Pup Culture!

I’m way behind on updates, but I wanted to share the spread Stella and I have in the latest issue of Pup Culture Magazine.  Michelle Macirella from Luminaria Photography is amazing, and so much fun to chat with too.

Stella and I have been getting to know each other on new terms over the past few months, and I’m continually amazed by the depth of her spirit.  She never lets fear get in the way of loyalty, (nor does she let my desire to sleep in get in the way of our morning jog).

I’m honored to be included in the magazine and love having these photos with one of my dearest friends.

This link will take you right to the article. I hope you’ll check it out.

Tomorrow is the big day!  WHY CAN’T I BE YOU hits shelves.

You might think I’d be used to this now, but you’d be wrong.  My belly does a backflip every time I think about it.

I’ll be on 13 Wham News This Morning toward the end of the 7:00 hour.  And chatting with Bill Kenower, Editor-in-Chief of AUTHOR Magazine on Author2Author Radio at 5PM EST.

And WCIBY has started to make appearances across the internet.  It’s SheKnows.com’s Red Hot Book of the Week, which means for a little while this morning, I was sharing webpage space with Bradley Cooper and a muscular gold guy.

Stella the Wonder Dog

There was a time, years ago, when a wild beast came to live with us over Thanksgiving weekend.  She ripped plants from their pots, barked at the cat, peed on the floor (but never outside), and drove Argo into a nervous tizzy.  We changed her name to Stella and worked desperately to find a way to … [Continue reading...]

My Trusty Dog Argo

I've been mostly absent from the internet for the past few weeks. It's hard to dive back in without an explanation, and oh, this is so hard for me to explain. Argo was diagnosed with terminal cancer a few weeks ago. We rushed him out to a specialist in Buffalo and spent days getting opinions and … [Continue reading...]
