Roscoe and Spur and Bim!!

This is the story of Roscoe and Spur and Bim. Roscoe was doomed to death for biting. I took in the little bastard! Spur came from the 2007 biggest puppy mill bust the state of Maine has ever seen. He's nice, too! Bim is our newest addition. My first ever bought dog. Came from a wonderful miniature american shepherd breeder in England!!!! This blog is about the life of my little dogs and me, Amy Carlson! A silly self-indulgent blog that might bring a smile to your face. :D

So, I decided to write a book

A book about Roscoe. My publisher friend, Cheryl, has been bugging me for a while saying she really would like the book written while he is still alive. She doesn't like reading about dogs and then their death is always the last chapter. So, what the hell, I decided to do it.

I have twenty five pages!! I am actually amazed at how easy it is. The words just flow, my memory of him is strong. I got to the part about his first obedience trial and just writing about it made my heart pound!!!!

It seems interesting to me, but honestly with SO many books about dogs out there right now who is THAT interested in Roscoe? But, what the hell. It's more fun than I thought, so I am charging ahead. Once the weather improves I may lose my momentum, but right now I seem to manage about a page/day or more.
