Sea Station Umbra

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

I wish to thank my good friends and fellow authors Tom Johnson and his wife Ginger of pulp fiction fame for taking time from their busy writing and reviewing schedule to read and comment on this story as it developed in my mind and gradually bled from my fingers into words on paper.

Another high-five goes to the Jesh Art Studio of Fiverr for his visual rendition of a beautiful cover for this book that created several settings in the story. Without that image, guiding my thoughts much of this story would be just words rather than the textual imagery it offers.

Finally, last and foremost, I want to thank my lovely wife Jaye for tolerating the time I spend creating and writing books, satisfying some inner drive for creative expression I still can’t quite understand. Possibly her unconditional love and unfailing support drives me forward as I try to impress her but that has yet to happen. Maybe next time.
