There are a bunch of people I want to thank for this. You can write in an empty room all you want, but to turn those words into something people want to read takes a community.
To my agent Becky, who took a chance on a sassy writer with a decent pitch. To my editor Helga, who turned a halfway decent manuscript into a polished and real-world book. To the entire staff at CamCat, who helped a first-time author with objectively way more questions than necessary.
And finally, to my critique partner Taylor, who’s been with me from the very beginning, and who will probably be there long after I should have called it quits. Bomber Bros for life.
