Last Call Lounge (20 page)

Many, many thanks to all the people who helped me find out what this book was supposed to be.  Thanks to all the members of the Antidote workshop, thanks to Casey Fleming and Greg Oaks for their unflagging encouragement and support.  Thanks to Marc Dolan and Mat Johnson and Robert Boswell for teaching me how to make this book better than I knew it could be. Thanks to David MacLean for the support, the criticism, the visits to Houston and the ridiculousness that came along with you.  And, to my wife and my daughter, thanks for absolutely everything that matters to me.
