Chicken Soup for the Soul: My Hilarious, Human, Heroic Dog

 

I have a tale in this recent Chicken Soup for the Soul books:

https://smile.amazon.com/Chicken-Soup-Soul-Hilarious-Companionship/dp/1611590787/ 

My tale is called "Gypsy," and it's a story about my rat terrier and how she appointed herself my guardian, companion and entertainer. You can find it on page 88.

 

And if you're a dog lover, I also have a nice dog tale in another Chicken Soup book: 


Chicken Soup for the Soul: Life Lessons from the Dog: 101 Tales of Family, Friendship & Fun

 It tells the story of my childhood beagle named Kleo, and how his faithfulness went beyond all expectations.

Technology Failure?

 When  my kids were young and technology, to me anyway, was a computer with MS-DOS and dot matrix printers, I was considered the expert in our family. Anyone with a tech question came to me.I enjoyed working with the high-tec stuff and felt I was helpful/useful.

But gradually over the years, it seemed more and more complex. Sometimes I guessed right--through sheer luck--and managed to hang onto my honorary title of Mom the Magnificent. 

But nowadays, I end up on tech support chats, waiting endlessly for someone to help me. 

Today is an example. I've been trying to get into my blog--this one--and just couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. It had only been a few days since my last post, but suddenly I couldn't get in. In desperation, I called my adult daughter away from whatever she was doing to help me. I had little confidence that she could help as I was positive it was my computer going bonkers and it wasn't my fault at all.

Well, after ten minutes, she had it "fixed." What was wrong was somehow I was logging in with the wrong sign-in...I was signing in as if I were a blog reader, not trying to post a blog of my own.

So I guess my honorary title is forfeited unless...wait, wait, I have an idea. No one seems able to figure out how to use apostrophes. I do. There's a title I can still hold!

I Write Like...

A fellow writer posted a link to a website that analyzes a few paragraphs of one of your books, and tells you who you write like. I checked it out and got Anne Rice. Cool!
