“When we become more fully aware that our success is due in large measure to the loyalty, helpfulness, and encouragement we have received from others, our desire grows to pass on similar gifts. Gratitude spurs us on to prove ourselves worthy of what others have done for us. The spirit of gratitude is a powerful energizer.”

My Dream Team

So many people have helped me, encouraged me, and educated me that if I were to list them all, I’d have to write a novella. Some people stand out for their substantial contributions.

My Critique Partner

Anne Barton and I formed our partnership in July 2008. She’s not only my CP.
She’s a treasured friend and one of my biggest cheerleaders.

With Anne at the 2011 Romance Writers of America® Award Ceremony when she won the Golden Heart for Regency Romance. She sold her first book shortly after.

My Agent

Rachelle Gardner with Books & Such Literary saw potential in
my work and offered me representation in December 2009.
I’m grateful for her knowledge, support, and work on my behalf.

The Staff at Barbour Publishing

Many people at Barbour worked hard to get my book ready
for release, and I’m very grateful for all they’ve done.

My Image Specialists

Jason Walker of Website Ministries is the talented web designer responsible for my gorgeous site. Working with him was a real pleasure. He graciously dealt with my seemingly endless questions and requests for “one more tweak.”

Karen Schmautz of Sierra Springs Photography took my professional author photos. Not only is she fun to work with, but she made me look great. Gotta love a talented photographer who can do that.

My Staunchest Supporters

My husband’s unflagging support means the world to me. Carl deserves a gold medal or something even better, but he does have my undying gratitude and a book dedicated to him. Our daughter, Adriana, is one of my biggest fans. I appreciate her encouragement greatly.
