Because one dog wasn't enough, and the little guy (Pretty Boy Floyd) needed a home. Doc loves teasing him.

‘Tis release day! 🥳🥳🥳 is 12th in the series and I’m wondering exactly how we got here? It’s been a hell of a ride, hasn’t it?
Especially for Lana and friends! 😅 Speaking of, while trying to come up with a clever photo theme (and coming up dry) I had to really sit with what this book means to me and what it’s really “about.” It’s a book about a book (that ends up causing major probs, btw 🤭). It’s about being a , it’s about stories - a story within a story…maybe within a story. 🤣 And then I thought about the journeys I go through while writing a book. And then the photo clicked for me - the life of a book. But now we need a series. 🙃 so for the next few days (until my entertainment runs dry) I’m going to tote my book around with me and capture it in moments that every book lover can relate to - and of course throw in commentary. (Cuz when don’t I?) So here we are, planning the day and drinking coffee. A prime time to think about when you’ll fit your book in…if you’re not reading it already.
It’s gonna be a bit post heavy since I’ve been on hiatus for a little while. But. I. 👏🏻 Am. 👏🏻 Back. 👏🏻 Lock up your sons! 🤣 (jk, jk, I stole that line from Frasier 🙃)
Most of all, friends - thank you for your support. This release wouldn’t be possible without your continued support! 💕 And by the by, has anyone told you today that you look absolutely amazing?? Because you do. ✌🏻
PS - Egg Drop Dead is in the background for a reason …why? 😏 I’ll never tell. 🤫 😉 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Her imaginative storytelling turns cute animals and prominent historical figures into sleuths and always ties to a greater good.

The fact that is releasing in a month to the day almost escaped my radar. Key word: ALMOST. But thankfully I realized it in the nick of time. This book is highly anticipated by…me. 😆 It was no easy feat to write about a book inside of a book that has to do with the book inside the book. Try saying that 10x fast!
It was a challenge worth pursuing and I loved the way it turned out. And I really hope ya’ll do too!
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and are doing beyond well. If no one told you today, don’t forget, you look absolutely amazing! 💕
