Monty and Rosie are the Border Collie dogs who keep an eye on that Susan Alison - or at least on her artwork and news of her books, which they round up and post on this blog on a regular basis.

As per Lesley Cookman's (cosy crime writer extraordinaire) request - It's a Writer's Life
Heh - I do love your avatar pic, Celtic Cat! It reminds me of a furpal from long ago - couldn't stay away from cake... Actually, hang on, that sounds like me - but this was actually a cat - with the original name of Fluffy...

All His Own Hair - blurb from back of book...
Ferne Tollivera is on a mission. Now that Sparrow, her ward, has reached nine years of age, she reckons he needs a male role model in his life. With typical efficiency she sets about finding a father-figure by drawing up a series of checklists for each candidate, and following a strict protocol for interviewing them.
So far, all the contenders have failed miserably to get enough ticks in the right boxes.
But Ferne is focused and nothing is going to stop her from fulfilling her responsibilities…
...except maybe a saboteur out to wreck her business; drunken neighbours; her unfortunate past from which it is so difficult to escape; her estranged mother; long-lost sister; and her Jack Russell, Merrie, who is not above galloping over and nipping any prospective role models she thinks Will Not Do.

White Lies & Custard Creams by Susan Alison: romantic comedy with a touch of mystery

White Lies & Custard Creams - blurb from back of book...
All Liz Houston wants is to keep her head above the financial white waters of her life. Somehow, though, other people, including ex-husband Hugh, repeatedly get in the way.
Hugh just wants a quiet life and to be there for the people he cares about. Caring about Liz does not lead to a quiet life…
Moocher, Liz’s Border Collie, wants to be where all the crumbs are; he wants to keep all his paws, but most of all he wants to keep Liz company as she rides the rapids of her life.
Add in odd-shoe-wearing lodger Simon, Git-next-door, a lost brother, an illicit fortune stashed away decades ago, a trio of part-time thugs, kidnappings, a tree-climbing tortoise and a dog-flap with a story of its own, and it becomes apparent that a few white lies (and custard creams) between friends are the least of Liz’s problems.
The ETSY shop has this widget which will show up here - underneath... Coo - posh or wot?
