As a bit of a fan of time travel stories (watch this space for news on my next release SECRETS IN TIME), I am currently reading Nicole's UNTIL THE STARS BURN COLD and loving it but back to writers and our inseperable muses. In the interests of equality...a dog story. Over to you, Nicole...
We have a dog, his name is
Hercules and he’s about twelve years old. I say about, because we aren’t
exactly sure of his birth date. My husband rescued him. Hercules had been
mistreated and his original ‘owner’ had threatened to get rid of him (and not
in a I’m taking him to an animal shelter
way.) I don’t know what breed is, I’m guessing he’s a Border Collie cross. So,
Hercules became a part of the family as soon as he walked through the door and
the children have grown up alongside him. He is very loyal, quiet and sedate.
But my youngest daughter has wanted a ‘little dog’ for a very long time. For
years we have said no, and that one dog is enough. But finally, last year we
gave in.

So when we bought this... see
above... fuzzy, white pooch for our daughter, little did we know that we were
not introducing an angelic marshmallow into our home, but a demonic hell queen
from the seventh strata of the netherworld. Queen Hayley has usurped power and
we are now living in servitude. All who oppose her will are gutted, beheaded
and shredded before their eyes... well, at least that’s what happened to her
squeaky toys. Destroyer of high heels, slayer of socks and demolisher of all in
her path... all hail the queen!
Okay, well maybe she’s not
demonic, but just very naughty... and really, really cute. 
When I’m not pandering to Hayley,
I write historical and paranormal romances. Misrule’s Mistress will be released
this Christmas (20th December). It’s a medieval story which is
centred around the twelve days of Christmas, ending with the Feast of Misrule.
Thanks so much Alison for
inviting me to drop by.
