Dedication Pages (aka: Gratitude in Author Form)

November 23, 2022 by Amanda Zieba

Like many others this holiday season, I’m taking time to be thankful. In the writing realm of my life that looks like examining author thank you notes, writing poems, and in today’s case, sharing the dedication pages from several of my books. Often times it is in these few lines where gratitude shines the brightest, at least, for me.

But before I share my own heartfelt dedications, here are a few gems the internet provided me while I mentally prepped to write this post.

From: Graduate Texts In Mathematics – An Introduction To Algebraic Topology By Joseph J. Rotman

From: City Of Golden Shadow (Otherland, Volume 1) By Tad William

From: Mortal Gods (The Goddess War, 2) by Kendare Blake

From: A memoir of heartbreak, hookups, love, and brunch by Matteson Perry

E.E. Cummings Self-Published this book with the help of his mother and dedicated it to the 14 Publishing Houses who turned the collection down

From: The Land Of Stories: Beyond The Kingdoms By Chris Colfer

From: ??? (no attributions found online)

From: My Lady Jane by Cynthia Hand

From: All Your Perfects by Colleen Hoover

And here, are my thank yous, my dedications, my gratitude laid plain for all (who read my books) to see. If you’d like to pick up any of these books, you can find them all from a variety of purchasing options (Me directly, Amazon, Bookshop) by clicking here.

Finally, affiliate marketing is promoting a product or service in return for a commission. When you purchase a product or service through one of my links, I earn a small part of the sale. There is NEVER any extra cost to you. If you looked up the same product on the same site through another source besides my website, the price will still be exactly the same. 100% of the time.

I also NEVER link to products or services that I don't 100% believe in. I will never tout a company or their goods if they are disreputable or if I don't believe them to be worthy of your hard-earned money. In no way are my affiliate links a scam.
