A book is only as good as its editor. Beth McAuley edited my first two books and I went back to her for my latest because I knew I could trust her to 'get it'—and to get it right!

Working with Barbara on the index was both a pleasure and a relief. Barbara did an exceptional job with the index, and I was more than a bit relieved to not have to tackle the difficult work myself.
