1.      What was something you loved doing in recent times? 

        Never believe that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks…..I recently enrolled in an online COPYWRITING course and although I’m only half way through it, I’ve learned so much already! I love learning new things.

2.      What are the most important magazines for writers to subscribe to?

My favourite is Writer’s Digest…..either the printed version or even reading it online. There is so much help and guidance as well as superb articles to read.

3.      What’s your favourite under-appreciated novel? 

      Without a doubt, it would be SHANTARAM by Gregory David Roberts. It’s one of my favourite books. It’s big, it’s bold and it is utterly unique! This book is a spiritual journey into life - almost a meditative experience. It’s a book everyone should read.

When the call for submissions to the Paw Prints of Love anthology was made, I really loved the fact that the setting was a Western Australian seaside town. The first images that flooded into my mind were of course: sun, sand and surf. And what better romantic figure is there in such a setting, than a famous, sexy, champion Australian Pro Surfer? I chose Abbey to be the protagonist in my story and of course, she falls head-over-heels with said Pro Surfer.

“Catching Curls” is a story about helping others, and in doing so, finding love when you least expect it.

Love can call on us in the most unusual places. In this fictional seaside town of Stonecrest Bay, love is on the horizon and the one place you’re sure to run into the unexpected is The Funny Bone, Dee Chambers’ dog grooming salon.

A solo-dad comes to Stonecrest Bay to start a new life with his young son. A four-legged pastry loving friend causes havoc in more ways than one. A house-sitter finds herself in a hair-raising chocolaty situation. A man bent on finding a replacement farm dog finds more than he planned at the town fair. A woman gets more than she bargained for when she comes face to face with her ex. A new resident arrives with hidden secrets. And a pro surfer finds unexpected romance.

From reignited high school crushes to unexpected birthday surprises, readers will be swept up in these stories of young love blossoming, heartache and healing, old lost loves rekindled, and of new hearts connecting in Stonecrest Bay where the unpredicted could stroll around the next corner. There’s a story for everyone in this light-hearted collection of sweet romantic stories reminding us that it’s all for the love of dogs.

Enjoy this collection of stories from ten different Australian authors set in the fictional seaside town of Stonecrest Bay.
