First and foremost, I would like to thank my parents, Ruth and Ronald Srail, for understanding the tremendous responsibility of parenting and for doing everything they could to provide a safe, loving, and harmonious home for my sister and me.
I would like to thank my nephew who sat an entire Saturday with me while I edited chapters. My niece was smart and went to a birthday party, but I have to thank her as well. The two of you carry a sweetness that I hope you hold onto throughout your life.
I also want to thank my friends who had to listen to me stress over this book, especially my dear friends, Chris de Lizer and Abby Miller.
The majority of my Axure work has involved the use of Shared Projects, and thus, I like to call my colleagues and collaborators "Axure Roommates". I have been very lucky to share new Axure tricks with great roommates, and I made many friends along the way: Josh Barr, Katrina Benco, Teryn Cleary, Jacqui de Borja, Kathy Mirescu, Beth Roman, Rachel Siciliano, Laurie Tvedt, and Sarah Wallace. We worked on rather grueling projects, but we all dived in and did the best we could.
Victor Hsu and Paul Sharer spent many Tuesdays with Ezra and me to walk us through new features. They listened to our feedback when Axure 7 was in its pre-beta stages. Thank you for taking the time, even when you were faced with a major deadline!
Finally, many thanks to the editors and staff at Packt Publishing: Ellen Bishop, Venitha Cutinho, Pankaj Kadam, and Azharuddin Sheikh. Your support, tremendous patience, and hard work were always appreciated by Ezra and me throughout the writing and editing process. In addition, we had technical reviewers who provided very thoughtful and helpful feedback: Sam Spicer, Ben Judy, and Jan Tomáš.
