ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I am deeply grateful for the contributions, assistance, and support of the following individuals:
My husband, David, because his encouragement means more to me than he’ll ever know.
My children, Matthew and Lauren. Thank you for being patient—again!—while Mom spent all that time with her laptop. I love you both.
Amanda Tadych. Thank you for your expertise on Northeast Minneapolis and for giving me the perfect neighborhood for Kate to reside in. Special shout-out to the gang at Twin Cities Live.
Elisa Abner-Taschwer, Stacy Elliott Alvarez, Trish Kallemeier, Hillary Faber, and Tammara Webber. Thank you for your encouragement and for helping me to see what I could not.
Peggy Hildebrandt. Even though you’re not a fan of reading a book in chunks, you agreed to read the first sixty pages of Heart-Shaped Hack. Your heartfelt enthusiasm and immediate request for additional pages encouraged me more than you’ll ever know. You are a true friend.
Megan Simpson. Thank you for answering my questions about public interest law. Your assistance was greatly appreciated.
Erika Stone Gebhardt. Thank you for every bit of your beta feedback and for coming to my rescue in Dallas. I’m sure swinging through the Walgreens drive-through to pick up my emergency Rx before meeting me in person for the first time wasn’t weird at all.
Sarah Hansen at Okay Creations. Your talent is immeasurable. This is truly my favorite cover and I spent a ridiculous amount of time just staring at it.
Anne Victory of Victory Editing. Thank you for your eagle eye and your words of encouragement. You helped me in more ways than one.
Jane Dystel, Miriam Goderich, and Lauren Abramo. You are truly the trifecta of literary-agent awesomeness.
Special thanks to the book bloggers who have been so instrumental in my ability to reach readers. You work tirelessly every day to spread the word about books, and the writing community is a better place because of you.
I want to express my sincere appreciation to the booksellers who hand-sell my books and the librarians who put them on their shelves.
My heartfelt gratitude goes out to all of you for helping to make Heart-Shaped Hack the book I hoped it would be. Words cannot express how truly blessed I am to have such wonderful and enthusiastic people in my life.
And last, but certainly not least, my readers. Without you, none of this would be possible.
