Girl on the Ferris Wheel
Page 25
I met Liz Szabla—the aforementioned editor who thought it would be a good idea to put me and Julie together—thirty years ago, and I have admired her from day one. A huge thanks to Liz and her editing partner-in-crime, Anna Roberto. Together, they made this a better book. Thanks also to copy editor Nancee Adams, proofreader Valerie Shea, production editor Lelia Mander, art director Mallory Grigg, and everyone else at Feiwel and Friends, including and especially Jean Feiwel. And thanks, as always, to my agent, Sandra Bond.
Thank you to Ellie Digrindakis Koulos and her mom, Athena Digrindakis, for not only helping me get the Greek translations correct, but having such a perfect name for me to borrow for Dmitri. Ευχαριστώ!!
As always, the biggest thanks go to Kristen, Charlie, and Luke for allowing me the time and space to live out my dream of being a writer. I love you more than words can ever express.
