Across The Pond

Published / by susancount / Leave a Comment

Sweet Dream meets Christa Noordover and goes across The Pond to The Netherlands. Christa was here to interview me, which was just ridiculous because she is infinitely more interesting.  Selah’s Sweet Dream will be featured in Paints & Quarters Magazine and the article will be in DUTCH. How fun is that?Christa 004IMG_1459

Bunnies – A True Story

Published / by susancount / 1 Comment on Bunnies – A True Story

In the first chapter of Selah’s Sweet Dream is a scene with Grandpa’s dog, Skunk. She finds a nest of bunnies and tries to bring them to the house, dropping them along the way. Because this scene seems to have charmed readers, I wanted to share that it was based on a true story.  We had an Australian Shepherd who found a nest and gently carried them home to us. She took us to the nest, and much to the dog’s anguish, we put the babies back and brought the dog in the house until the mother bunny could move her litter. The dog would have been happy to mother them.Sarah and babies June 2014 161

This is Selah feeding our pet bunny.

How it all started

On the first page of Selah’s Sweet Dream there is a scene where Selah is looking at a picture of herself as a three year old. She is leading a beautiful, twelve hundred pound, brown and white paint horse with a rope around his neck. The rope is dragging along on the ground and the horse looks like a giant enamored puppy as he follows her.

This is the picture from which the story was crafted.DSC05890
