Welcome!

Broken is a book about dogs. These are survival stories, stories about dogs protecting their loved ones at any cost, and dogs who have changed the lives of people they have encountered. What is more remarkable about these dogs is that they are all challenged. They are blind. Deaf. Missing limbs. Imperfect in any number of ways. And yet they have managed to live in a way that can teach us about living in the moment, revelling in life, letting go of the past and seeing the world as a beautiful place to be.

I AM LOOKING FOR SUBMISSIONS FOR POTENTIAL PUBLICATION. If you know of a remarkable dog who has amazed you with his story, consider sharing it with the world! You are welcome to submit a short outline to be filled in once approved, or a detailed and complete narrative. I cannot accept 'heresay'; all stories must be verifiably sourced. I am especially interested in tales that move and inspire people without heartbreak. No death scenes, please! (My 'pet' peeve is a dog story with a sad ending.)

Please e-mail your submission to brokendogstories@gmail.com .

If your story is well-suited for this publication, I will contact you. Please make sure to provide at least TWO ways to reach you. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this project I would be happy to address them at the above link. Thank you for visiting my site and I look forward to hearing from anyone with a tale to tell! For more info and latest developments scroll down...

Day One!!! Launch Day!

Here we go!  I am really excited to launch this blog and am hoping to hear from those of you who would like to share your story.
I intend to donate a portion of the proceeds to an animal welfare group, although I have not decided which one. At this point I am looking for dog stories only, although depending on how this goes I may branch out to other animals in the future.
If you know of anyone who would be a resource for me, let me know! I'll need as much help as I can to get the word out!
Once I have gathered some material I will obtain an agent and move forward from there. Please be patient and understand this can take a little while.
At this time I cannot promise reimbursement for your submissions. I may revisit this at a later time...
Finally, don't worry too much about editing your story. That's what I'm here for! Of course, I'll work with you so we are both in agreement about the finished piece. It is, after all, YOUR story.
Thanks and I'm excited to hear from you!
