Today is the birthday of my muse, #EmilyDickinson, and an inspiration for my novel, CLOSE YOUR EYES, HOLD HANDS. Fun fact: many of her poems can be sung to the theme from Gilligan‘s Island. Not kidding, this is totally legit.

Mehso-so

My wishes on the ending were not granted,

I‘m at a bit of a loss on the rating. As this is YA I wouldn‘t recommend it for that audience—kids got it rough enough already; don‘t make it harder on them.

I choose this pic for the dog (“India street dog 😢)

I could not, would not *ever* sell my dog. CA Mega Millions is currently $159 Million.

I win it, first thing I‘m gonna do is GET MORE DOGS! 🐕

This book better have a happy ending.

An unbelievable Deus ex machina ending, with return of dog.

TheBookHippie I‘ve read all this authors books and love every one. 5mo
Soscha I think her own background was the basis of elements of this book? Don‘t know the details though. 5mo

#BookBinge Day 9: I didn‘t realize Melvin Burgess shares my initials - and he is so prolific too with such edgy themes. Got these books from a librarian friend who was downsizing her collection when she left Singapore. More of my haul from her beloved collection here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-eIv

The caption COULD be: “Look who wants to devour this book.” This is, after all, the only one of my novels with a dog as a critically important character. But two things: 1) This pic is here because this novel was published nine years ago this week. 2) My beloved Jesse is licking her chops because I am posing her with cheese on my head, a dog-plus-book trick I learned from Pamela Klinger Horn. Happy reading, my friends!

Julsmarshall Beautiful pup! 8mo
Hooked_on_books I‘ve used the cheese lure trick for photo taking as well! My dogs have sure all loved cheese! 8mo

Emily Dickinson, one of my muses, died on this date in 1886. My novel, CLOSE YOUR EYES, HOLD HANDS, includes some of my own thoughts about the remarkable poet. My narrator Emily Shepard‘s devotion to her work was inspired by my own obsessions when I was in college at (yes) Amherst, and walked past her home almost daily. Incidentally, you will see a lot of Emily Dickinson in a short story I have arriving this summer. Stay tuned.

marleed Oh, very cool! 10mo
