Wrong Number (32 page)

I would also like to give a big thank-you to Authors Incognito and LDS Storymakers (
www.ldstorymakers.com
), who sponsored the first writing conference I ever attended. It’s scary to think where I’d be without all the training, advice, and support I gleaned from these two groups.

Thank you to my group of readers, who probably all saw a different version of this manuscript: ToriAnn Perkey, Tina Ellsworth, Jill Clark, Nancy Baird, Heather Justesen, and Tim and Andrea Jolley. Thank you to my editors and all the great people at Cedar Fort for giving me this opportunity.

Finally, I’d like to give a huge thanks to everyone in my family. Mom, Dad, Stephanie, Patrick, and Sarah—I love you. I have the best in-laws—thanks, Nancy and Francis, for your encouragement and love. Thank you, Steve, for listening to me ramble about my writing and being one of my first readers. And thanks to my wonderful children for their patience, for hugging me when I struggled, and for cheering me on every step of the way.

J. C
HRISTENSEN WAS
born and raised in a small farming town in Idaho. Her creativity developed easily in this rural area as she spent many years working in the fields with only a few weeds to distract her daydreaming. She graduated cum laude from Utah State University with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a minor in music. Rachelle loves spending time with her family and writing during every spare minute she has. She also enjoys singing and songwriting, playing the piano, running, motivational speaking, and—of course—reading.
