To my family of course, and especially to my mom & my sister, because they have had to put up with my mad scientist head for so long. As in, their entire lives. I’m so glad I wasn’t pitched into a dark, bad crack in the earth (yet!). Thanks to my community, because even though I was made fun of for my love of dork books, I know they were only trying to toughen me up for the journey ahead. Which took eleven years in the case of this book. Which brings me to the agents who tried so hard, especially the last, to school me & sell this book to a big press. Which the last one almost did, several times. GOD I’m so glad they didn’t. But their feedback was invaluable & it taught me not only what I shouldn’t compromise but what wasn’t a compromise at all, but something that just needed to be fixed. Thank you, my readers: Eden Robinson, Barbara Harroun, Jon Davis & Darlene Deas. Without smart readers, where would any of us be? Thank you Stand, you lovely British magazine.
