Screwmates(52)
He’s also really not poetic, so when I add an epilogue to Screwmates, I’ll change his wording.
Acknowledgments
All the usual suspects came together to help this book get finished in a semi-timely (LOLOL) manner. I am truly blessed to have so many amazing people in my corner. Laurelin Paige, this book was supposed to be half you, and I hope it didn’t suffer too much without your expert touch all over it. Melanie Harlow, my personal little plot bunny, thank you for making me so welcome when I inevitably show up in the D during every single book. I never want to write one without you. Sierra Simone, no one truly understands the Void the way you do, because you are my dark-soul-sister even though you make a convincing cheerleader when I need one.
Ang Oh, the kindest, gentlest editor—I owe you many bourbons. Candi Kane, nothing runs without you. Especially on Tuesdays. Jen McCoy and Paula Dawn round out our little Pentagon of Porkers, and I look forward to laughing with you guys every day.
Rebecca Friedman. My girlcrush is truly outsized. Ask anyone. Wait, no. Don’t. It’ll be creepy.
I would not even have a book if I didn’t have Becca Hensley Mysoor. Here, there, and everywhere. You are the Madison in my head, except in real life you are funnier, sweeter, and more inspiring than any character on a page. Also, you threaten to beat me with wet noodles when I don’t work every day, which is really a good thing for my productivity. Thank you for being in my corner, and for all your notes, my frond til the ond. This book is many times better for your patient advice.
All the kittens in my Red Light District (join us on Facebook!), I am so delighted to have you. It’s the greatest gift an author can have, to know people truly care about their books, and cocktail recipes, and the occasional turtle-porn.
And as always, without bloggers and readers, there are no books. Thank you for reading, for reviewing, for sharing, for commenting. I am so grateful for all you do.
