Friday Fricassee -- My Gifts

Christmas is a season of giving.  I have so many "gifts" in my life as a writer, and I'd like to acknowledge you here.

In no particular order:

• Julie Butcher, for your wit, cheerleading, and sharp eye.  You deserve the best, Julie!
• Adam Heine, for your worldbuilding superpowers and your amazing sense of humor.
• Peter Salomon, for giving so much to this blog, and for being such a faithful crit partner.
• Alison Weiss, for your unflagging support and always-there-ness.
• Jodi Meadows, without whom I wouldn't be anywhere near where I am today.
• Josh Getzler, who stuck with me for 5 years.  So thankful for you!
• Danielle Burby, for your undying enthusiasm and incredible eye. And love of Jane Austen.
• Beth Revis, for never failing to speak encouragement at precisely the right moment.
• Christine Nguyen, for your unconditional love and bubbliness.  And forever faith in me.
• Michael Wulf, for putting so much time into our fearless bot. I couldn't do this without you!
• Leah Petersen, for not being afraid to say hard things. And for always supporting me.
• Holly Bodger, for being so faithful with logline critiques, and for always making me laugh.
• Joan Paquette, for picking so many gems from our offerings, and for being so supportive.
• Rena Rossner, for being an incredible "agent sister", reader, and source of encouragement.
• Gabrielle Harbowy, for believing in me.
• All my Success Story Authors, for being an army of good will (for real).
• All my regular commenters and tweeters -- I so appreciate your involvement and support.
• ALL my blog readers, for, well, reading.
• All my clients, for entrusting your work to me.  I count it a privilege.
  

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and I'll see you week after next!
