Being Without Power

I have a story to tell you of something that happened in the Griffie household a couple of weeks ago. I was going to blog about it before, but then Ike hit Texas and caused so much devastation, that I didn’t want to post my small little complaints – or you might think I’m a whiner. The bottom line is … Read More

The Poop Review

My next foray into the world of reviewing dog websites took me to The Poop – “the site where a dog can have its day.” First of all, you have to like a website that calls itself The Poop. I happen to love double entendres. This site has a lot to recommend it, store, blog, pet adoption, recipes and more. … Read More

Finally on track . . .or not

Well, it has been a little bit of a technical curve, but I think we are finally on track. The first poll that I posted unfortunately lost the ability to accept votes. I hate when that happens, so I have reposted the poll and things are working much better now. Ok – Murphy has been hanging around waaaayy too much … Read More

Vote for your Favorite

I have just completed making some book trailers to help promote my YA novel, Misfit McCabe and I am looking for some people to look at the book trailers and then vote for their favorite one. The winner of the vote will then be posted to YouTube, YVideo, etc. Along with that, if you leave any comments of what you … Read More

Another Fun Weekend

Sorry for being away so long. We had a full weekend and I was just too tired to get to posting anything. I am working on my next website review, so watch this space for news of the next site to catch my attention. On Saturday, we went over to GrandMuttMaw and GrandPupPaw’s house and spent time with crazy Daisy … Read More

Book Trailer Completed

Well, it has been a fun few days putting together the book trailer for Misfit McCabe and I think I have it finished. I am giving it a little time to settle in, to make sure I don’t want to do 25 more edits to it before posting it on YouTube, YVideo, etc. I have posted the trailer to Griffie … Read More

Gourmet Sleuth Dog Treats Review

Here is my very first review of the sites that I run across when searching for dog treats. First of all, I should give my method for searching. It is actually quite simple. I open up a browser window (ok – all of you in the peanut gallery, I said BROWSER, not BOWSER) and in the Google search widget, type … Read More

A Labor Day Break

With today being part of a holiday weekend, I really didn’t get to accomplish much today in the way of writing, marketing, etc. I’ve mulled over some ideas, but that has been about the extent of things.

Another Holiday to Celebrate

Labor Day is upon us and I just thought I’d let you know how we celebrated today. We went to visit GrandMuttMa and GrandPupPaw and that crazy Daisy. We had a pretty good time. Daisy was even crazier this time for some reason than she was last time. But, after Mama helped GrandMuttMa to learn how to access her library … Read More

It’s My Turn

Finally! I can hardly get a paw in edge-wise these days. Mama has been working diligently on her book trailer and doing other things related to promoting Misfit McCabe, that getting time on the internet has been scarce for me. When am I supposed to look up new treat sites for crying out loud. Yes ~ it’s true, I do … Read More

Being Compared to Judy Blume

I am drifting on a cloud. . . my work has been compared to Judy Blume. Now, that may not seem like a big thing to some, but I remember a time when Judy Blume was THE author for young adult books, when the concept of young adult was in its infancy. I have just received a review of my … Read More

Coloring Page

I had a brainwave today and have been able to put it together and get it posted to the website already. As I was driving along on my way to the dentist, I realized that I had a black and white copy of the cover of Misfit McCabe which would make an excellent coloring page companion piece to the book. … Read More
