My second book in this small collection is also special to me because:-
- It was the first book I wrote; a test case to ascertain whether or not I could actually write a book
- The subject was my first dog Ruby; a memoire of sorts. If I could not write about her then writing about anything would be hopeless.
- I self published this book; this is quicker than the usual route of using an agent then a publisher.
- This book (as well as my magazine articles) were hugely influential in finding a publisher for my subsequent books.
My Friend Ruby
by
Anna Chelmicka
It recounts how a dog can change a life.
It is true dogs can be of great help during difficult times, which is why so many people now during these uncertain times are getting puppies.
I have personally experienced how a dog can help during distressing moments.
Ruby, my first dog was not only a comfort to me when I was ill but was also hugely instrumental in life after retirement. It is because of her I now write and take photographs.
It was only when she went that I fully realized just how special she was and thought writing about her would be a good idea.
Because I self-published this book (an extremely interesting experience)
I have lots of copies available.
