The Molly Chronicles

My human won!!!!!

My human entered NaNoWriMo and she won. She wrote a 50,000 word novel in the month of November. In fact she made it with two days to spare. I was so excited I ran around the back yard and did the Molly dance, which is running around the yard and the garage and the house in a frenzy of happiness.

Oh my goodness!

I sneaked a peek at my human's new novel, and she does have a Molly character in the book. But you won't believe what she's doing to that poor dog. The Molly in the book is a news reporter, and while she's at the Occupy Berkeley movement, she gets sprayed with pepper spray, and winds up in the pound. I was so upset, I couldn't read any more. I hope there is a happy ending for Molly. When I was a young dog, I was in the pound due to no fault of my own. And it was horrible. It was scary and I was all by myself.  That's where my human found me, and we became best friends. I hope the Molly in the story is okay.

Well hello again,
You're probably wondering how my human is doing with her new novel. Yes, she's working on the sequel to Temporary Address. She said she was going to post excerpts on her blog, and she will. But for now she is just writing junk. You see she entered NaNoWriMo. It's a challenge to see if you can write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November. And for now, she's going for quantity and not quality.
She did promise that she would include a dog character or maybe even two in the book. And she's even going to include a publicist dog named Molly. I feel honored. But after all the work I've done, it's only fair. Molly won't appear until the second half of the book, she says. Anyway, she'll probably have something to share with you in December, so please be as patient as a border collie.
Did I tell you about the French rolls incident? Well it's not important, and besides, it wasn't my fault.

Wags and licks to you all,
Molly the collie

More rave reviews are comming in for TEMPORARY ADDRESS:

A real page turner. A book you can really sink your teeth into.

TEMPORARY ADDRESS - a great read in the bathtub. And when we get back from dog park, my human is probably going to give me a bath.

Hey, ho, this is Molly the dog, coming to you live from dog park where I'm interviewing the average dog on the street. Most dogs have read the new best-selling book, TEMPORARY ADDRESS and, so far, the reaction has been extraordinary:

A great read. it had me barking with excitement. I recommend TEMPORARY ADDRESS to all canines and humans who appreciate good literature.

Pugnacious. Captivating. Better than a squirrel in a garbage can.

Riveting. The only things missing were gophers and bacon snacks. And it wasn't about dogs.

Hi. It's me, Molly the blogging collie. I can't believe it's been a whole people week since my last post. And so much has happened. The paperback version is out. You can buy "Temporary Address" on paperback on line (cheapest through Lulu.com) and the e-book is available through Amazon.com.( and, in a couple of days, through anyone else on line.

I've been working so hard, I hardly had time to scratch a flea or sniff a hydrant. (It's always important to stop and smell the hydrants.) But it's all worth it. If you want to see what it's all about, you can read it by clicking the photos on the right of this blog. But it's way better in the published versions. My human was not very careful when she entered the posts on this blog. A collie would never have allowed that to happen. Okay, licks and tail wags to you all. I'm going to go have second breakfast.

Whew, what a day! I wouldn't wish it on a cat. First of all, my human took me on two very long walks because we had to get the wheels of the car aligned. Normally, I love very long walks, but we had to walk next to the traffic, and my human made me walk on heel. That meant I couldn't do my important dog work - I couldn't do olfactory reconnaissance of the area. And I couldn't mark my territory. I must say, I did a very good job walking on heel, and my human praised me for my restraint.

After that, my human played a very cruel trick on me. She said we were going for another walk, but we ended up - I can't bear to say it - we ended up at the vet's office, where they poked me and hurt my delicate  body. 

I'm still working on the book cover for "Temporary Address" (a collie's work is never done.) but the art work is still not uploading. I hired a printer who is very good, but wasn't able to get the art work the correct size. He hasn't responded to my last e-mails and is probably busy chewing on a piece of rawhide. His work is very stressful.

Molly the collie  signing off with a big bow wow to you all.
