"Kitty and the Midnight Hour" - читать интересную книгу автора (Vaughn Carrie)

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Many thanks to Paula Balafas of the Wheatridge Police Department, for checking the police stuff, and for being a stalwart literary partner in crime at CU.

Thanks to my housemates when I was writing this: Joe "Max" Campanella, for the radio and music insights, the advice, the high fives, and the shoulder; and Yaz Ostrowski for beta testing, and for the immortal words, "Don't make me hungry. You won't like me when I'm hungry."

Thanks to the Odfellows, Odyssey Fantasy Writing Workshop graduates, especially the Naked Squirrels, and to the WACO writing group (Michael Bateman, Barry Fishier, Karen Fishier, Brian Hiebert, and James Van Pelt), most of whom have had to deal with Kitty in her various incarnations. I'd especially like to thank Jeanne Cavelos for her always enthusiastic support.

I could keep thanking people for pages, but let's just add a few more: to Thomas Seay for his giddy anticipation; to George Scithers, Darrell Schweitzer, and the staff at Weird Tales, who gave Kitty her first home; to Dan Hooker, who called the day after I almost decided to quit; to Jaime Levine, for "getting it" in ways that exceeded my wildest expectations.

And finally, to Robbie, my biggest fan, and to Debbie, for humoring us.

A portion of Chapter 5 appeared in Weird Tales #324 (Summer 2001) as "Doctor Kitty Solves All Your Love Problems."

A portion of Chapter 8 appeared in Weird Tales #333 (Fall 2003) as "Kitty Loses Her Faith."
