Acknowledgements

 

As usual, I have many people I want to thank for their help with this book. First, many thanks to the incredible team at Limitless Publishing for all their hard work on this series. Felicia A. Sullivan, once again you made edits painless, mostly because you can always see what I can’t. Thank you for all your insight and help in making this book what it is today.

Thank you to my incredible family who repeatedly watched me flee the room to work on this book every chance I got and checked on me when I disappeared in my office for hours at a time. To my friends who constantly support me and ask me about my books, you have no idea how much your interest in my career means to me.

Special thanks to G. Donald Cribbs and Kelsey Ketch for beta reading and offering great feedback. As always, thank you to my street team, Kelly’s Coven, for continuing to be my friends on this journey that is publishing. To my agent, Sarah Negovetich, and my social media manager, Amber Noffke, I’d be lost without you two. Thank you for all you do.

Many thanks to my amazing Into the Fire Street Team: Stephanie Faris, G. Donald Cribbs, Beth Consugar, Jen Bibi Helms, Denise Cayetano, Rachel Andrews, Stephanie Belden, Veray Carter, Booknut 101, Elizabeth Thiele, Maghon Thomas, Kristen Chandler, Ashley Kemp, Shieka D, Michelle Willms, Brie Wood, Keren Hughes, Rachel Gunter, Kathryn Romeo, and FSMeurinne.

And of course, thank you to
you

About the Author

 

Kelly Hashway grew up reading R.L. Stein’s Fear Street novels and writing stories of her own, so it was no surprise to her family when she majored in English and later obtained a masters degree in English Secondary Education from East Stroudsburg University. After teaching middle school language arts for seven years, Hashway went back to school and focused specifically on writing. She is now the author of three young adult series, one middle grade series, and several picture books. She also writes contemporary romance under the pen name Ashelyn Drake. When she isn’t writing, Hashway works as a freelance editor for small presses as well as for her own list of clients. In her spare time, she enjoys running, traveling, and volunteering with the PTO. Hashway currently resides in Pennsylvania with her husband, daughter, and two pets.
