Acknowledgements are an opportunity to express your gratitude to the people who supported, encouraged, or contributed to the creation of your book. Whether they offered personal encouragement, professional advice, practical help, or simply believed in you, this is your chance to recognize their contribution.

These exercises will help you identify whom you want to thank, reflect on how they supported you, and decide what you would like to say. By the end of this workbook, you will have a clear set of notes that can be developed into a personal acknowledgements page with the help of AI.

Fill out your answers directly on this webpage. Please note that your answers cannot be saved automatically, so make sure to complete the workbook in one sitting or keep the browser tab open while you work.

Once you're finished, you can copy your answers, generate an AI writing brief, or print the workbook as a PDF for future reference.
