ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
First off, a huge thank you to S.M. Johnson, for being an awesome editor, friend and cheering section. Particular thanks goes out to my parents, Vincent and Carol Andrijeski, as well, who have been amazing and more supportive than I could have ever asked, especially given the quirkiness of their middle kid.
More generally, since this might be the last book I publish in the United States for awhile, thanks to everyone who made the last two years here so interesting and...err, educational.
A big thanks to my siblings, especially, Steve and Kathy and their families, and all of my awesome friends here in the Northwest, including Cindy Barber, April Aasheim, Megan Johnson, Tamela Viglione, the Blake family, Sanja, Terri, Cheryl, Edward, Amber, Mike, Monica, Niki and all of my friends out in Lincoln City. Thanks also to my writer pals spread all over the place, especially C.J. Ellisson, Shannon Mayer, Jesi Lea Ryan, Michael Lorde, Nathalie Aynie, Cindie Cohagan Travis and Michael Angel. Additional huge thanks to those who just keep me honest and sane and not so mono-focused in the writing world, including: Carol Kesler, Katheljin De Decker, Alaina Goetz and especially Amelia (Irene) Craigen.
And, of course, enormous thanks to everyone who buys and reads my scribblings and sends me awesome notes about this and that, or just to share with me snippets of their lives. I can’t tell you how neat it is to get to know you all, or how happy it makes me. Particular (big!) thanks goes to awesome beta readers: Jeannie Zelos, Scott M. Ryan,
Annalisa von Wendel and Craig Brown.
I’m heading east again soon, as many of you already know, but it feels like it will be a much shorter distance this time, both literally and figuratively. So this certainly isn’t a goodbye, just a thanks for your hospitality and a very definite “See you soon!”
And yes, I’ll post pictures.
