Writing The Bone Way was a very whirlwind, solo endeavor for me, but I couldn’t have done this without certain people. Thank you to my incredible best friends, Val and Rashika, who are always there for me and who pick me up when I’m down. And thank you to my awesome writer friends, Circe and Alyssa, who have been really supportive of my work. I’d also like to thank my mom, Carol, and brothers, Travis and Chad, for being there in the ways I need them. Lastly, many thanks to my editors, Celine, Hannah-Freya, and Rowan, for their insights and help in shaping this novella into a better story.
