To God, who gave me the desire to write;
the editorial team at Barbour that gave me the opportunity;
and my critique partners/readers,
Kathleen Y’Barbo, Julia Rich, and Cathy Hake,
who gave me their honest feedback!
Except the LORD build the house
they labour in vain thatbuild it:
except the LORD keep the city
the watchman waketh but in vain.
PSALM 127:1
