Nice to meet you. I’m a writer too. I have to admit I’m pretty much agnostic re pugs, but I’ve certainly got nothing agains them and I like dogs generally so is that good enough?

If you can refrain from making jokes about pugs running into walls I suppose that will be good enough 🙂

Charlotte,
Great site and layout. I had a question. On the front page how did you get more than one menu tab? I have the same theme and I can only seem to have a “main page” tab and an “about” tab

You have to edit your menus in your dashboard. It’s under the appearance section I believe. Then you have to go to customize and choose that menu to be displayed (it’ll just be like menu 1 or something if you don’t name it anything special.) If that’s not clear enough, just tell me and I’ll send screenshots :p

Hmmm, I dunno. Clifford could be an okay name. You’d have to have a great beard, though.

I did not know a group of pugs was called a “grumble.” Somehow, that fits. :~)

Thanks for the follow and the nice comment. I may write the rest of the story someday, but right now I’m focused on keeping my name out there in the fishing mags that are publishing my work. The Sheba story did get picked up by a lit review though. They paid me $15.00. If I think about that long enough, I’ll be reaching for a bottle–and a gun. 🙂

Hey, Poe sold The Raven for only $9, so I’d say you’re doing pretty well!

Ha. I sold the story Survivor this morning to Fly Rod & Reel mag for 300.00.

LOL. If you like canned soup and PB&J sandwiches be my guest. It took a while to get established. I would suggest sending to mags though. It teaches you to write short, and how to deal with different editors. It’s a good way to break in.

A grumble of pugs. I like that. It’s right up there with a squabble of editors.

Is it just pugs, or dogs in general?

I love dogs in general but pugs are the best.
