Can you follow me back?

NEW RELEASE!
          (This isn't on Wattpad but I know some of you like to buy books for your kids in other places as well so I thought I'd let you know about my  new Rosco book :) )
          It's a puppy-sitting Fourth of July!
          Rosco is excited to learn that a four-month-old German shepherd is going to spend a whole week with the family over the star-spangled holiday until Bruno the pup turns out to be even more of a mischief-maker than Rosco, himself.
          When Rosco must take the blame for the little devil’s folly one too many times and watch the newcomer receive special treatment from James and Mandy, Rosco has finally had enough. He’s washing his ‘paws’ of Bruno once and for all.
          But when the first thunderous booms of the fireworks show on the Fourth of July send Bruno bolting into the forest in terror, will Rosco swallow his pride and save the little guy from the dangers lurking in the dark? Find out in this short, seasonal tale about empathy, selflessness, and responsibility, a perfect addition to your child’s summertime reading.
          *Recommended for ages 6-8. Grades K-3.
          Ebook only 99c right now. Also in paperback for $6.99! Also in KU.

Hi all! I hope you're doing well! The Spring & Summer short stories in my Calendar Dog collection are out and available at Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BYPKHXS3 in ebook, kindle unlimited, and paperback. This completes my Calendar Dog series, of which September-February are here on Wattpad for free. The spring and summer book contains stories for March-August with illustrations. Please check it out! Thanks!

One more free story for you! This one's been published by an online magazine so I can't publish it on Wattpad, but it's entirely free to read, with no signups or anything. Find it here: Mandy's Valentine's! https://www.the-office.com/bedtime-story/mandy.htm

Hi readers! 
          I know it's been a very long time since I've posted an update, and I hope you're all doing well! I've started putting some stories on Kindle Vella, where the first three episodes are always free. Right now there's ROSCO THE RASCAL'S CALENDAR DOG: SPRING & SUMMER, finally published! (Fall & Winter are already out in ebook and ppk). https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BSZZHLLQ/
          
          BLURB: 'A collection of short stories that will become the Calendar Dog: Spring & Summer book for ages 6-10. APRIL: When seven-year-old Mandy fails a spelling test, she tries to hide the evidence rather than face the consequences, but her lovable dog has other ideas. MAY: When ten-year-old James and his friends find a beehive in the woods, trouble follows. JUNE: A return to summer camp from a previous book!'
          
          ALSO, I have a new MIDDLE GRADE MYSTERY ADVENTURE series for ages 8-12 called Tales of the Lost & Found. The first book, The Haunted Lighthouse, is available on Vella right now.

Thanks for following me

Rosco the Rascal, Calendar Dog: Fall & Winter is now available in paperback and ebook on Amazon! This full-length book with 6 stories contains one short story for each month, September through February, and while most of these stories are published here on WP for free, if you'd like a physical book or to have them all in one place (in the ebook), here's the link: mybook.to/CalendarDog Thanks so much and have a great weekend! Ruff ruff!

Hello readers, 
          I just updated ALL of my short stories with fresh edits and polishing AND added two new FREE short stories to the Rosco the Rascal collection (one for September, and a new one for Thanksgiving), as you may have seen by way of Wattpad's alerts. 
          
          I did this because I've taken all of my short stories, had them illustrated, and turned them into an ebook and paperback collection called CALENDAR DOG and made them available for purchase on Amazon. I have a lot of readers who don't use Wattpad (they're missing out!) who'd rather have the physical books in hand. But you can get all of the stories here for free! 
          
          Please tell your friends or check out the purchase link if you'd like these stories all in one place: mybook.to/CalendarDog
          
          PS. The paperback is coming very soon - I'm just waiting on Amazon to flip the switch on making the purchase page live. :)
          
          Meanwhile, I'll be working on a Spring & Summer collection and posting the stories here. Thanks and have a great October!
