Earlier I had posted that you can now buy Lady Wynwood’s Spies, Volume 7: Spinster on my website. But I forgot to mention that for a limited time, if you buy the eBook or the paperback , you’ll also get the annotated edition eBook with Easter Eggs, behind-the-scenes tidbits, research notes, and random author commentary FREE. Once the book goes into Kindle Unlimited, I can no longer offer the annotated version on my website, so be sure to get it now before the book goes up on Amazon. 10% off coupon code for ALL BOOKS I finally got all the Lady Wynwood’s Spies regular paperbacks in my store, and if you use the coupon code website10 , you can get 10% off all the eBooks and paperback books in my shop! NOTE: If you’re waiting for the Special Edition paperbacks, those will be available in my Kickstarter later this month. Get 10% off https://camilleelliot.com/shop/

Let me tell you the story of Pepper.
Pepper is a Labrador mix who belongs to a certain editor who shall remain nameless.
Pepper was an adorable puppy and remains a darn cute dog. He is black, with short legs and a barrel of a body. He also loves the cat he lives with.
Snickers is a German Shepherd/Labrador/Pit Bull/name any dog you can think of mix who is a butthead.
She went through SIX ROUNDS OF DOG TRAINING because she is such a butthead. Even our trainer said she was a butthead and that we got a difficult dog for our first pet.
Lovely.
While lots of other dogs responded well to their owners, ours did not listen. The trainer had to be—ahem—a bit forceful with her to get her to stop misbehaving.
It’s kind of like having the problem child in a classroom full of brilliant overachievers.
For my May 2010 book, my editor asked me to write about a dog. Naturally, being a dog owner, I jumped at the chance.
Except I am the owner of one of the biggest buttheads on the planet. Not a very heroic character for a novel.
Not having much experience with obedient dogs, what was I to do?
Pepper to the rescue.
In my May 2010 release, I introduce you to …

Oh yeah, in my last two novels, I'm written in a dog. But, I can't use mine...too wild and crazy.
But, I can invent my dream dog and give it the same name...LOL.
Great post!
Lynn, why is it we have the wild dogs and it seems everyone else has perfect dogs???
Jeanette--LOL you're absolutely right!
