    seems that should be a sitcom and not a novel

    I suppose the greatest novels about dogs are “Lassie Come Home” and “Call of the Wild”.

    Sorry Agnes… but you see, a picture is only worth a thousand words…

     

    FIFTY thousand words is a very short novel…

    Most are at least 75,000 to 100,000.

    “War and Peace”, I think, is about half a million words, but it’s OK…. you don’t have to go that long for a first attempt.

     

    All I’m saying is… get writing.

    Or else you need a LOT more pictures.

    “The Story of Edgar Sawtelle” by David Wroblewski. Read it. It will stay with you for a long time.

    I’m glad she changed the subject from kitchen utensils.

    Generic Four-Line Dog Story:

    I had a dog,

    That dog was a pain in the neck,

    The dog died,

    That was the best dam` dog I ever knew.

    (That outline seems to cover a sizeable majority of dog stories, fictional or otherwise.)

    Give them what they want…or sell it anyway.

    It helps to have a story idea even if it is just a scene.
