ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

First, I would like to thank my two fabulous Barbaras. A big THANK YOU to my editor, Barbara Ardinger, Ph.D., who helped bring reason to my madness. And Barbara Rainess from Pedernales Publishing for all her guidance, and for a little sprinkle of copal! I would also like to thank Jose Ramirez, the other half of Pedernales, for making my book into what I envisioned. Gracias!

I would also like to thank Dr. Mark Van Stone at Southwestern College for pointing my research in the right direction.

Many thanks to my critique circle, Maureen Chiacchieri, Ann McGrath, Faith Dion, and Tracy Winslow.

Finally, I want to thank my family for their unconditional love and for always believing that I would be a writer. I love you more than anything.
