Acknowledgments
Practically Persuaded in Pittsburgh launches the Ticket to True Love series—an exciting collaboration I created to bring authors together. I couldn’t have done it without my tribe: fellow authors, willing readers, and incredibly supportive friends and family. So, bear with me, and please excuse my many exclamation marks:

Essential to The Ticket to True Love series:
Kate Schroeder: My heart, my pride, my partner in crime from the initial seed of an idea. It wouldn’t have been half as much fun without you. Still laughing over alphabet brainstorming!
Savannah Kade and Eli Collier: for your immediate enthusiasm, unconditional support, indie smarts, and always—your friendship. I’d be lost without you!
Jessica Orbock: for your thoughts on the legal side of things. Always helpful to have expert advice!
Savannah Kade, Terri Osburn, Shirley Hailstock, Kim Law, Christi Snow, Julie Strauss, and Christine Ashworth: authors extraordinaire and the first to sign on—with excitement, creativity, and dedication in spades! I feel incredibly blessed that you grabbed the ticket I offered and climbed aboard to share this journey with me. Puns intended!
Stacy Wilk: writing friends are the best at impromptu brainstorming. Thank you for the major light bulb moment!

Key for the Practically Persuaded in Pittsburgh story:
Kelsey Scout, Nora Baron, Richard Henry Schaefer III, and Deb Lindh: intrepid souls who’ve taught abroad and thoroughly answered my shout out for help!
Tammy King and Deb Garlock: thank you for being my go-to ’burgh ladies!
Jennifer Richter: my gratitude for supporting a local author. Hope your daughters get a kick out of seeing their names in print—when they are old enough!
Johanna Ojeda: little did you know I was listening with an ulterior motive! Thank you for the clarity on dealing with challenging hair.
Aquila Editing, Editing720, and Jen Coleman: you make up a stellar team!
All the Pittsburgh folks: you make Pittsburgh special. There’s no place like home!

Overall:
Despite all the help, I take sole credit for any mistakes.
And last but never least, dear reader: my heartfelt thanks for reading and reviewing! Remember, there’s many more Ticket to True Love stories to come!
