A few months ago I was made aware of a fundraising effort by a local pet charity involving poetry centered around pets – mainly cats and dogs. The idea was to have a collection of poetry published, and proceeds will go to help maintain Earl’s Heart Pet Food Pantry in nearby Anderson, Indiana. I submitted three pieces of prose centered around my experiences with furry, four-legged friends throughout my life, and I’m very excited that two of my three submissions were actually chosen to be included in the anthology! The collection was released today, on National Pet Day – because of course! Click the link or check out the Store page to order your copy today!

I Charlie! Chaz!!!! I know I haven’t written in such a long long while but I read and share everything you send. Congratulations!!!!! That’s so super cool.
I talked with your mom about a month ago (and then chatted for maybe an hour with Kurtis by text not long after that) and am so happy you and Chrissy have such a wonderful family life.
We’ll catch up soon!
Love always, your big little sis…
Mindy
P.S. I copied my dad. He needs to get on your mailing list.
