ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
My warmest thanks to those who helped bring this book
to life:
Beta readers Arianna Batzer and Barbara Masta provided
excellent and thoughtful suggestions for improvements.
Cover art critics Chris Ellinger, Deb Hansen, Cathy Chow,
Carolyn Green, and Steve Masta helped me to see things
through different eyes.
Alex Kourvo and Bethany Neal, presenters of the
Emerging Writers Workshop at the Ann Arbor District
Library, for an outstanding job of explaining
everything about writing and publishing the perfect
novel. Any shortcomings of this one are strictly the
fault of the author.
