I would like to thank Phil Sexton and Rachel Randall of F+W Media for the idea for this book, and Cris Freese and Kimberly Catanzarite for helping me whip it into shape.
Also, a big shout out to my blog mates at Kill Zone (www.killzoneblog.com) and the many thoughtful commenters who make it one of the finest writing craft sites on the Internet.
Most of all, to my wife, Cindy, who demonstrates true love by reading all my work in its early stages, and stays calm.
