And they gave me the confidence that comes from knowing people would pay for my work.Stories included in this collection:An ApprenticeshipAngels and ApesThe Woman Who Made Me a Man AgainWhat's Your Bq?Unfinished Business, Unsettled DebtsSaturday in the ParkMulbray Twenty-One TimesTo Jerry Williamson in Springtime
