Crushing (26 page)
Authors: Elena Dillon
I feel so blessed to have so many fabulous and supportive people around me.
The love of my life, Kevin, who allows me the freedom to write and brags about my writing to anyone who will listen.
My kids who both support me and make fun of me in equal measure.
My amazing sister-in-law, Julie Dillon, who reads everything I write and likes it.
My ideal reader, Sandee Lewis. A beautiful friend without whom, none of my words would have seen the light of day.
The fabulous Susanne Lakin, editor extraordinaire, who kindly makes me a better writer and never lets me get away with too many justs.
The wonderful Rachelle Ayala who betas and formats my work and doesn’t mind that I’m a dork.
Glendon and Tabatha Haddix of Streetlight Graphics who designed the gorgeous cover even though I probably drove them crazy.
My new friends, the members of Orange County RWA and Georgia Romance Writers who welcomed me into their fold and gave me the confidence to become an author and not just a writer.
Thank you all for being who you are. You are a blessing in my life, each and every one of you.
Elena lives and writes in a suburb North of Los Angeles. She has never lived anywhere besides California which is probably a good thing since she hates being cold and is terrified to drive in the snow. She loves being a wife and a mother to her three kids and three dogs, although really the bulldog is the fourth child who has never matured beyond the toddler stage.
A self proclaimed nerd, she has been writing since she was a child. She has only recently, however, come out of the closet about this to her family and friends. They now understand better, but not completely, why she talks about characters in stories as if they are real people.
