Dedication
I would like to dedicate this book to the
man who taught me the importance of read-
ing and thus imagination. He taught me the
importance of words and writing. He taught
me the importance of self-confidence. He
taught me most of all that nothing short of
following my dreams was acceptable.
Thanks, dad—I miss you. MM
