Fragile Brilliance (Shifters & Seers) (30 page)

Acknowledgements

The first thanks has to go to Victoria Faye Alday, cover designer; Gwen Hayes, story editor; Leslie Mitchell, copy editor; and Sarah Pace-McGowan, Comma Police, for making me look good. The world would know what a bumbling idiot I am if it weren’t for you guys.

Also helping me look smart was Johnny Jones, world’s greatest high school art teacher and knower of artsy things; Amy Chase, talented ceramicist and cheese-fry sharer; Dr. Joe Lowery, mad(ly helpful) scientist; and Joe Peel of Clairborne Farms. Many thanks to you all for helping with my research.

A big heap o’thanks goes to Kathryn “Kitty Kat” Sills for doing all the frustrating formatting work so I don’t have to.

As always, the Beta Fish were instrumental in both inspiring this book and keeping it cool. Thank you to Samantha Newman, Tori Story, Amy Orman, Tory Driskall, Claire Harmon, Tessa Northcutt, and Emily Dunbar for being awesome. And even though she’s not technically a Beta Fish, Erin Lowery alway offers valuable feedback early on in the process, so thanks go her way, too!

             
Samantha Young, thank you for replying to my emails and not filing a restraining order.

And
finally, thank you to my family for supporting and loving me, even when it’s hard.

What can the future hold for a girl whose days are numbered and a boy whose life has no end?
