So, There’s a Pooker on My Pillow (Pooker Book Web Page) has been published.

Woot!

That doesn’t mean I’m done, however. I promised on the last page of Pooker that I would write about all of our pets. So here are the working titles in the order I plan to write them:

  1. How I Got My Shadow- about our Schipperke dog, Shadow
  2. Sophia the Miracle Kitty- about our American Long-Haired calico cat, Sophia
  3. Charlie the Charmer- about our Siamese cat, Charlie
  4. Oliver All Over- about our daughter’s family’s Chihuahua/Rat Terrier mix dog, Oliver
  5. You Can’t Ignore Nora- about our daughter’s family’s Miniature Siberian cat, Nora
  6. Amazing Gracie- about our rescued Eastern Cottontail bunny, Grace

Keep in mind that this could change, but that’s my thinking right now.

Bear in mind that each book will have a core theme, just like Pooker. I won’t reveal those just yet, however. I want you to come back & check out my progress, so I’ll add little tidbits of information as I go. I look forward to this journey!

  • I wrote another book too! So about 12 years ago I self-published a book co-written with my brother Dan. It was based upon the social convention of automatically saying "fine" when someone asks, "how are you?". My mother, my brother and I actually brainstormed "snappy answers to 'how are you?'" and I compiled them, added clip-art to go along with most of them, and found a self-publishing web site, lulu.com which I used to self-publish the book. I've never really done any marketing for it so it's only sold a few copies, mostly iBooks and mostly in Great Britain. My genealogy is mostly British as…
