Acknowledgments

My eternal gratitude goes to Paula Munier, who has also been an inspiration and a dear friend for more than thirty years. Thank you to Writer’s Digest publisher Phil Sexton and his team, particularly Cris Freese who helped shape the work as my editor, but also to everyone behind the scenes, from the interior design, cover design, and sales—our mutual pursuit of originality, creativity, and practicality made the book what it is—and I appreciate what you do. Thanks to my online scribe tribe—Indi Zeleny, John K. Waters, Mardeene Mitchell, Meera Lester, and Paula Munier—whose input is priceless, and also to my editing clients who entrust me with their work. I also thank my brothers, Jim and Roy Reynolds, my sister Rozanne Reynolds, and all my nieces and nephews who have long shared my personal journey and continue to inspire me. A huge thanks to Teresa Aubele-Futch, the brilliant neuroscientist who co-authored Train Your Brain to Get Happy and Train Your Brain to Get Rich with me, and offered her expertise on this book, as well. And, last, but never least, thank you Jan Berry-Kadrie, for opening my eyes to possibility and encouraging me to claim my talent, my ambition, and my passion for writing.
