Birthdays on Fire!

Leave a reply

Birthdays, Miss Penny speaking, I keep hearing that word. Whatever this birthdays thing is, it seems I’m ignored. Hum… I immediately don’t like birthdays. It all started with Susan going out for Jonathan’s birthday, I was left at home—not good. A few days later we went to Rose’s, at least I was included. On that occasion everyone broke into song, out of tune I might add, and a yummy looking chocolate cake, which I’m not allowed to eat because it will make me sick; good try I think they just want it all to themselves…sigh! Believe it or not the cake was set on fire and pushed right under granddaughter Karoline’s nose. Everyone seemed happy, but it looked dangerous to me. Karoline took a deep breath and blew the fire out, thank goodness, smart girl. Then there were other birthday phone calls, Susan told me June was birthday month in our family, if that’s true, why don’t I have a birthday, I think Susan had a birthday because of all the cards and flowers and then yesterday I heard Granny Betty has had 99 birthdays, wow! Would someone tell me what is special about a birthday and why don’t I have one? Susan says I have to wait until August. What does that mean? It’s all too confusing for a little dog. I don’t think I like birthdays but we’ll see what happens in August.

Down-Under, Boots & Spiders!

Leave a reply

I’m exhausted, Miss Penny speaking, we had visitors yesterday, lots of them. Now, I like visitors, but too many interfere with my napping. First Samantha and her mom Cathy came for breakfast. Sam lives in Australia, down-under, not sure where down-under is, it sounds like a strange place. Maybe that’s where Susan goes when she closes the bathroom door. I liked Samantha; she has a dog, actually I smelt two dogs—nice smell. Perhaps I can meet them one day; if I can find down-under. In the afternoon Jonathan, that’s Susan’s eldest and girlfriend Mireille came to visit. Jonathan has whopping big black boots, I like him he’s nice and gentle but those boots… one of these days they will swallow me up! I’m not kidding they are bigger than me. So, I keep my distance, wag my tail a lot, just to let him know I do like him. Susan says they are motorcycle boots for when he rides his Spyder. That doesn’t make sense spiders are little creatures. Oh well, some things I don’t understand—down-under and riding Spiders.

I’m Not Dirty!

Leave a reply

I’m not dirty! Miss Penny speaking. Susan plonked me in the bath today. She said I smelt like a dog. Now, that is an insult. I wasn’t ready for a bath because I was at the groomers only last week; in the middle of a thunderstorm. What a scary experience? It was a horror film. Most dogs, not me of course, are afraid of storms. Imagine the trembling, howling, whining and sheer panic in that tiny store. Now, there’s a doggie smell you want to avoid. Psst! The big dogs are the worst, oh boy do they carry on. I ignore them curl up in the crate and wait my turn. 

Susan’s giving me that look, she doesn’t believe me. I’ll change the subject and give you Susan’s news. As Susan’s assistant a reprimand is due here. Susan’s Reader Group News is not out yet and Episode 8 of The Blue Pendant is still waiting to be edited, so it’s not out as promised. And, a big hiccup: the release of Prelude to Sophie’s War is delayed until July. I guess Susan feels guilty because, as a peace offering she has recorded an excerpt on YouTube Click here to view. It’s quite good I think you’ll like it. So have a listen.

Three in a Bed!

Leave a reply

I survived the weekend without Susan, Miss Penny Speaking. It was tough, but I can take it. Psst… don’t tell Susan, I had a great time. Rose and Pierre have a little backyard, I can run in and out of without a leash. In the next yard was another little dog. How cool is that? And, we went for walks and I met hundreds of friendly dogs, perhaps not hundreds but there were a lot of new friends. Bedtime was a bit different. At home it’s just Susan and me. I ran upstairs, that’s neat, no stairs at home, Rose put me on the bed and we settled quite comfortably, then Pierre got in bed too—three in a bed—definitely warm and cosy, if a bit crowded. I was in the middle and had to wiggle and push my paws to get enough space. Rose and Pierre didn’t seem to mind although I noticed they were clinging to the edge of the mattress, muttering that they didn’t have much room. I used the sad tearful eyes, missing home, and they were fine. Susan picked me up on Sunday night, of course I was careful not to be too happy, but I was very happy and a little nervous she might leave again. So, that night I tried to sleep on top of Susan, making sure she could not get up and leave. Susan wasn’t too happy about that. I just used the sad eyes guilt trip. Susan says I’m talking too much, she has some messages for you.

Abandoned!

Leave a reply

I am shocked and traumatized!  Susan went away and left me… me… the princess! Miss Penny Speaking, I’m a bright dog, so I kinda got the idea something was going on. First I noticed, a tote being packed with a stack of notebooks and pens too many for one person. The next morning an empty suitcase case was put beside me on the bed; I was still snoozing. I opened one eye and thought What’s that doing there? Why is Susan standing at the closet door, sighing and muttering under her breath? Clothes were hauled out of the closet, inspected and either returned to the closet or thrown on me, well, the bed. But, it gets worse, my bed, blanket, toys, treats and kibble are packed in a big bag. Then I put two and two together, clothes plus suitcase plus my things meant we were going away. Oh, cool an adventure. And I was right; me, Susan and all the bags were put in the car, did I tell you I hate the car, but it’s okay today. Then, another treat we stopped at Rose and Pierre’s, but something odd happened they took my bags out of the car but Susan’s stuff did not appear in the hallway. You guessed it, Susan disappeared, the car drove off and left me behind; can you believe that? Rose gave me lots of cuddles and told me Susan was off to the Ottawa Independent Writers Retreat and Workshop in Westport and would be gone for a few days. Huh! See if I care! I lowered my head and made the best sad eyes yet and it worked more cuddles and treats and I settled in for the weekend.

Play and Away!

Leave a reply

No breaking news today: Noisy construction has delayed video recordings. But check out episode 7 of The Blue Pendant – Nothing is Fair in Love and War

Play & Away!

I love my walks, but I wish I could walk without my leash. Miss Penny speaking, I also like to play and being attached to Susan means I can’t run after birds and squirrels. I am sure they would like to play but I can’t get to them. Yesterday a cute rabbit ran by me, it took me by surprise and I almost choked, Susan said it was my fault for pulling, I say its animal cruelty. I only want to play with the rabbit. It’s been boring here. Susan spent all week formatting the new book and it’s ready for the Arc readers, whatever that is? Oh, Susan says it’s free advanced copy for feedback prior to the launch. Contact Susan this week if you’re interested as she’ll be away at the OIW Writers Retreat next weekend. WHAT! Susan away? I don’t like the sound of that. Where am I going? This is serious I don’t like being away from Susan. I think it’s rude not to tell me. I wonder if I’m going to Rose and Pierre’s house, that wouldn’t be too bad.

Aha! Cuddles

Leave a reply

Aha, cuddles! Miss Penny Speaking. When I’m not playing I am Susan’s assistant and I like to cuddle, so curling up with Susan while she writes, works well for me, I can supervise from this position. However, Susan’s not so keen, something about, it’s hard to type when I’m resting on her shoulder. I guess she needs to practise more, except she doesn’t and I get put in my bed. It does works when she is reading aloud. Reading aloud is all part of the writing process. I bet you didn’t know that; see I’m pretty smart. Once a book is finished and edited Susan reads it aloud, I get cuddles and a story. So, this has been a good week for cuddles. I have listened to Prelude to Sophie’s War from beginning to end and it is good. Sophie is a strong, determined woman, just like me. Well, sort of, I’m a dog and she’s a person. Although losing her father in a fire when she was only sixteen years old, left some nasty emotional scars. I don’t remember my father and I don’t have scars; it must be a people thing. That’s it for today, look out for Susan’s Reader Groups News next week. And, psst! I’ll let you into a secret… Susan has recorded a reading from Prelude to Sophie’s War due for release next week.

Tissue Mischief!

1 Reply

Breaking news: Susan’s Reader Group News, latest edition and Nothing is Fair in Love and War  Episode 7 of The Blue Pendant is ready for viewing on YouTube.

Mischief!

I’m a happy kind of dog, Miss Penny Speaking, but I can get into mischief. I’m not sure why but I love the feel of soft paper, especially tissues. This morning we had visitors, as you know I love visitors, except no one was paying any attention to me. ME! Miss Penny, ignored. So I looked around to see if I could get into mischief. I spotted it. A white tissue just popped up out of someones’s handbag. I snuck in grabbed the tissue and quietly carried it to my bed and ripped it into pieces. That got Susan’s attention, but not for long. All she did was take the tissue away from me and went back to talking. Huh… see if I care! I must think of something else. While I’m thinking I should tell you about the new book Prelude to Sophie’s War the new Sophie Series. Susan is very excited at she has the cover and although I’m a little ticked off at being ignored, I have to admit the cover is stunning. Here’s a sneak preview.

Prelude to Sophie’s War – A novel, first in the Sophie Series –

 

 Deep, hidden scars of a tragic childhood and romances gone wrong, bubble to the surface and haunt Sophie as she arrives in London to start nurse’s training during WWI. London cowers under bomb attacks from German Zeppelins. Innocent, terrified Londoners join shell-shocked, battle weary soldiers under Sophie’s care at Bartley Hospital. Battling her own demons she comforts others, risking her own wellbeing and nursing career. Will Sophie succumb to her demons or will she use them to strengthen her passions?

A New Friend!

Leave a reply

I found a friend who’s smaller than me! Yeah! Miss Penny Speaking, Susan took me on a car ride, I whined most of the way and Susan gets mad with me but I don’t like the car; I get shoved on the backseat and I’m not allowed to sit on Susan’s knee. She says it’s dangerous when she’s driving; I don’t see why, but then I’m a dog. But, there was a treat at the end of the journey, I’m pretty popular at this house, we’ve been before, there are lots of people who adore me and this time I met Romeo, a very handsome guinea pig. I was thrilled and ready to play, he’s actually smaller than me and makes funny squeaky noises, but he didn’t seem too eager to play. He munches on hay, so I thought I’d try it. Well, I’m not sure what Romeo sees in the stuff it’s dry and tasteless, I’m a girl of substance and I like chunks of chicken, I’m not even keen on the kibble, but even that isn’t as bad as the hay. That’s all from me today. Susan says to tell you Episode 7 of The Blue Pendant will be available on Monday as well as a new issue of Susan’s Reader Group News.

Put A Sock in It!

Leave a reply

Miss Penny Speaking, I thought that expression meant be quiet, but it’s my blog day; I can’t be quiet. I’m assuming the connection is socks. I love socks, especially when Susan takes off her socks. I wait and watch as she peels it off her feet then I pounce and grab the first sock and wait for the second one. I wish Susan had four legs like me then there would be four socks. I shake the heck out of it, I can only manage one at a time, then take it to my doggie bed and bury it and guess what, they disappear. I thought maybe there was a hole in my bed but then I saw Susan ‘unbury’ the socks and take them away. That’s okay because by bedtime tonight there will be another pair of socks. Do you think I have a sock fetish? Note, No blog last week, But I looked cute, even though I was squeezed into Susan’s Reader Group. Miss Penny tucked in blankets

So what has Susan been up to this week? The first of the Sophie series has gone to the editor. Susan is starting a new romance in the Narrowboat Romance series; Katie Saunders’ B&B is doing well, old guests return and new guests stir up trouble for Piers and Katie’s complicated romance.
