Читать книгу Becoming Normal - Mark Edick - Страница 8

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I would like to thank my editors, Daniel Kaelin and Helen O’Reilly, for their tireless work in the editing process. Their incalculable effort made this project possible.

I would also like to thank Mary Fouty at Lansing Community College (LCC), who helped me with the original manuscript. I think she still wonders if offering her help was a good idea, but I’ll never forget how beneficial her input was during those early days.

Jill Pennington, who runs the Writing Center at LCC, taught me that writing is a process I need to enjoy, which led me to discover that life is a process I also need to enjoy.

Leslie Farris, another writing instructor, taught me not to argue without giving the other person credit for their point of view. I do my best, Leslie.

Thanks also to all my other writing instructors who have helped me practice the process of writing, learning, and life.

I want to thank Central Recovery Press for providing the pages and ink that make up this book. They have done more than that: They took a chance on me, for which I will be forever grateful.

I also want to thank you, my reading friend; I hope that you will find my thanks expressed in the experiences and learning I have shared in these pages.

Lastly, but most importantly, I want to thank God. Without His help, none of this would have happened.
