I find acknowledgements are the hardest thing to write. Almost as hard as writing the blurb. I’m always afraid that I’ll forget someone or a blog or an author…So many people have touched my heart through these past couple of years since I’ve been in this industry, I’ll never be able to thank you enough. Whether you have read my books, liked my posts, shared my release…everything you have done for me means more than I can ever say. Don’t think I don’t notice. I see every like. Every comment. I read all of the reviews, good and bad. I pay attention. I try with everything in me to let you know that I am here and I do pay attention.

I know I’m still working my way through the book world, trying to figure out what’s best for me and my books but I couldn’t do it without any of you. I have the best team a girl could ask for and all I can do is thank you over and over.

I’m not an outgoing person, I am who I am and you take me accept me that way. THAT is all I can ask for. Even if you don’t read my books, you support me in some way. You tell people about my writing, recommend my books maybe at a book club or a girl’s night out. If you are reading this still, know that you have touched my heart in some way.

Everyone knows that I of course thank my family, friend, authors and bloggers. My husband who is my rock and has supported me immensely throughout this journey. But I know my hubby wouldn’t want recognition. He’s a behind the scene’s kind of guy. He would want me to thank you.

Yes YOU.

Because of you, this book was born. Yes, I wrote it. I cried, bled and poured words onto the pages so you could be entertained. But if I didn’t have you, the reader, soaking up these words, my characters wouldn’t be able to tell their story. They don’t just want to tell it to me. They want the whole world to know what they have gone through, what they are currently going through and how they are going to get out of it.

So with that being said and you have read this far, my dear sweet reader, I thank you. From the
very
bottom of my heart.

 

I would also like to throw some names out there who have helped make Stain so much better and have helped me grow as an author:

Jen Lum and Tammi Plummer

Angie Stanton

Wendi Lynn

I love you girls!! And I honestly couldn’t have done this without your help and expertise.

Christine Stanley.

My poopy, my publicist and one of my favourite people in the whole entire world. Thank you for all that you do for me. I love your beautiful face!
