Thanks to everyone online and offline who accompanied me in this adventure--I could not have done it without you.
Special thanks go to Jason Kiss, who made all this possible and worthwhile. I am also deeply grateful to Bob Krukowski, Nikki Guerrero, Craig Davey, John Stevenson, Daphne Guerrero, Jean Burgess, Matt Webb, Timo Arnall, Rod McLaren and Molly Steenson for their support when things got hard.
This dissertation is dedicated to my mum, Betty Jean Galloway, who taught me to never give up.

Dear Anne, you really have been an inspiration, I have deeply enjoyed following your journey through this website. I whole-heartedly wish you the very best for your viva. I am sure it will go well! I look forward to reading the product of this endeavor, and to what comes around the next bend in the journey... "becoming lecturer'? :-)

whoohoo! Wish I could be there to be mind-expanded. Then I wish I could be there afterwards when you commence to getting your freak on. Go Anne go!
made of win indeed! Congrats again.
Congratulations Anne!
I followed your blog years ago, somehow lost touch with it and then "rediscovered" it a few weeks ago. It made me sad to see that you still listed yourself as a PhD candidate (I, too, had that status for a too-long time). And now to read this great news! Yay!
Cheers from Vancouver,
Jan
Best of luck and congratulations Anne...

congratulations Anne! Look forward to reading it.
Congratulations future Dr Anne! I wish I could be there!! Looking forward to read the thesis!
Big hugs from Sweden!!!!
Very belted congratulations! This is great news!
I'm delighted to read of your upcoming transition (from Ph.D. candidate to Ph.D. holder).
I hope you and your committee enjoy the exchanges on July 11, as I expect both "sides" will find their opponents formidable! I have no doubt in the outcome, though.
Dr. Galloway has a nice ring to it!
Congratulations! I have just begun a PhD myself (Educational Technology at Concordia). So nice to see someone at the end of what looks like is going to be a long journey!
