The Christmas Wish, page 29
Thank you to Cerys Sadler for lending me her name and winning the Young Lives Vs Cancer auction. The family wouldn’t have been the same (or Welsh) without you.
The last couple of years have been a Whole Thing, haven’t they? Well, they have, and I don’t know how I would have managed to put pen to paper without the support/empathy/sage counsel/come-down-from-the-ledge pep talks of other authors including Mhairi McFarlane, Lia Louis, Marian Keyes, Kate Ruby, Lizzy Dent, Sophie Cousens, Andie J Christopher, Dorothy Koomson, Chip Pons, Anna Carey, Laura Kay, Kwana Jackson, Sarra Manning, Mike Gayle, Lauren Ho, Justin Meyers, Sally Thorne, Emily Henry, Jane Fallon, Sophie Irwin, Cressida McLaughlin, Lucy Vine, Claire Frost, Rosie Walsh, Gillian McAllister, Paige Toon, Giovanna Fletcher, Louise Pentland, Holly Bourne, Isabelle Broom, Andrea Bartz and heaps of other people I’m forgetting in this moment.
And to the people who smiled and nodded when I told them I was going to ‘do a Christmas Groundhog Day book because it writes itself’ and then watched me throw myself around for the next twelve months yelling ‘It’s so hard it doesn’t make sense!’, I owe you a Hawaiian vacation. Jeff, Bobby, Sarah Benton, Della Bolat, Julian Burrell, Kate Crowther, Kevin Dickson, Louise Doyle, Philippa Drewer, Olga Friedman, Emma Gunavardhna, Tal Harris & Kasia Kowalcyzk, Emma Ingram, Hal Lublin, James McKnight, Eleanor Moran, Danielle Radford and forever and ever, Terri White.
