How a Dog Inspired a Legend
Hi
everyone, I’m Patrick Parish writing a ‘guest’ blog for Nancy, I mean Bub’s Dragon. I’ve had the
distinct pleasure of taking a very real notice at Bub becoming a very real star
in Nancy’s AMULET that’s literally done what very few, if any, debut novels
have ever done before. AMULET has gone from a following of zero, to being a
bestseller in four very short months, and is giving every indication of ‘going
viral’ as they say! We both are extremely grateful for all of the very
enthusiastic feedback and support, and we’re working very hard to continue to
give what we seem to do best, tell a great story!
I
thought it might be appropriate to share a bit of insight as to the inspiration
of Bub (Renegade) in AMULET. You see Bub was actually a very real dog that was
my mom and dad’s. I’m very much honored, and I believe that my parents are also, that Nancy
has done an exceptional job of capturing the personality and essence of Bub in
her writings, and I can assure everyone with a little ‘insider knowledge’ that
that does continue in TABLET OF THE SUN which is the next novel in the
DRAGONBLADE SERIES. Bub in real life was definitely every bit the dog that Bub
in AMULET is… ok so with the exception of being able to ‘ice’ things lol. His
‘limitations’ however never interfered with his love of life, and his adorable,
funny, ‘wee warrior’ attitude!
I’m
very appreciative that Bub will live on in the DRAGONBLADE SERIES and I believe
that he’s definitely giving his hoo hoo
from where he is now! Many thanks from me, mom, and dad to Nancy for immortalizing the very best of a
companion that we loved.
Hi...
ReplyDeleteI noticed that your book was also waiting to be reviewed by Cath 'n' Kindle Book Reviews. I've realized that it's important to get people reading and reviewing your book, but it's hard to find strangers to do it.
I was wondering if you'd like to trade - I can read your book and review it, and you could read mine and write a review? I love reading and I was thinking of becoming a beta reader anyway, but I realized that I could also benefit while helping other people.
I look forward to hearing from you. Good luck with your writing!
Sincerely,
Marc Finks
