My developmental editor, Tiffany Yates Martin, is a dream come true. There were moments when I thought this project was slipping through my fingers, and she jumped with me into the trenches, offering abundant and brilliant guidance. From helping me find the exact purpose and direction of the story to your incredibly wise and subtle suggestions that served as last-minute brushstrokes to bring a painting to life, this book is far better because of you. Thank you, my friend.
A particular thanks to Tiffany Yates Martin, who had an inordinate amount of confidence in my capabilities and said, ‘What if we did the craziest thing ever?’ and then we actually did it. I would not have had the courage for this book on my own.
I am indebted to my developmental editor, Tiffany Yates Martin, who saw potential for a resonant work of art when it was rough marble, and whose invaluable feedback helped me sculpt this novel into shape.
