Best laid plans.

The decision to add a "thank you page" to Molly Danger book one was a last minute one. I wanted to add it because I am grateful to you all for helping the book become a reality. Unfortunately  because of the time table we found ourselves under in order to make our newly amended shipping date, we had to scramble to finish the production work. In the chaos, we missed a page of backers names. This was our fault ( Karine and I) and I couldn't be more embarrassed about it.

The following backers:

Gerry Alanguilan 
Paolo Belfiore 
Bryan Q. Miller
Gypsy fundraiser 
Charles Sydnor Jr. 
James Janowsky 
Trey Alexander 
Ty Buttars 
Dan Veltre 
Juan Pineda 
Brooke Adriana Steele 
Jonathan Barnett 
Forgerell
i Joe Weitz 
Janna Bennett 
Brad dancer 
Ami Harper
Henrik Lindhe 
Jesse Chen 
Coniah Grimes
Russell Solomon 
Jim Segulin
Jerry Hamlet
Chris Brogan
Lionel Kempf
Alex Johnson 
Allen Bearce 
christopher keszycki
Sass

Will receive a little something extra with their packages when they arrive. I can only apologize profusely and promise you that your names will be added with the reissue of and will get a special addendum in book two.
