مؤلف: Michael D. Barrett

Author biography I, the author, Michael D. Barrett, wish to express appreciation rather than speak of myself. This book isn’t about me and has nothing to do with me. I prefer to take this space to express my gratitude. First, I would like to thank the Good Lord and forever will, each and every day, for the path He has lead me on both before this experience and after. My heartfelt appreciation then goes to my son, who not only saved my life from a long, dark road through ten years of limited to moderate success as a bit actor in Hollywood, but is and always has been the most loving, wonderful child I could ever ask for. I was the founder and president of two companies (Kid Positive Inc.—a retail developmental toy store for children zero to eight years of age and Forty Shades of Green LLC.—a small real estate investment firm), but I can firmly state the most cherished accomplishment in my life is the raising of my now fourteen-year-old son as a single parent since he was an infant. Every moment of every day raising him into the fine young man he is has truly been a joy and I love him so very much. I would also like to thank from the bottom of my heart my own mother and father who were, in my humble opinion, the very best role models a child could ask for. (Sorry it took me so long to figure that out!) I am as well forever indebted to those loving and dear friends who played such a vital role in the manifestation of this book. I thank Christine Gallo for her invaluable help. I also thank the angel in my dream very, very much.
