I am a cat person, but I am IN LOVE with the picture of that sweet little trash-eating dog! And I know all about feeling guilty re buying your beloved furbabe diet food, I had to do that for years with my former-street-cat Maria, an adorable, scrappy, no-pet-but-me-me-me, gray tuxedo who would eat anything she could get to, if not aggressively stopped. Oh, the whining! Oh, the sad face!

Your description of “morbid and inventive” is enough to make me want to read that collection, as well as your own, so thanks for that. And no, there is nothing wrong with working from bed, I do an awful lot of my writing scrunched up under the covers, as well, one of my cats snuggling into my shoulder or competing with the computer screen. It’s just so damn comfortable.

Best wishes with all your work. Anyone who can edit for many hours a day and whose specific advice is just “write” deserves an award in my book!

I love the collection, Jodi. Although I can’t say the same for dogs : ( Thanks for reading and leaving a comment–nice to see you here. xo

That’s because I am a dog person and the only reason I leave my house every day is for the dog. I’ve read a lot of good publicity about Mary Miller’s new story collection. Look forward to reading.
