All my family and friends, for their seemingly endless supply of encouragement and sometimes pastries. Angel Lucia, Malia Fox, Gayla Green, Meg Dancausse, and Kellie Bransford were especially generous with their time and feedback as I got this book ready for prime time.
Last and most of all, Jim and Ella, for supporting me in ways both practical (such as putting food on the table) and emotional (such as putting food on my desk), and for cheerfully tolerating the high number of cobwebs and pizza nights it took to make this happen.
