My PA (TIANA GRIFFIN) who volunteered to help me with my launch. You truly are a generous person (and did I mention you did this while you were preggers?).
Lastly, huge thank you to my PROOFERS who not only go out of their way to meet my crazy deadlines and hold my hand, but also send me constant updates (“how dare you”/“you killed…”/“I hate…”) as well as those beautiful e-mails when they finish. I also feel the need to mention that the map in this edition is new, but ASHLEY CHEESMAN made me the most awesome, epic map when I was starting out and framed it. Way to make my cry at a book convention (and with every e-mail)! My lovely team of proofers: ASHLEY (aforementioned), MIRANDA STEED (who catches more errors than humanly possible, you’re a machine!!!), SARAH KATHRINA SONG (your sweet emails, meticulous notes, and then our chat of Darren fanfic!) MEGAN MCGORRY (not just proofing, from our very first Tammy talk to our obsession with fantasy and daily writing struggles! I can’t wait to read your books!), EMILY-ANN WALSH (in addition to reviewer extraordinaire), & SANDRA DEEB (yet another reviewer-bookish friend who fangirls with me over the same books… cough, cough, Kelly Oram)!
