Thanks to Natanya Ann Pulley for reading the first draft all those years ago and the unparalleled encouragement. You saw something in it when there really wasn’t anything there to see. Thanks to Brian Hickey, Kristin Everson, Brian Walsh, Laura Braley, Megan Breunig, and Ben Bradford for early reading and input.
Thanks to Rebecca Podos and Nicole LaBombard at Rees Literary Agency for their tenacity and support; to Georgia McBride for taking a chance on this monster.
Thanks to Justin Hudnall and everyone at So Say We All for making San Diego a place for writers.
Thanks to my family: Mom, Dad, Amy, Ben, Laura, Lucas, Dane, Molly, Katie, Sage, Megan, Aaron, Cassidy, Karen, Lee, Craig, and Burton. My gratitude for all of your support is too great to fit in these pages. Love you all.
And to my incredible wife and partner in crime, Jessica: thank you. I couldn’t have done any of this without you. Let’s make out.
