Adriana Leiker, Beth Flynn, Brittainy McCane, Eli Peters, Gill Melling, Jess Milliken, Lynette Kelly, Lyndsey Aaron, Nicole Sands, Pam Lilley, Sunshine Lykos and Tesrin Afzal. I love you ladies!! Thank you so much for believing in me and for being incredible friends and loyal supporters, not only to me, but to so many of my fellow authors with your promoting and blogging. I really hope I do you proud and want you to know how much I appreciate all you do.
Adriana. What can I say to my book bestie and all round beautiful friend? You made me believe in myself when I was crippled by self-doubt and you make me laugh. I love our quick chats that last for hours! Thank you. Seriously.
Pam, Gill, Lynette, Brittainy and Jess. I loved you before I met you in London, but now you’re stuck with me forever. Thank you, Pam for setting up a readers group for me knowing I would never do it for myself. Thank you, Brittainy not only for your friendship, but for bringing lovely Lyndsey into my readers group and for being such a generous author supporter on Sisterhood of the Travelling Book Blog.
Eli and Tesrin. Thank you both for being phenomenal beta readers. I haven’t known you very long, but very quickly knew we’d be friends for life. Collision benefitted immensely from your constructive critique and ongoing support. Eli, you’re the greatest wing woman a girl could hope for and I wish your blog, Page Turning Addiction, the greatest success. Tesrin, your teasers are incredible and I’m humbled by the time you take creating them on top of your busy life and the work you do on Wicked Women Book Blog.
Beth. You rocked my world with your incredible books and again with your immediate kindness and love. It’s yet another reason I’m grateful to Adriana for insisting I read Nine Minutes. I admire you as an author and love you as a friend. It was because of you that Nicole Sands and many other Niner friends including Eli and Tesrin came into my life and for that I feel blessed.
Sunshine. You are one of the kindest, most open-hearted and generous people I’ve met in the book community and I’m honoured to call you my friend. Thank you for all you do for me and for authors in general with the gorgeous Charity Pearce at Saucy Books.
Tara Hanrahan. Thank you for once again proof reading for me. You have eagle eyes and caught a few things that would’ve driven me crazy. See you at Opera Bar!
GJ Walker-Smith. Here is my something true. I love your books because they are brilliant, but even more so because they led me to you. We’ll be friends for life and beyond. It’s true. You know it and I know it. Thank you for your continued support of my writing and for the friendship I treasure.
ES Carter, my northern hemisphere twin, and to all the indie girls – we’re in this together! I’m so grateful to be part of such a wonderful support network.
My writing buddy and long-time friend, Lucy Fenton, acknowledged me in her latest book saying There’s no one I’d rather spend the day not talking to. It made me laugh and I agree wholeheartedly.
To all the blogs who help promote my books and to the readers who take a chance on me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Murphy Rae at Indie Solutions. I love that you designed my cover and edited my story. I can’t speak highly enough of your talent and professionalism and look forward to continuing this journey with you. When I meet you one day, I’ll bring Tim Tams!
Thank you to my family and friends. I write about love and friendship because I know about love and friendship. I have a blessed life with an amazing husband and children I love and adore. I am grateful for supportive parents and beautiful sisters, Zoë and Susie. Jen, you are my third sister and best friend of twenty-five years. We are lucky.
Last, but certainly not least, I want to thank my new friend, Nick Lundh, founder of the Lightning Fight Centres in Victoria. This is one of the great joys of writing. When else would I have had reason to gain such an insight into a whole other world and befriend a Former World Professional Middle Weight Kickboxing Champion, Professional Boxer and Muay Thai Fighter? Nick, you went above and beyond helping me give the Collision fight scenes an authentic edge beyond the limits of my imagination. http://nicklundh.com.au/
