And dogs are perennial. I've seen editors say in print if it's about dogs or Lincoln, they want it. <BR/><BR/>I've been trying to get one of my cats to co-write a mystery with me, but working for a living? They're having none of that.Carleen Bricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01433203126527081458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9117689460622632628.post-78341424173005353542008-05-09T09:42:00.000-05:002008-05-09T09:42:00.000-05:00I think "Marley and Me" is about all the dog/book ...I think "Marley and Me" is about all the dog/book genre can take...but then there are all sorts of kitty/murder mystery books, so what do I know?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, great post, and now I want to start cooking risotto.

Fitzgerald would be a trim little Scottie. Steinbeck maybe a Lab? <BR/><BR/>Kristen--Yes, I promise to post some recipes. You'll become a convert, I know!<BR/><BR/>Joanne--The Dog genre is certainly hot right now, isn't it? But, I'm probably too late.

Now you have me on a weird tangent. If different breeds of dog represent different kinds of writers, what breed would each of us be? Would horror writers be pit bulls, dobermans and rottweilers? Would chick-lit writers be chihuahuas? Would Hemingway be an English bulldog? Barbara Cartland a standard poodle (with a diamond collar)? Would Phillip Roth be a basset hound? <BR/><BR/>I would be a mutt :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00665632105920753931noreply@blogger.com
