Well, it does feel a little as if I am giving an acceptance speech as I finally get around to writing the acknowledgment page for the book. (The acknowledgments and dedication pages are due tomorrow.)
There were many people who helped me along the way, and I am trying to find the balance between including all those folks, but not being ridiculous. ("And thanks to the conductor who took my ticket that time I took the train to Manhattan to meet my editor....")
Heaven knows that there is no "stylist," "personal assistant," let alone, "fellow cast and crew"! But there are my agents, and my editor, and my writing group and....Well, you get the drift. It is actually a pleasure to thank these people, but I certainly hope I haven't left anyone out. And I am having a little fun teasing my family by telling them that I am dedicating the book either to the pet turtle or the cats...
