A special thanks goes out to the Charleston Writers Group. Without the hours of workshopping spent on the original Sleepwater Beat and their phenomenal questions and suggestions, this would never have become more than a wildly disjointed attempt to startle readers with a short story.
Thanks to those who read this book before publication, especially Jason Pere and Roy Daman, who got the whole thing chapter by chapter while I slaved away. And to Gretel Dougherty, who caught the “meat” of it.
As always, I must and forever will thank my husband Henry, who puts up with my one-track writer’s brain and makes it possible for this to be my sole focus.
