Acknowledgments

Ever since I was a teenager, I’ve wanted to hold my very own book in my hands. It’s surreal and thrilling that it’s finally happening! What I didn’t know then, though, is that it takes a village to raise a book, and I’m very thankful to have such a smart, kind, thoughtful village behind this one. I’m grateful for the Codex members who read it in its infancy, as well as the incisive critique from my second readers—Lina Rather, Jordan Kurella, Meábh de Brún, and of course Bennett North, my frequent partner in literary crime, who talked me off many a ledge with this book. I’m grateful to my Viable Paradise instructors and classmates; my experience with them helped me figure out how to get the story where it needed to be. I’m grateful for the team at Tordotcom Publishing, starting with my brilliant editor Christie Yant, who took a chance on this story with me and who had a vision for how to take the story to the next level; to Lee Harris, Ruoxi Chen, and font of publishing information and know-how Emily Goldman; Chase Stone, the cover artist who made the book pretty on the outside; and Sona Vogel, the copyeditor who made it match on the inside, and all the other people working hard in the background of books like this one.

I’m so very grateful for my wonderful spouse, Andrew, who supported me along the way; my in-laws, Dale, John, and Cecily, who spent time with my children and thus bought me hours to write and revise; and my two beautiful babies who were so often patient when Mommy needed to sit down and clatter away on the YouTube machine for a while. Thanks, kiddos, I love you, and no, I will not read this to you at bedtime.

And finally, I’m grateful to a gloriously misspent youth crammed full of fairy tales, Disney films, and queer-coded villains. This book could never have been what it is without that.
