Читать книгу King's Ransom - William Speir - Страница 5

Deepest gratitude goes to my wife Lee Anne for putting up with the process I go through while writing. Every day I love her more. I am also grateful for my family, without whom here would be no words worth writing.

Special thanks goes to my sister, Linda Speir, for her valuable edits and suggestions.

Additional thanks go to Leo Bush, Raine Carter, Donna Cash, George Cash, Nancy Clark, Jennifer L. Cook, Jan Eldritch, Catherine Helms, Joe Hoeddinghaus, Ellen D. Hosafros, Hunter S. Jones, Zame Kahn, Daniel Kaplan, James Kirkland, Kieran McMullen, James I. McNabb, Jim Newman, Charlie Philippin, and Jessica Veter for helping to make the earlier drafts better.

And finally, a huge thanks to the judges of the 2014 Royal Palm Literary Awards, who believed that King’s Ransom was deserving of a Second Place Award in the Pre-Published Historical Fiction category.
