BOOKS… My very first book – the travel guide titled Tube-Sock Tricks, and 101 Other Tips for RVing Success – hit bookstores late last year. This delightful pocket-size volume also contains great ideas for campers and road trippers, even sailors and soccer moms! The whimsical illustrations by award-winning artist John Clarke make it ideal for armchair-traveling dog lovers, too.

Next on my extremely busy schedule is the launch of my innovative “Chaucer in the Classroom” book series. Parents, teachers, and librarians can read all about this exciting new project here.

MAGAZINES… My editor at The Armarium Press writes a regular column on traveling with pets for the new online magazine Automotive Traveler. How fortunate for her that I am available to consult on these articles from time to time. Check out our collaborative effort – “Travels With Chaucey” by Robyn McCarthy – at AutomotiveTraveler.com (named one of the best new magazine launches of 2007 by
Mr. Magazine). My well-informed readers will no doubt recognize our column title as an homage to John Steinbeck and his dog Charley.

WEB LOGS… As a trend-setting terrier, I have joined the world of online networking with my own MySpace page – featuring photos, trivia, and a web log about the trials and tribulations of being a published writer. My screen name is "Chaucer Dog," and you can access my page by clicking on the picture here.
