Читать книгу Beyond Beauty - Ferial Youakim - Страница 5

SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE BLESSED me with their generosity in bringing this book into existence. I have been encouraged and humbled by their kindness, from reading drafts, suggesting revisions, and reviewing copies.

My heartfelt thanks to my beta readers: Keith Anderson, Courtney Bogdan, Samyama Gates, Susan Ostrem, Soraya Raju, Stephanie Reise, Stech Joyce, Frank Stuart, Jonathan Ware, Deb Well, and Elizabeth Weinstein.

I’m grateful for the love and support of my three beautiful children: Georgette, George, Phillip, and my magnificent son-in-law, Luke, whom I love as a son, for making me feel beautiful. My children stood with me from day one in a new line of work, picked up the pieces when I couldn’t, and amazed me with their strength of character and compassion.

Thank you to Gabriel Valjan for his excellent editorial advice and encouragement in this journey.

I am indebted to Amanda MacMaster of MacManda Media for her continued passion and support in promoting and marketing this book.

I love you all, and thank you.
