Congratulations to everyone who entered the competition, win or lose, because, as one muse once told me, “publication is victory.” Nobody does this alone, and I’m vibing genuine appreciation to the many, many people who supported this novel, most notably Rare Bird Books, my editors Seth Fischer and Steve Eames, and the family and friends of the book’s real-life inspiration. Tom Tookey: you really can see into the future.
