h here we go
…my least favorite part of writing any book. Only because words can’t summarize everything I could and should say to all the people who support this crazy career of mine.
I’ll start with my colleagues—the women who I spend hours with each day online, discussing the business, the writing, our families, and other assorted things mostly book-related, but sometimes just stuff we like. I’ve met some truly amazing women in this job, and some of them have become true friends who I look forward to seeing and talking to at events around the country as we go to signings and conferences. Jennie Marts, Jamie Farrell, Sharla Lovelace, Shauna Allen, Robin Covington, Nana Malone, Jamie Raintree, and so many more who have been allies and friends and really great examples of the best this industry has to offer. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for being on this journey with me, thank you for showing me the light at the end of the tunnel, thank you for writing the fabulous books that you do.
To all the readers and bloggers who are so dedicated to this crazy world we’ve all built together. Thank you for your enthusiasm, your encouragement, and your commitment. We love and appreciate you more than you can ever know.
To the many talented auxiliary professionals who help bring our books to life. For me the team includes Bev Katz Rosenbaum who does my content edits, Nicole Bailey who handles the copy edits, and Jaycee Delorenzo who does my covers, print formatting, and other assorted graphics. They’re all consummate professionals, lightening-fast workers, and really a joy to work with.
Thank you for reading…Blaze thinks this should make a bestseller list, so recommend it to a friend! ;)
