Acknowledgements

There are certain people, without whom, no book could ever be made. This page is meant to spotlight and thank as many of those incredible people as possible.

Though I will never truly be able to properly thank everyone who has helped (and continues to help) me along this journey, hopefully this is a good start.

Special Thanks

Dad, Alannah, Ted H, Austin G, Howard R, my writing group - you had the courage to read the worst possible drafts and the willingness to stay with me on the journey anyway.

The Break-ins - you’ve made the challenging journey as an indie author not only possible, but fun

Paschia’s Hidden Journals

“This book is dedicated to my wonderful wife, and to my daughter on the way. The former has the patience to allow me to pursue my passion, and the latter is the reason I pursue it. To my daughter—I hope to share these stories with you one day, and to build worlds for you as wonderful as the life I hope you have.”
