      Dedicated to my Publisher, Paul Rabinovitch, who is not only a true gentleman, but goes out of his way to be kind, compassionate and caring. He has gone above and beyond the call of duty with my work many times. Most importantly, I have found him to be honest in his dealings.

      Thank you is never enough, Paul. I truly appreciate the fact that you have been so patient with my mistakes, my learning and changing my mind so much. You are above the hundreds of millions.

      All of my books are now available as e-books, and I feel honored and humble as well as grateful.
