When the World was Flat (and we were in love)
Page 23
A heartfelt thank you also to my amazing editor Amanda Rutter for loving this novel as much as Meredith and I. I am pinching myself even now that you wanted to share my story with the world. Thank you too for the honor of being able to call myself a Strange Chemist.
An enormous thank you to all those who read the multiple drafts of WHEN THE WORLD WAS FLAT (AND WE WERE IN LOVE), including friends, family and fellow authors. Special thanks to my friend and writing buddy Jennie Cowley, who was the first to read – and thankfully to love – this novel. You have been the fuel in my tank on this road to publication.
Thank you to my family for their constant love and support, even when I am buried under a pile of books or in the middle of a manuscript. In particular, thank you to my mom Pauline Jonach and late stepfather Ron Revitt. You introduced me to the arts and encouraged me to follow my dream of being an author. A shout out also to my sister Kara Jonach, who was on hand whenever I needed a hand translating from Australian to American. And much love to my long-suffering husband Craig Barnard for understanding my long nights and weekends spent writing WHEN THE WORLD WAS FLAT (AND WE WERE IN LOVE).
Lastly, thank you to all of those who will read this novel. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
