Acknowledgments

This book’s draft was due a few weeks before the COVID-19 crisis hit our area and suddenly I was working and homeschooling from home. An extra thank you for Barbara for giving me a little extra time on the edits.

Sandy, Radclyffe, Ruth, and the small army of people who make the books happen at BSB. I continue to learn and grow with your guidance.

As always, my co-workers who’ve supported me through this process. This year has been a ride.

Aurora Rey who earned her bottle of bourbon through the first rough draft and providing her own unique blend of cheerleader, task master and mentor.

My wife for finding space in our life for me to write and picking up the pieces that I let slide when I’m in the midst of it.

My son. You are so patient and supportive when I’m doing this work.
