SSRO2: Daddy's Home ✓

∙ ABOUT ∙

Daddy's Home was the story that I enjoyed writing  the most because in all honesty, this was the only story that I've written that really didn't give me much of a headache.

ABOUT THE STORY:

     SSRO2: Daddy's Home is, as you may all know, a book that I made solely to thank the readers who read the first book. The ending of SSRO1 was supposed to be the official ending of the whole story, but a lot of my readers wanted to see how Dane and Damien's story would continue, so I wrote SSRO2.

     To make this a little unique, I'll be explaining Book I and Book II for you guys to further understand the whole story.

     Well it's more of me just simply talking about it and giving you guys how the story came about. Hopefully you enjoy.

SIT, STAY, ROLL OVER (BOOK I)

     Book one was basically just a story that I did on a whim. If you guys aren't aware, in the past, I have been an author who does mature fantasy/action/paranormal/mystery stories. I never really wrote a pure romance book because it wasn't my thing. So for eight years, I have been practicing and perfecting those types of genres.

     But one day, as I was staring at my dog, I looked at my sister and asked, "What if our dog turned into a human?" and that was basically it. Sit, Stay, Roll Over was born.

     Sit, Stay, Roll Over was also a story that felt personal to me because this was the first story that had a character that was somehow close to my personality, which was Dane. The Dane that isn't serious and actually stupid is basically me, which was why it was fun writing his POV.

     I also made a lot of titles before Sit, Stay, Roll Over made it to the final cut. I don't quite remember most of them but I do recall that there was Daddy's Pet and A Man's Best Friend as one of my few title options.

     It was my first time to write a story that had a daddy-ish feel to it as well. I wasn't good at writing cute stories but that's how I wanted SSRO to become to further widen my story genres. (But we all know how that went down).

     Now for the characters...

     Hunter aka Damien was supposed to be a REAL dog that will really turn into a human. But then I thought that it would be just another shapeshifting story. So I just made a logical explanation about the 'dog turned human' event that Dane somehow 'witnessed.'

     Some were also confused but to explain it better, Damien went on a major transformation to look and act like a dog. His fangs was done surgically, the growling was also trained to him, and actually, I was planning to make Damien have brown eyes before, and since Siberian Husky's have blue eyes, he was operated to have one. But I changed that and just made Hael pick Damien to have a Siberian husky counterpart because of his blue eyes.

     And believe it or not, Dane was supposed to be WAY younger than he originally is in the story. I was planning to make him a college student where Todd would be his other love interest, but then I thought it would have been better if Todd was from his past, and that Dane would be a working man to make him a lot more mature.

     Dane's personality was also supposed to be a rather fun type of character who isn't serious with life, but that personality was transferred to Todd. So I made Dane the mature character so he and Damien's personality would clash better.
