken a story that is already so vital and so compelling and made it even more beautiful and gripping. I cannot say enough praise about them as showrunners. They cared about...

6/13 Steve Yockey and Beth Schwartz will have my heart forever, and this is truly not an exaggeration. Their spin on these characters and this story is everything to me. I have never felt so enchanted by every single element of a show...

5/13 ...it sooner! So today, I wanted to start my gratitude off with them, because when it comes to "world-building," there's no Dead Boy Detectives Netflix iteration without these incredible comics.

Now, onto the show, and the show runners...

2/13 ...Mark Buckingham, who wrote my favorite iteration of the Dead Boy Detectives comics (largely because of the introduction of Crystal Palace, who I find to be an incredibly compelling addition to the story in every way).
