Dedicated with love to my wonderful uncles
Richard Alton Walls
Who, even when I was very young, encouraged me to follow my dream of being a writer
Charles Yancy Walls
Whose support these many years has meant more than I can put into words
Alton Emmett McQueen
The true writer in our family, who taught me a great deal about my craft and saved me from making many embarrassing mistakes in my earliest books
And, finally, in memoriam, to Morris Neil McQueen
Whose letters still inspire me in so many ways, and whom I miss even more greatly with each passing day
