After spending two years on the far-future Inverted Frontier series, I wanted my next novel to be closer to home. Pacific Storm is the result.
As always, I owe a huge thank you to my freelance editor Judith Tarr, who helped me to make this a better book, and to Sherwood Smith, who served as copy editor.
Thanks are also due to my beta readers, Dallas Nagata-White, Ilima Loomis, Ken Malphurs, and Ron Nagata. Ron went on to read the manuscript three times to make sure everything was just right, and Ken continued to patiently answer technical questions right up until the day I declared the novel “done.” Thank you also to Gabby Hirata for her help with Chinese names. Any remaining errors and deficiencies are my own.
Last but never least, thank you to everyone who’s taken the time to read this book, or others I've written. Your support and your encouragement are deeply appreciated.
If you enjoyed Pacific Storm—or any of my books—I hope you'll take a few minutes to post a reader review at your favorite online book vendor. Positive reader reviews are so helpful because they boost a writer's visibility, and that leads to more sales, as well as more promotional opportunities—all necessary to sustain a career. Thank you for helping out!
