However, I did not go through all this alone. More than once, I thought the title was an apt description for my emotional state. The release of Into the Fire was therefore delayed while I put myself back together enough to write. If that wasn’t enough, even my dog required multiple surgeries. Right as I was coming to terms with the depth of my grief and the never-before-experienced writer’s block that came along with it, my father had four near-death illnesses within three months.
I’ve since learned that some things can never be braced for. (I’ve done that for the past fourteen books, and I’m not going to stop now, especially considering this past year.) My mother died over New Year’s, and since she hadn’t been well for a while, I thought I had been “braced” for her death. However, what I’m not going to change is my thanking God first. I’m going to break with the normal format by being long-winded and personal on this Acknowledgments, so feel free to skip. (excuse me, VLAD) get a happily-ever-after.
