The Enforcer (43 page)

My first acknowledgement has to be to Emmy Montes. I have fooled around with the idea of writing a book forever, but probably never would have done it if she hadn’t done it first.

I work with Emmy and I cannot thank her enough for the tons of questions she answered for me about self-publishing (even when I asked the same question multiple times!). Not only is she a fountain of knowledge, but she pushed me to finish when I didn’t think I wanted to. She has assures me repeatedly that more than two people will buy my book.

I also want to say that my beta readers are priceless. Even though some of the comments stung, they needed to be said. I have to say, 99% of the time, they were right! Honest beta readers are without equal, so I thank you all.

My cover designer, David Goldhahn, is probably the most patient person I know. I can’t tell you how many times I asked him to ‘make the eyes bluer’ or ‘change the background again’. Nothing was ever a problem. He was always ready with a ‘sure thing, no problem’. Of course he does beautiful work too!

My editor Madison Seidler. What can I say? I was either a comma whore or I used them too sparingly. And there is only one space after the end of a sentence now. Who knew? Well, she did of course!

Lastly, I’m going to throw my hubby in here. He didn’t complain about me working on my book all the time (well, not too much), and he never said a word about all the money I’ve spent running promotions, buying a laptop or mailing out swag to contest winners, and believe me, it adds up! So thanks to you Craig, I love you.
