You're probably right ... Too much of a good thing

That's a damn fine looking dog...

Congrats on the books!

Hi Dave. What took you so long to get here? Glad you arrived! Adorable dog.
Have fun here. I plan to be around more when we settle down a bit--we're traveling and visiting right now, up in Newport, RI! Only here for a few more days, though.
Thanks for inviting me. -- Jan

Have a great weekend!

I think you would do very well in the Library. Thillers are hard to keep on the shelf. BTW, love the pic of the dog. He/she is a cutie.

I too visited you because of your beautiful English Bull Terrier. I have wanted one for so very long but live in apartments/units here in Australia and can't have a dog or cat. I met a full sized bull terrier today at the vets and he was so friendly and endearing. His owners are getting a girlfriend for him soon and intend to breed in a years time. They will sell their purebred puppies for $500au instead of the going price of double that. He was almost pure black. Cheers Dave, from Suzi in Queensland Australia.

That's too bad you had to give up that adorable little dog. We have a pit bull/Dalmation mix. I'm actually allergic to her saliva and break out in hives in any spot she licks me, but it goes away in less than 1/2 an hour. Strange kind of allergy, but I'm glad it's not worse.

Dave--
Software engineer? We live and learn about our friends. It's definitely possible to start a rara-avis ning site, but I'm not all that adept at starting things ... uh ... technically complicated?

Hi, Dave - I just bookmarked your blog page. Whoa, what great blurbs from HRH Bruen and Adrian McKinty! Congratulations. Best of luck with Bad Thoughts and your other upcoming publications.

Okay, Dave, I visited you for the puppy.

Wow! talk about sticktoitiveness--that sure is a long time to wait on a book! But it must be a good idea if you stuck with it that long.

Come visit me. I have some nonfiction books out for crime writers like Making Crime Pay: The Writer's Guide to Criminal Law, Evidence and Procedure.

I've visited Boston because Helping Hands is there (my monkey is a helper companion for a quadriplegic) but when I was there the "big DIG" was a major mess.

Cheers,

Andrea

Love your puppy.
