My three main peeps Anna, Dylan and Jacqui are now my good friends (Weird! Much?) have been drawn from my own experiences and those as a mother of four. As for Leo and his twinkly blue eyes—he is all imagination and a little bit of wishful thinking.
I must thank Aunty Betty for proof reading, editing and giving me all kinds of anecdotal information. Hours and hours and hours and hours have been spent reading, re reading and reading some more. A small tree died for our sakes with the amount of photocopy paper used for each edition. Don’t let it die in vain!! I love you Aunty Bet.
Thanks to my daughters, my PA Charlotte Hayes and my IT support Angela Hayes. I love you gals. I have tested your patience with my limited skills. You have both grown into such clever confident girls and so beautiful!
Thanks to my sister Linda Richardson for the lengthy job of formatting TUGGTO at a moment’s notice. You are the best sister! Loyal and loving. I love you and your boys!
Thanks to my wonderful parents, Bob and Jo Thompson who have always supported me in anything and everything. I love you guys.
To dear Alpana Guha, my Bengali authority and translator. Thank you for all your time and food! Now Atreya, you must read it. (Again!)
I must also thank my dear friends and writers, Anna Nankivell—kind and supportive and always with an encouraging word. BFF! Yes I know that makes you spew.
Rebecca Newman (www.alphabetsoup.net.au) Check it out for kids that love reading and creative writing. She always points me in the right direction and has an uncanny knack of texting me when I need it most.
And drumroll … Catherine Parish whose centred and humorous approach to life saves my sanity and inspires me all at the same time. https://katemartynauthor.wordpress.com https://freeereads.wordpress.com/2015/04/18/new-site-clean-romance-books/ Trawling the Amazon for fab free reads.
And to my boys—Phil, Luke and Dan. Phil you have always supported me and encouraged me to write even when a character named Kev popped up. I love you. Luke you are a true gentleman. You are now the same age that Clarence was when he enlisted and that is terrifying to me. Be thankful of the lives laid down. And to Dan, you are my sweetheart who will grow up to be just like Les, a gentleman of old.
