J- Babe, I’m so sorry you’ve had to stare at me staring at my computer for the past few weeks and deal with the looming deadline version of me. Thank you for sticking with me and being so supportive every step of the way. xoxo
Cora’s Acknowlegments
They say never go into business with a friend if you want to keep them. At this point, K.A., not only could we run a company together; we could run the world. Holy shit, sister, how we managed not to kill each other through the writing of this book, I’ll never know. Through all the sleep deprivation, late night calls, and over-caffeinated rants, we made it to the end unscathed and still speaking. That’s some serious BFF power right there. I heart you, and I bow to your impressive dictation skills—because that’s some ridiculous shit. #duckflu4lyfe
To our Swamp Bitches and our heroic beta readers, Crystal, Angie, Heather, and Misty, thank you for sticking with us as we dragged you kicking and screaming across the finish line. Putting up with the eleventh-hour crazy that is KA and me is impressive and something worthy of t-shirt status. Hey, new marketing idea, “I beta’ed for KA and Cora and lived to tell about it.”
Crystal, girl, bless your heart—and not in the f-you Southern insult way. If I could give out medals for the most supportive cheerleader and mother hen, I’d hand you twenty. You keep my life straight and me out of a padded cell. Thank you just doesn’t cover it.
I’d give a shout out to my husband here, but he’ll never read this book anyway, so I’ll just say, “Yes, I’m still alive, and no, this probably won’t be the last time.”
Shout out to my Ma-Maw, the original Babs, and the phrases that still make me laugh. You are greatly missed but never forgotten.
A huge Ya Ya to the blogs who share our books and the readers who have made our little swamp family into something of a cult following. You keep reading, and we’ll keep writing.
