Читать книгу Cast in Flame - Michelle Sagara - Страница 6

This year, Worldbuilders (www.worldbuilders.org), Patrick Rothfuss’s charity drive for Heifer International (www.heifer.org), gave me an opportunity to contribute something to their series of auctions. I wanted to do this, in part because I like the charity, and in part because the money is used to make the world a better place.

But my contribution was…a manuscript for a book. This one. And in order for that contribution to have any value to the charity, someone was required to step up and bid on and win the auction. I was prepared to thank that person in the dedication to the book—or to thank anyone the bidder chose. I still want to thank Chad for his enormous generosity.

Chad, however, bid on and bought the book as a gift for someone else, and he has a few words he wants to say:

To that special someone in my life who shall remain anonymous. Mainly because I would not likely be among the living if her true name was mentioned.

There are so many things about you that I love, like your stunning smile and laugh, which I never get tired of finding ways of bringing out. The unconditional honesty you are willing to give or how you sneeze when the sunlight kisses your face. And the phrase “Oh Dear” will be forever special to me.

Life offers many challenges, but I have never stopped loving you, always have, always will.
