It was unfortunate that I never knew, nor had met, DreamSpinner. I bought the domain of twilightrealm.com a few years after the domain expired, and hadn't been aware that it had had a previous owner until I fiddled with the Internet's Wayback Machine. It was through Walter D. "Cruiser1" Pullen of a Labyrinth site that I learned more of her, and how breast cancer had taken her life. A link to DreamSpinner's Labyrinth site had been linked from Crusier One's Labyrinth site as a dead link; something for people to remember in order to help keep her memory alive online. I dedicate this portion of Twilight Realm to DreamSpinner. She was truly an inspiration in the magical world.
