The response to the book has been
nothing short of overwhelming. It has been in large part to a great
network of support that started with family and friends whose
encouragement led me to realize I might be able to write this book as
well as the C&T Publishing family and their wonderful system of
support. Once the book was released, it has been the notes, emails,
messages, and phone calls that has shown me just how the book has
been embraced.
This book really belongs to all of you!
While I was in the midst of writing, I often thought about the
reader. It has always been my pleasure to share this work I do, and
now to know how well it has been received is a blessing beyond words.
So, while I cannot respond to all of the tidings I want to be sure
that all of you know of my deep gratitude.
Next year I have a busy travel and
teaching schedule so I hope to meet many of you and share in your own
work.
