Warm thanks to everyone who has encouraged and supported me in the writing of Chasing Charlie. The team at Black & White Publishing have been fantastic, especially my editor Karyn Millar, whose keen eyes and encouraging spirit have been much appreciated. My family and friends helped keep me going every step of the way. Frankie and Billy shifted my focus, while Anne and Jen have been awesome cheerleaders and first readers. Abbie Browne helped brush up my industry knowledge. Gorgi gave precious time, succour and so much more. Finally, I have no idea when this book would have happened without Moo, who is one of the most generous women I have ever met. You all rock.
