What do you do to you spoil
your pets? Our Jacks are
family. They have multiple beds and enough gear and toys to fill several bins.
What treat will your pet practically
knock you over to get?
Cheese. They can hear a cheese wrapped a mile away.
What food item will your pet
turn up his/her nose to? Riley
eats anything. His sister is picky. She has to smell everything new before she
tries it.
What is your pet’s favorite
thing to do? My dogs love
car rides and long walks by the lake.
What is your pet’s LEAST
favorite thing to do? They
HATE baths.
Do you talk to your pets?
And if so, do they answer? I
talk to them all the time. I even ask one where the other is. They usually tell
on the other. They also listen as I plot stories and read dialogue.
Is the dog in your story
in To Fetch a Villain based on your dogs? No. The dog in To Fetch A Thief was based on
Disney. She’s also the model for Bijou in my new cozy series, the Jules Keene
Glamping Mysteries. The first book will be out October 2021.
Where did you get your idea
for your story? I write the
Delanie Fitzgerald Mysteries, and my sleuth is a sassy PI from Richmond, VA.
She has a computer geek/hacker partner, and he has a furry sidekick, Margaret
the English Bulldog. I decided to give the gang another adventure outside of
the series in this novella.
How long did it take you to
write your story? It took
about two months to plot, write, and revise my story.
What makes your pet’s tail
wag? Anybody who visits the
house/yard/cul de sac and snacks.
What makes your tail wag? I get excited when I meet readers who want
to talk about books and mysteries.
