I called it Atticus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this isn't meant to be a sales pitch. I just want to make sure it's clear that I know what I'm talking about. The amount of research that went into not only formatting my own books, but also creating a formatting software is huge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I researched everything, from tiny margin requirements, to the specific type of quotes to use (curly or straight, it makes a difference).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And yes, of course, that includes how to format an acknowledgment page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if all that makes sense, hopefully you'll come along with me as show you everything I've learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-an-acknowledgments-page\">What is an Acknowledgments Page?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as the name suggests, the acknowledgments page is the place where you, as the author, can thank all those people who\u2019ve helped you get the book out into the world. Although some of your readers will probably skip the page, it\u2019s a place for you to address directly those people you\u2019d like to thank.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Note: Both \u201cacknowledgement&#8221; and \u201cacknowledgment\u201d are acceptable spellings, although the former is more often used in British English and the latter in American English.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-to-put-your-acknowledgments-page\">Where To Put Your Acknowledgments Page&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In most books, you'll find the acknowledgments section in the back matter, often directly after the end of the main body of the work. However, some publishers\/authors prefer to put this section in the <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/parts-of-a-book\/\">front matter<\/a> of the publication. In this case, it usually comes after the title page and the copyright page, but before things like the foreword, prologue, or introduction.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It's really up to you where you put your acknowledgments section.<\/strong> You won't be breaking any rules if you decide to put it in the back instead of the front, or vice versa.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-acknowledgment-vs-dedication\">Acknowledgment vs Dedication<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At a glance, the acknowledgments page and the <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/dedication-page\/\">dedication page<\/a> may seem similar. While it's true that there are definite similarities, there are different conventions that are generally followed for each section.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The acknowledgment section is usually used to thank people who were in some way involved in the book publishing process. <strong>This is the place for the author to thank the editor, proofreaders, cover designer, researcher, or anyone who gave feedback on the book.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dedication page, on the other hand, is often limited to thanking one person to whom the book is dedicated. This can be someone who was involved in the book's creation, or not. Often, you'll see authors dedicate their book to a family member, spouse, or close friend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You don't have to have either of these sections in your book.<\/strong> Or you can have both. It's completely up to you!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n<section class=\"standard-cta testimonial\" id=\"cta-block_60a2bbb51823c\">\r\n    <div class=\"cta-inner row\">\r\n                    <div class=\"cta-media col-md-4\">\r\n                                    <div class=\"cta-media-inner\">\r\n                    \r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/Atticus\" alt=\"Check It Out\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">                        \r\n                                                    <i class=\"fa fa-play\"><\/i>\r\n                        \r\n                                                    <div class=\"img-overlay\"><\/div>\r\n                        \r\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Atticus.png\" alt=\"Atticus - the #1 Book Writing and Formatting Software used by thousands of authors.\" height=\"1384\" width=\"2210\">\r\n                        \r\n                        <\/a>                    <\/div>\r\n                            <\/div>\r\n        \r\n        <div class=\"cta-body col-md-8\" style=\"text-align:center;\">  \r\n                            <a class=\"cta-heading\" href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/Atticus\" alt=\"Check It Out\">\r\n                            <h3> Format Beautiful Professional Books<\/h3>\r\n                            <\/a>\r\n                        \r\n            <p>Easy to use, and and full of amazing features, you can quickly turn your book into a professional book.<\/p>\n            <a class=\"offer-button\" href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/Atticus\" alt=\"Check It Out\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Check It Out<\/a>        <\/div>\r\n\r\n            <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tips-for-making-the-most-of-your-acknowledgments-section\">Tips for Making the Most of Your Acknowledgments Section<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you're writing acknowledgments for a <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/how-to-write-nonfiction\/\">nonfiction book<\/a>, a novel, a dissertation, or a textbook, the following tips can help you determine what to include in the section.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-start-with-the-most-important-impactful\">Start With the Most Important\/Impactful<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you're not sure who exactly to include in your acknowledgments, jot down a list of people you'd like to thank. At first, just write down these people as they come to mind. Then, once you have them all down, put them in order based on the impact they've had on the book.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By starting with the most important or impactful person and working your way down, you can make sure everyone gets their well-deserved gratitude. Many authors thank their editor or agent early in the acknowledgment page, and then move on to other people.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you're an indie author, you may want to thank your cover designer or anyone who gave you feedback.<strong> You may also want to thank your partner or spouse for taking care of the kids or the pets while you spent hours writing the book.<\/strong> If they're an important figure in your life, then consider adding them to the section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-keep-length-in-mind\">Keep Length in Mind<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While you're considering who to thank in the section, keep in mind that most acknowledgment sections are no more than two pages long. There's no rule against going over that length if you feel you need to. But the more people you thank, the longer the section will become. And<strong> the longer the section, the less impact it will have on those who are in it.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can thank everyone in your life\u2014the barista at the coffee shop who kept you caffeinated, the babysitter who watched the kids while you were off doing research, the guy at the office who said something that helped you break through your writer's block. There's certainly nothing wrong with spreading the gratitude around. But it does somehow make it less of an honor for those who really helped you along during the process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, many readers are likely to skip the section\u2014especially if it's long. Granted, the section is not for them\u2014it's for the people you're thanking. But part of the magic of the acknowledgments section is that other people will read it, and they will see the impact those important people had on you and your book.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-get-personal-but-not-overly-so\">Get Personal, But Not Overly So<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the most out of your acknowledgments page, write from the heart and get personal. <strong>A simple thank-you is nice, but it's not nearly as nice as telling the person why you're thanking them.<\/strong> Here are a couple of examples to illustrate what I mean here.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example 1:<\/strong> Thank you, Jerry, for your encouragement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example 2: <\/strong>Special thanks to you, Jerry, for your encouragement. When I was doubtful, fearful, and downright insane with worry, you were there for me. I couldn't have written this book without you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put yourself in Jerry's shoes. Which would you rather read? Which would mean more to you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But use your judgment when it comes to how personal you're going to get. If your heartfelt thank-you includes a potentially embarrassing anecdote about a friend or loved one, think twice about putting it in. Or perhaps ask the person if it's okay to share something they might not want out in the world. The idea is to thank them for their important role in the process, not embarrass them, even if unintentionally.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-formatting-your-acknowledgments-section\">Formatting Your Acknowledgments Section<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When writing your manuscript, formatting is not at top of mind. But when you're done with the book and doing things like adding the acknowledgments, it's time to think about formatting. If you're traditionally published, this isn't something you'll need to worry about. But for a self-published book, you'll need to either pay someone to format for you or do it yourself. Luckily, formatting the entire book is easy with a tool like <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/atticus-review\/\">Atticus<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-format-yourself\">Format Yourself&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to add an acknowledgments section, all you have to do is use the <strong>Add Chapter function<\/strong>. Simply select the Acknowledgements page from the menu. The section will automatically appear in the back matter, but you can drag it anywhere you like. Once there, simply add your text and Atticus will do the rest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image shadow\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"316\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Acknowledgements-in-Atticus.png\" alt=\"Acknowledgements in Atticus\" class=\"wp-image-34021\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Acknowledgements-in-Atticus.png 316w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Acknowledgements-in-Atticus-156x300.png 156w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Acknowledgements-in-Atticus-12x24.png 12w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Acknowledgements-in-Atticus-19x36.png 19w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Acknowledgements-in-Atticus-25x48.png 25w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 316px) 100vw, 316px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Using the formatting preview option, you can see how the acknowledgments section will look in print or on various e-reader devices. <strong>You can choose from over a dozen pre-made formatting templates or create your own custom template.<\/strong> Once you're happy with everything, you can export an <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/book-formatting-file-types-explained\/\">EPUB file for ebooks<\/a> and a print-ready PDF file for print-on-demand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image shadow\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus-1024x549.png\" alt=\"Print Previewer Atticus\" class=\"wp-image-33938\" style=\"width:770px\" width=\"770\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus-1024x549.png 1024w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus-768x412.png 768w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus-1536x823.png 1536w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus-24x13.png 24w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus-36x19.png 36w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus-48x26.png 48w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Print-Previewer-Atticus.png 1661w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><em>Check out <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/Atticus\"><em>Atticus here<\/em><\/a><em> to learn more about this all-in-one writing and formatting tool.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what if you want to format your section in Microsoft Word?
