  I
• 4:36
  look
• 4:36
  forward
• 4:37
  to
• 4:37
  our

  conversation.
• 4:38
  Before
• 4:39
  we
• 4:39
  get
• 4:39
  into
• 4:40
  the
• 4:40
  details
• 4:40
  of
• 4:41
  your

  book,
• 4:41
  Judy,
• 4:42
  I
• 4:42
  would
• 4:43
  love
• 4:44
  to
• 4:44
  find
• 4:44
  out
• 4:45
  a
• 4:45
  little
• 4:45
  bit
• 4:45
  about
• 4:47
  what
• 4:48
  brought
• 4:48
  you
• 4:48
  to
• 4:48
  children's
• 4:49
  book
• 4:49
  authorship.
• 4:50
  Can
• 4:50
  you
• 4:50
  tell
• 4:51
  us
• 4:51
  the
• 4:51
  story
• 4:51
  about
• 4:52
  what
• 4:52
  brought
• 4:52
  being
• 4:53
  a
• 4:53
  children's
• 4:54
  book
• 4:54
  author
• 4:54
  means
• 4:55
  to
• 4:55
  you?
• 4:56
  I
• 4:56
  decided
• 4:57
  to
• 4:57
  write
• 4:57
  a
• 4:57
  story
• 4:58
  about
• 4:59
  my
• 4:59
  dog
• 5:00
  Penny
• 5:00
  that
• 5:00
  we
• 5:01
  adopted
• 5:02
  because
• 5:02
  I
• 5:03
  wanted
• 5:03
  to
• 5:03
  give
• 5:03
  her
• 5:04
  a
• 5:04
  voice.
• 5:05
  I
• 5:05
  could
• 5:05
  see
• 5:05
  that
• 5:06
  she'd
• 5:06
  been
• 5:06
  through
• 5:06
  a
• 5:06
  lot.
• 5:07
  I
• 5:08
  wrote
• 5:08
  the
• 5:08
  story
• 5:08
  actually
• 5:09
  on
• 5:09
  the
• 5:09
  way
• 5:09
  to
• 5:10
  pick
• 5:10
  her
• 5:10
  up
• 5:10
  at
• 5:10
  the
• 5:11
  transport
• 5:12
  in
• 5:12
  Niagara
• 5:12
  on
• 5:12
  the
• 5:12
  Lake
• 5:13
  Ontario.
• 5:14
  And
• 5:14
  on
• 5:14
  the
• 5:14
  way,
• 5:14
  we
• 5:15
  had
• 5:15
  three
• 5:15
  and
• 5:15
  a
• 5:15
  half
• 5:15
  hours
• 5:16
  to
• 5:16
  put
• 5:16
  in
• 5:17
  and
• 5:17
  I
• 5:18
  just
• 5:18
  asked
• 5:18
  myself
• 5:19
  the
• 5:19
  question,
• 5:20
  how
• 5:20
  will
• 5:20
  this
• 5:21
  dog
• 5:21
  feel
• 5:23
  after
• 5:23
  all
• 5:23
  she's
• 5:24
  been
• 5:24
  through?
• 5:24
  She
• 5:24
  lived
• 5:25
  free.
• 5:26
  Then
• 5:26
  she
• 5:26
  was
• 5:26
  put
• 5:27
  in
• 5:27
  a
• 5:27
  high
• 5:27
  kill
• 5:28
  shelter
• 5:29
  and
• 5:30
  then
• 5:30
  she
• 5:30
  wondered
• 5:30
  what
• 5:30
  was
• 5:31
  going
• 5:31
  to
• 5:31
  happen
• 5:31
  to
• 5:31
  her.
• 5:32
  And
• 5:32
  then
• 5:32
  she's
• 5:32
  in
• 5:32
  a
• 5:33
  truck
• 5:33
  traveling
• 5:34
  2,400
• 5:35
  km
• 5:36
  from
• 5:36
  Texas,
• 5:36
  USA
• 5:38
  to
• 5:38
  Canada
• 5:39
  to
• 5:40
  meet
• 5:40
  who?
• 5:41
  US.
• 5:42
  So
• 5:42
  just
• 5:42
  wondered
• 5:43
  how
• 5:43
  this
• 5:43
  dog
• 5:43
  would
• 5:43
  feel.
• 5:44
  It's
• 5:44
  an
• 5:44
  incredible
• 5:45
  story
• 5:45
  because
• 5:45
  I
• 5:46
  have
• 5:46
  to
• 5:46
  tell
• 5:47
  you
• 5:47
  one
• 5:47
  of
• 5:47
  my
• 5:47
  first
• 5:47
  guests,
• 5:48
  Aaron
• 5:48
  Murphy
• 5:49
  on
• 5:50
  episode
• 5:50
  15.
• 5:52
  She's
• 5:53
  a
• 5:53
  commercial
• 5:54
  airplane
• 5:54
  pilot
• 5:55
  and
• 5:56
  in
• 5:56
  her
• 5:56
  spare
• 5:57
  time
• 5:57
  flies
• 5:58
  animals
• 5:59
  around
• 6:00
  the
• 6:00
  country
• 6:00
  for
• 6:01
  the
• 6:01
  SPCA
• 6:02
  to
• 6:02
  make
• 6:02
  sure
• 6:03
  that
• 6:03
  they
• 6:03
  go
• 6:03
  from
• 6:04
  where
• 6:04
  they
• 6:05
  may
• 6:05
  not
• 6:05
  have
• 6:05
  any
• 6:05
  chance
• 6:06
  at
• 6:06
  adoption
• 6:07
  to
• 6:08
  somewhere
• 6:08
  where
• 6:09
  they're
• 6:09
  waiting
• 6:10
  to
• 6:10
  have
• 6:10
  animals
• 6:11
  to
• 6:11
  adopt.
• 6:11
  That's
• 6:12
  wonderful.
• 6:12
  I
• 6:13
  know
• 6:13
  Aaron.
• 6:13
  Oh,
• 6:14
  do
• 6:14
  you
• 6:14
  know
• 6:14
  Aaron?
• 6:15
  We.
• 6:15
  I
• 6:15
  met
• 6:16
  her
• 6:16
  online
• 6:16
  and
• 6:16
  we
• 6:17
  talked
• 6:17
  back
• 6:17
  and
• 6:17
  forth
• 6:18
  because
• 6:18
  of
• 6:18
  our
• 6:18
  stories.
• 6:19
  I
• 6:19
  think
• 6:19
  that
• 6:19
  brought
• 6:20
  us
• 6:20
  together.
• 6:20
  Oh,
• 6:21
  that
• 6:21
  is
• 6:21
  terrific.
• 6:22
  I
• 6:22
  just
• 6:22
  think
• 6:22
  it's
• 6:23
  so
• 6:23
  admirable
• 6:23
  what
• 6:24
  you're
• 6:24
  both
• 6:24
  doing
• 6:24
  and
• 6:25
  we'll
• 6:25
  get
• 6:25
  more
• 6:25
  into
• 6:26
  your
• 6:27
  story.
• 6:28
  Did
• 6:28
  you
• 6:28
  ever
• 6:28
  think,
• 6:29
  I
• 6:29
  want
• 6:29
  to
• 6:29
  be
• 6:29
  a
• 6:30
  children's
• 6:30
  book
• 6:30
  author?
• 6:32
  Was
• 6:32
  there
• 6:32
  any
• 6:33
  foundation
• 6:34
  for
• 6:34
  this
• 6:35
  prior
• 6:35
  to
• 6:36
  you
• 6:36
  adopting
• 6:37
  your
• 6:37
  dog
• 6:38
  Penny
• 6:38
  Girl?
• 6:39
  Yes,
• 6:39
  Penny
• 6:40
  Girl
• 6:40
  is
• 6:40
  her
• 6:41
  fond
• 6:41
  name
• 6:41
  that
• 6:42
  my
• 6:42
  husband,
• 6:42
  Strange
• 6:43
  started
• 6:43
  calling
• 6:43
  her.
• 6:44
  So
• 6:44
  that's
• 6:44
  why
• 6:44
  we
• 6:44
  decided
• 6:45
  to
• 6:45
  call
• 6:45
  the
• 6:45
  book
• 6:45
  that.
• 6:46
  Before
• 6:46
  Penny
• 6:47
  Girl
• 6:47
  came
• 6:47
  into
• 6:48
  your
• 6:48
  life,
• 6:48
  did
• 6:48
  you
• 6:49
  have
• 6:49
  any
• 6:49
  inspiration
• 6:50
  at
• 6:50
  all
• 6:51
  about
• 6:51
  being
• 6:51
  a
• 6:51
  children's
• 6:52
  book
• 6:52
  author?
• 6:53
  No.
• 6:54
  I
• 6:54
  was
• 6:54
  actually
• 6:54
  a
• 6:55
  X
• 6:55
  ray
• 6:55
  and
• 6:55
  ultrasound
• 6:56
  technologist
• 6:57
  in
• 6:57
  my
• 6:58
  former
• 6:58
  life.
• 6:59
  Okay.
• 7:01
  This
• 7:02
  whole
• 7:02
  inspiration
• 7:03
  started
• 7:04
  for
• 7:04
  you
• 7:05
  as
• 7:05
  a
• 7:05
  children's
• 7:06
  book
• 7:06
  author
• 7:07
  the
• 7:07
  moment
• 7:07
  you
• 7:08
  decided
• 7:08
  that
• 7:08
  you
• 7:09
  wanted
• 7:09
  to
• 7:10
  a
• 7:10
  doctor,
• 7:10
  a
• 7:10
  rescue
• 7:11
  dog?
• 7:13
  No,
• 7:13
  actually,
• 7:14
  it
• 7:14
  happened
• 7:14
  that
• 7:15
  the
• 7:15
  story
• 7:15
  was
• 7:15
  written
• 7:16
  and
• 7:16
  sitting
• 7:16
  on
• 7:16
  my
• 7:17
  phone
• 7:17
  for
• 7:17
  four
• 7:17
  years.
• 7:19
  I
• 7:19
  had
• 7:19
  retired
• 7:20
  from
• 7:20
  ultrasound
• 7:21
  and
• 7:22
  it
• 7:22
  was
• 7:22
  2020.
• 7:24
  Toby,
• 7:24
  our
• 7:25
  previous
• 7:25
  dog,
• 7:25
  had
• 7:26
  passed
• 7:26
  away.
• 7:26
  My
• 7:27
  heart
• 7:27
  was
• 7:27
  torn
• 7:27
  out,
• 7:28
  and
• 7:28
  I
• 7:28
  said
• 7:28
  to
• 7:29
  my
• 7:29
  husband,
• 7:29
  I
• 7:29
  want
• 7:29
  to
• 7:30
  try
• 7:30
  rescuing
• 7:30
  a
• 7:31
  dog
• 7:31
  in
• 7:31
  our
• 7:32
  lifetime.
• 7:33
  So
• 7:34
  it
• 7:34
  was
• 7:35
  after,
• 7:36
  like,
• 7:36
  probably
• 7:36
  four
• 7:37
  years
• 7:37
  later
• 7:37
  that
• 7:38
  I
• 7:38
  decided
• 7:39
  to
• 7:39
  take
• 7:39
  a
• 7:39
  children's
• 7:40
  writing
• 7:41
  course.
• 7:41
  I
• 7:41
  saw
• 7:42
  online,
• 7:43
  took
• 7:43
  it,
• 7:44
  and
• 7:44
  thought,
• 7:45
  geez,
• 7:45
  I
• 7:46
  already
• 7:46
  have
• 7:46
  a
• 7:46
  story
• 7:47
  that
• 7:47
  I
• 7:47
  could
• 7:48
  publish.
• 7:48
  So
• 7:48
  that's
• 7:50
  where
• 7:51
  I
• 7:51
  decided
• 7:51
  to
• 7:52
  actually,
• 7:52
  the
• 7:53
  story
• 7:53
  was
• 7:53
  triple
• 7:54
  the
• 7:54
  size
• 7:54
  it
• 7:54
  is.
• 7:55
  It
• 7:56
  was
• 7:56
  divided
• 7:56
  into
• 7:57
  three
• 7:57
  stories.
• 7:57
  So
• 7:58
  Penny
• 7:58
  Girl's
• 7:58
  Rescue
• 7:59
  is
• 7:59
  book
• 8:00
  one.
• 8:00
  It's
• 8:01
  always
• 8:01
  interesting,
• 8:02
  too.
• 8:02
  When
• 8:02
  I
• 8:02
  talk
• 8:03
  to
• 8:03
  most
• 8:03
  children's
• 8:04
  book
• 8:04
  authors,
• 8:05
  there's
• 8:05
  generally
• 8:06
  a
• 8:06
  no
• 8:06
  one
• 8:06
  and
• 8:07
  done.
• 8:08
  And
• 8:08
  in
• 8:08
  your
• 8:08
  case,
• 8:08
  you
• 8:09
  actually
• 8:09
  wrote
• 8:10
  three
• 8:10
  books
• 8:11
  in
• 8:11
  one,
• 8:11
  even
• 8:11
  though
• 8:11
  it
• 8:12
  maybe
• 8:12
  at
• 8:12
  the
• 8:12
  time,
• 8:12
  you
• 8:12
  didn't
• 8:13
  realize
• 8:13
  you
• 8:14
  had
• 8:14
  three
• 8:14
  children's
• 8:15
  books
• 8:15
  in
• 8:16
  one
• 8:17
  writing.
• 8:18
  That's
• 8:19
  right.
• 8:19
  Even
• 8:20
  when
• 8:20
  I
• 8:20
  took
• 8:20
  the
• 8:20
  children's
• 8:21
  course,
• 8:21
  I
• 8:21
  thought
• 8:21
  I
• 8:22
  intended
• 8:22
  this
• 8:22
  book
• 8:23
  to
• 8:23
  be
• 8:23
  a
• 8:24
  early
• 8:24
  chapter
• 8:25
  book,
• 8:26
  and
• 8:26
  that's
• 8:26
  why
• 8:27
  it
• 8:27
  was
• 8:27
  3,000
• 8:28
  words
• 8:29
  long
• 8:29
  and
• 8:29
  probably
• 8:30
  going
• 8:30
  to
• 8:30
  get
• 8:30
  longer.
• 8:31
  But
• 8:32
  after
• 8:32
  doing
• 8:32
  the
• 8:32
  children's
• 8:33
  picture
• 8:33
  picture
• 8:34
  book
• 8:34
  course,
• 8:35
  I
• 8:35
  thought,
• 8:35
  geez,
• 8:36
  I
• 8:36
  could
• 8:36
  split
• 8:37
  this
• 8:37
  up
• 8:37
  and
• 8:38
  it
• 8:38
  would
• 8:39
  be
• 8:39
  really
• 8:39
  fun
• 8:40
  to
• 8:40

  learn
• 8:44
  about
• 8:44
  dog
• 8:44
  rescue
• 8:45
  and

  adoption.
• 8:46
  What's
• 8:46
  amazing,
• 8:47
  too,
• 8:47
  is
• 8:47
  that
• 8:48
  on
• 8:48
  the

• 8:53
  words.
• 8:54
  And
• 8:55
  so
• 8:56
  at
• 8:57
  the
• 8:57
  time
• 8:57
  you
• 8:57
  wrote
• 8:58
  it,
• 8:58
  you
• 8:58
  didn't
• 8:58
  realize,
• 8:58
  oh,
• 8:59
  I
• 8:59
  got
• 8:59
  3,000
• 8:59
  words.
• 9:01
  Now
• 9:01
  I've
• 9:01
  got
• 9:01
  three
• 9:01
  children's
• 9:02
  picture
• 9:03
  books
• 9:03
  or
• 9:03
  the
• 9:03
  foundation
• 9:04
  for
• 9:04
  them.
• 9:05
  Pretty
• 9:05
  amazing.
• 9:06
  Thank
• 9:06
  you.
• 9:07
  When
• 9:08
  you
• 9:08
  were
• 9:08
  putting
• 9:08
  this
• 9:09
  all
• 9:09
  together,
• 9:11
  did
• 9:11
  you
• 9:11
  think
• 9:11
  about
• 9:13
  your
• 9:13
  children's
• 9:14
  book
• 9:14
  business
• 9:15
  plan?
• 9:15
  Did
• 9:15
  you
• 9:16
  have
• 9:16
  a
• 9:16
  business
• 9:16
  plan
• 9:17
  for
• 9:17
  your
• 9:17
  children's
• 9:18
  book?
• 9:18
  No,
• 9:20
  no.
• 9:20
  That's
• 9:20
  all
• 9:21
  I've
• 9:21
  been
• 9:22
  learning
• 9:22
  as
• 9:22
  I.
• 9:22
  Go,
• 9:24
  and
• 9:24
  that's
• 9:24
  what
• 9:24
  I
• 9:24
  find.
• 9:25
  I
• 9:25
  find
• 9:25
  most
• 9:25
  children's
• 9:26
  book
• 9:26
  authors,
• 9:28
  their
• 9:28
  whole
• 9:28
  goal
• 9:29
  is
• 9:29
  to
• 9:30
  actually
• 9:30
  be
• 9:31
  able
• 9:31
  to
• 9:31
  get
• 9:31
  a
• 9:32
  published
• 9:32
  children's
• 9:32
  book
• 9:33
  in
• 9:33
  their
• 9:33
  hands
• 9:34
  that
• 9:34
  they
• 9:35
  can
• 9:35
  flip
• 9:35
  through
• 9:35
  and
• 9:35
  go,
• 9:36
  oh,
• 9:36
  my
• 9:36
  goodness,
• 9:37
  look
• 9:37
  at
• 9:37
  this.
• 9:38
  This
• 9:38
  is
• 9:38
  fantastic.
• 9:40
  And
• 9:40
  that's
• 9:41
  the
• 9:41
  big
• 9:41
  thing.
• 9:41
  The
• 9:41
  now
• 9:41
  what?
• 9:42
  It's
• 9:42
  always
• 9:43
  interesting
• 9:44
  because
• 9:44
  then
• 9:44
  you
• 9:45
  start
• 9:45
  down
• 9:45
  the
• 9:46
  road,
• 9:46
  and
• 9:46
  I
• 9:46
  noticed
• 9:47
  you
• 9:47
  have
• 9:47
  three
• 9:47
  formats.
• 9:48
  You
• 9:48
  have
• 9:48
  a
• 9:48
  soft
• 9:49
  cover,
• 9:49
  a
• 9:50
  hardcover,
• 9:50
  and
• 9:51
  an
• 9:51
  ebook.
• 9:52
  So,
• 9:52
  yes.
• 9:53
  Was
• 9:53
  there
• 9:54
  a
• 9:54
  strategy
• 9:55
  behind
• 9:56
  each
• 9:56
  one
• 9:56
  of
• 9:56
  those
• 9:57
  formats,
• 9:57
  or
• 9:58
  did
• 9:58
  you
• 9:58
  just
• 9:59
  think,
• 9:59
  you
• 9:59
  know
• 10:00
  what?
• 10:00
  I
• 10:00
  need
• 10:01
  all
• 10:01
  three
• 10:01
  of
• 10:01
  these
• 10:01
  formats.
• 10:03
  Like,
• 10:03
  how
• 10:03
  did
• 10:03
  that
• 10:04
  journey
• 10:04
  for
• 10:04
  you
• 10:05
  start?
• 10:06
  I'm
• 10:06
  hybrid
• 10:07
  published
• 10:07
  through
• 10:07
  Miriam
• 10:08
  Laundrie
• 10:08
  Publishing,
• 10:09
  and
• 10:09
  they
• 10:09
  suggested
• 10:10
  having
• 10:10
  all
• 10:11
  three
• 10:12
  because
• 10:12
  the
• 10:12
  hardcover
• 10:13
  is
• 10:13
  very
• 10:13
  good
• 10:14
  in
• 10:14
  a
• 10:14
  school
• 10:14
  situation
• 10:15
  where
• 10:15
  it's
• 10:16
  being
• 10:16
  used
• 10:16
  a
• 10:16
  lot
• 10:16
  and
• 10:17
  in
• 10:17
  the
• 10:17
  library,
• 10:18
  whereas.
• 10:19
  But
• 10:20
  it's
• 10:20
  more
• 10:20
  expensive.
• 10:21
  So
• 10:21
  a
• 10:21
  lot
• 10:21
  of
• 10:22
  people,
• 10:22
  especially
• 10:23
  purchasing
• 10:24
  online,
• 10:26
  a
• 10:26
  soft
• 10:26
  cover
• 10:27
  is
• 10:27
  all
• 10:27
  they
• 10:27
  want
• 10:27
  to
• 10:27
  spend
• 10:28
  the
• 10:28
  money
• 10:28
  on.
• 10:29
  Then
• 10:29
  there's
• 10:29
  the
• 10:29
  next
• 10:30
  level
• 10:30
  of
• 10:31
  people,
• 10:31
  or
• 10:31
  same
• 10:32
  people
• 10:32
  that
• 10:32
  want
• 10:33
  to
• 10:33
  have
• 10:33
  a
• 10:33
  book
• 10:33
  to
• 10:34
  have
• 10:34
  on
• 10:34
  their
• 10:34
  child's
• 10:35
  tablet,
• 10:35
  which
• 10:36
  is
• 10:36
  nice
• 10:36
  for
• 10:36
  traveling
• 10:37
  and
• 10:37
  not
• 10:37
  having
• 10:37
  to
• 10:38
  bring
• 10:38
  all
• 10:38
  the
• 10:38
  books
• 10:38
  with
• 10:38
  you,
• 10:39
  so
• 10:39
  you
• 10:39
  just
• 10:39
  have
• 10:39
  them
• 10:39
  right
• 10:40
  on
• 10:40
  there.
• 10:40
  They
• 10:41
  suggested
• 10:41
  that
• 10:41
  it
• 10:42
  certainly
• 10:42
  helps.
• 10:43
  I've
• 10:43
  been
• 10:43
  interviewed
• 10:44
  over
• 10:44
  50
• 10:45
  children's
• 10:45
  book
• 10:45
  authors,
• 10:46
  and
• 10:46
  in
• 10:46
  the
• 10:46
  beginning,
• 10:47
  I
• 10:47
  was
• 10:47
  trying
• 10:47
  to
• 10:47
  support
• 10:48
  each
• 10:48
  guest
• 10:49
  and
• 10:49
  buy
• 10:50
  the
• 10:50
  soft
• 10:50
  cover
• 10:51
  version.
• 10:51
  And
• 10:52
  my
• 10:52
  wife
• 10:53
  said,
• 10:53
  oh,
• 10:53
  my
• 10:53
  goodness,
• 10:54
  like,
• 10:54
  where
• 10:54
  are
• 10:55
  you
• 10:55
  going
• 10:55
  to
• 10:55
  put
• 10:55
  all
• 10:56
  of
• 10:56
  these
• 10:56
  books
• 10:57
  out
• 10:57
  if
• 10:57
  you
• 10:57
  keep
• 10:58
  interviewing
• 10:58
  children's
• 10:59
  book
• 10:59
  authors?
• 11:00
  And
• 11:00
  eventually
• 11:00
  I
• 11:01
  just
• 11:01
  had
• 11:01
  to
• 11:01
  decide
• 11:02
  that
• 11:02
  the
• 11:02
  tablet
• 11:03
  would
• 11:04
  be
• 11:04
  a
• 11:04
  good
• 11:04
  place
• 11:05
  to
• 11:05
  have
• 11:06
  the
• 11:06
  library.
• 11:07
  And
• 11:07
  that's
• 11:08
  true.
• 11:09
  As
• 11:09
  you
• 11:09
  can
• 11:09
  see,
• 11:09
  when
• 11:10
  I
• 11:10
  was
• 11:10
  showing
• 11:10
  you,
• 11:11
  we
• 11:11
  downloaded
• 11:12
  your
• 11:12
  book.
• 11:12
  It
• 11:13
  looks
• 11:13
  beautiful.
• 11:14
  It's
• 11:14
  very
• 11:14
  vibrant
• 11:15
  on
• 11:15
  an
• 11:15
  iPad.
• 11:16
  It's
• 11:17
  nice.
• 11:17
  It's
• 11:17
  not
• 11:17
  the
• 11:17
  same
• 11:18
  as
• 11:18
  holding
• 11:18
  a
• 11:19
  book.
• 11:19
  Holding
• 11:20
  a
• 11:20
  book,
• 11:20
  but
• 11:21
  in
• 11:21
  some
• 11:21
  cases,
• 11:22
  that
• 11:22
  just
• 11:23
  happens
• 11:23
  to
• 11:23
  be
• 11:23
  the
• 11:23
  way
• 11:24
  it
• 11:24
  works
• 11:24
  out.
• 11:25
  And
• 11:25
  when
• 11:25
  you
• 11:25
  were
• 11:26
  talking
• 11:26
  to
• 11:26
  Miriam
• 11:27
  Laundrie
• 11:28
  Publishing
• 11:29
  and
• 11:29
  they
• 11:29
  recommended
• 11:30
  all
• 11:30
  three
• 11:30
  formats,
• 11:31
  how
• 11:31
  did
• 11:32
  they
• 11:32
  see
• 11:32
  the
• 11:33
  ebook?
• 11:34
  Was
• 11:34
  there
• 11:34
  other
• 11:35
  applications
• 11:35
  they
• 11:36
  had
• 11:36
  said
• 11:36
  to
• 11:36
  you
• 11:37
  were
• 11:37
  possible?
• 11:39
  She
• 11:39
  is.
• 11:39
  I'm
• 11:39
  not
• 11:40
  sure
• 11:40
  about
• 11:40
  that.
• 11:40
  The
• 11:41
  only
• 11:41
  reason
• 11:41
  I
• 11:41
  ask
• 11:41
  is
• 11:42
  we
• 11:42
  talked
• 11:42
  a
• 11:42
  little
• 11:43
  bit
• 11:43
  about
• 11:43
  did
• 11:43
  you
• 11:43
  have
• 11:44
  a
• 11:44
  business
• 11:44
  book
• 11:44
  plan?
• 11:45
  And
• 11:45
  most
• 11:45
  people
• 11:46
  like
• 11:47
  ourselves,
• 11:47
  they
• 11:47
  didn't
• 11:48
  have
• 11:48
  a
• 11:48
  comprehensive
• 11:49
  book
• 11:50
  plan.
• 11:50
  But
• 11:50
  a
• 11:50
  lot
• 11:51
  of
• 11:51
  times,
• 11:51
  if
• 11:51
  you're
• 11:51
  going
• 11:51
  to
• 11:52
  reach
• 11:52
  out
• 11:53
  and
• 11:54
  appear
• 11:54
  on
• 11:54
  podcast
• 11:55
  shows
• 11:56
  or
• 11:56
  do
• 11:57
  a
• 11:57
  radio
• 11:57
  show,
• 11:58
  TV
• 11:58
  or
• 11:58
  whatever,
• 11:59
  it's
• 11:59
  always
• 11:59
  nice
• 12:00
  to
• 12:00
  maybe
• 12:01
  have
• 12:02
  an
• 12:02
  e
• 12:02
  book.
• 12:03
  I
• 12:03
  just
• 12:03
  thought
• 12:04
  about
• 12:04
  that.
• 12:04
  I
• 12:04
  do
• 12:05
  ebook
• 12:05
  promos
• 12:06
  with
• 12:06
  There's
• 12:06
  a
• 12:06
  group
• 12:06
  of
• 12:07
  us,
• 12:07
  and
• 12:08
  it
• 12:08
  really
• 12:08
  brings

• 12:12
  So

  you
• 12:13
  can
• 12:13
  make
• 12:13
  it
• 12:13
  free

  can
• 12:17
  download
• 12:17
  it
• 12:18
  and
• 12:18

• 12:18
  really
• 12:18
  helps
• 12:19
  to
• 12:19
  get
• 12:19
  reviews.
• 12:20
  And
• 12:21
  also
• 12:22
  somebody
• 12:23
  downloads
• 12:23
  it,
• 12:24
  reads

  it's
• 12:29
  great
• 12:30
  for
• 12:30
  that.
• 12:30
  Tell
• 12:31
  us
• 12:31
  a
• 12:31
  little
• 12:31
  bit
• 12:31
  about
• 12:32
  that,
• 12:32
  because
• 12:32
  I've
• 12:33
  heard
• 12:33
  of
• 12:33
  it,
• 12:33
  but
• 12:33
  I've
• 12:33
  never
• 12:34
  talked
• 12:34
  to
• 12:34
  a
• 12:35
  children's
• 12:35
  book
• 12:35
  author
• 12:36
  directly
• 12:36
  about
• 12:37
  that
• 12:37
  relationship.
• 12:38
  So
• 12:38
  expand
• 12:39
  on
• 12:39
  that
• 12:39
  because
• 12:40
  we
• 12:40
  also
• 12:40
  get
• 12:41
  aspiring
• 12:41
  children's
• 12:42
  book
• 12:42
  authors
• 12:43
  listening
• 12:43
  in
• 12:43
  and
• 12:44
  they're
• 12:44
  always
• 12:44
  looking
• 12:44
  for,
• 12:45
  how
• 12:45
  do
• 12:45
  I
• 12:45
  support
• 12:46
  my
• 12:46
  book?
• 12:46
  Can
• 12:46
  you
• 12:47
  explain
• 12:47
  that
• 12:47
  method
• 12:48
  with
• 12:48
  the
• 12:48
  ebook
• 12:49
  and
• 12:49
  other
• 12:49
  authors?
• 12:51
  When
• 12:51
  I
• 12:51
  was
• 12:51
  getting
• 12:52
  my
• 12:52
  launch
• 12:52
  team
• 12:53
  ready,
• 12:53
  I
• 12:54
  just

  went
• 12:55
  online
• 12:56
  on
• 12:56
  Instagram,
• 12:57
  Facebook,
• 12:58
  Instagram

  huge
• 13:06
  group
• 13:06
  of
• 13:07
  authors
• 13:07
  online.
• 13:09
  And
• 13:09
  they.
• 13:09
  We
• 13:10
  support
• 13:10
  each
• 13:10
  other.
• 13:11
  So
• 13:11
  Discover

  you

  it.
• 13:14
  And

  have
• 13:15
  a
• 13:16
  promo
• 13:16
  group
• 13:16
  and

  then
• 13:17
  we
• 13:17
  have
• 13:17
  a
• 13:18
  chat
• 13:19
  group.

  So

  the
• 13:19
  chat
• 13:20
  group,
• 13:20
  you
• 13:20
  can

  talk
• 13:20
  about
• 13:21
  whatever
• 13:21
  you
• 13:21
  want.
• 13:22
  You
• 13:22
  put
• 13:22
  a
• 13:22
  question
• 13:23
  in
• 13:23
  there,
• 13:24
  no
• 13:24
  matter
• 13:24
  what
• 13:24
  it
• 13:25
  is,
• 13:25
  you
• 13:25
  don't
• 13:25
  have
• 13:25
  to
• 13:25
  feel
• 13:26
  dumb.
• 13:27
  Somebody
• 13:28
  either
• 13:28
  has
• 13:29
  been
• 13:29
  there,
• 13:29
  done
• 13:30
  that,
• 13:30
  knows
• 13:30
  the
• 13:31
  answer,
• 13:31
  and
• 13:32
  it
• 13:32
  might
• 13:32
  take
• 13:32
  a
• 13:32
  couple
• 13:32
  of
• 13:33
  days
• 13:33
  to

  a

• 15:33
  My

• 19:47
  very
• 19:47
  beginning
• 19:48
  of
• 19:49
  writing
• 19:50
  to
• 19:51
  editing,
• 19:52
  hiring
• 19:53
  an
• 19:53
  illustrator.
• 19:54
  Illustrator
• 19:55
  Agreement
• 19:56
  takes
• 19:57
  you
• 19:57
  through
• 19:57
  all
• 19:57
  those
• 19:58
  things
• 19:58
  and
• 19:58
  you're
• 19:58
  assigned
• 19:59
  an
• 19:59
  author
• 19:59
  coach.
• 20:01
  I
• 20:01
  had.
• 20:01
  She
• 20:02
  was
• 20:02
  wonderful.
• 20:03
  And
• 20:03
  so
• 20:03
  every
• 20:04
  month
• 20:04
  you
• 20:04
  get
• 20:04
  a

  them
• 20:05
  for
• 20:05
  half
• 20:06
  an
• 20:06
  hour.
• 20:06
  But
• 20:07
  during
• 20:07
  the
• 20:07
  month,
• 20:07
  if
• 20:07
  you
• 20:08
  have
• 20:08
  any
• 20:08
  questions,
• 20:08
  you
• 20:09
  can
• 20:09
  email
• 20:09
  them
• 20:09
  and
• 20:10
  they'll
• 20:10
  answer
• 20:10
  you
• 20:11
  pretty
• 20:11
  quickly
• 20:12
  within
• 20:12
  a
• 20:12
  day
• 20:12
  or
• 20:13
  so.
• 20:13
  And
• 20:14
  so
• 20:14
  just
• 20:14
  to
• 20:14
  keep
• 20:15
  you
• 20:15
  on
• 20:15
  track
• 20:15
  there
• 20:16
  too,
• 20:16
  they.
• 20:17
  They
• 20:17
  have
• 20:17
  a
• 20:18
  plan
• 20:18
  for.
• 20:18
  We're
• 20:19
  going
• 20:19
  to
• 20:19
  publish
• 20:19
  you
• 20:20
  within
• 20:20
  a
• 20:20
  year.
• 20:21
  And
• 20:21
  so
• 20:22
  this
• 20:22
  is
• 20:22
  the
• 20:22
  plan.
• 20:22
  We
• 20:23
  have
• 20:23
  to
• 20:23
  stay
• 20:23
  on
• 20:23
  a
• 20:23
  plan.
• 20:24
  So
• 20:24
  by
• 20:25
  whatever
• 20:25
  date
• 20:26
  this
• 20:26
  is,
• 20:26
  you
• 20:26
  have
• 20:26
  to
• 20:27
  have
• 20:27
  your
• 20:27
  illustrations
• 20:28
  started
• 20:29
  and
• 20:29
  then
• 20:29
  by
• 20:30
  this
• 20:30
  date
• 20:30
  they
• 20:30
  have
• 20:31
  to
• 20:31
  be
• 20:32
  completed.
• 20:33
  And
• 20:33
  then
• 20:33
  we're
• 20:33
  going
• 20:33
  to
• 20:33
  put
• 20:34
  the
• 20:34
  words
• 20:34
  on
• 20:34
  the
• 20:34
  page
• 20:35
  to
• 20:35
  make
• 20:35
  sure
• 20:35
  everything's
• 20:36
  works
• 20:37
  out
• 20:37
  properly.
• 20:38
  And
• 20:38
  you
• 20:39
  have
• 20:39
  to
• 20:39
  hand
• 20:39
  it
• 20:39
  all
• 20:39
  in
• 20:40
  by
• 20:40
  10
• 20:40
  weeks
• 20:41
  before
• 20:41
  your
• 20:42
  launch
• 20:42
  date.
• 20:43
  So
• 20:43
  they
• 20:43
  keep
• 20:44
  you
• 20:44
  on
• 20:44
  task
• 20:45
  for
• 20:45
  that,
• 20:45
  getting
• 20:46
  it
• 20:46
  in
• 20:46
  for
• 20:46
  the
• 20:47
  formatting
• 20:47
  and
• 20:48
  printing
• 20:48
  and
• 20:48
  all
• 20:49
  that
• 20:49
  stuff
• 20:50
  and
• 20:50
  help
• 20:50
  you
• 20:51
  figure
• 20:51
  out
• 20:51
  what
• 20:51
  size
• 20:52
  you
• 20:52
  want.
• 20:52
  I
• 20:53
  didn't
• 20:53
  realize
• 20:53
  how
• 20:54
  much
• 20:54
  went
• 20:54
  into
• 20:54
  this.
• 20:54
  I
• 20:55
  really
• 20:55
  appreciate
• 20:55
  it
• 20:56
  when
• 20:56
  I
• 20:56
  pick
• 20:56
  a
• 20:56
  book
• 20:56
  up
• 20:57
  now,
• 20:57
  like
• 20:58
  just
• 20:58
  reading
• 20:58
  to
• 20:58
  my
• 20:58
  kids
• 20:59
  years
• 20:59
  ago.
• 21:00
  You
• 21:00
  just
• 21:00
  pick
• 21:00
  the
• 21:00
  book
• 21:01
  up
• 21:01
  and
• 21:01
  read
• 21:01
  it.
• 21:01
  You
• 21:01
  don't
• 21:02
  realize
• 21:02
  what
• 21:03
  went
• 21:03
  into
• 21:03
  the
• 21:03
  book.
• 21:04
  Absolutely.
• 21:04
  I
• 21:04
  couldn't
• 21:05
  agree
• 21:05
  with
• 21:05
  you
• 21:05
  more.
• 21:06
  Yeah.
• 21:06
  When
• 21:07
  you
• 21:07
  look
• 21:07
  at
• 21:07
  all
• 21:07
  the
• 21:07
  options,
• 21:08
  the
• 21:08
  print
• 21:09
  options.
• 21:09
  I
• 21:10
  know,
• 21:10
  I
• 21:11
  know.
• 21:11
  First
• 21:12
  you
• 21:12
  gotta
• 21:12
  get
• 21:12
  your
• 21:12
  number
• 21:13
  of
• 21:13
  pages,
• 21:14
  get
• 21:14
  the
• 21:14
  right
• 21:14
  text
• 21:15
  on
• 21:15
  the
• 21:15
  page
• 21:15
  and
• 21:16
  all
• 21:16
  that
• 21:17
  stuff.
• 21:17
  But
• 21:17
  they
• 21:17
  were
• 21:18
  great
• 21:18
  in
• 21:18
  keeping
• 21:19
  you
• 21:19
  on
• 21:19
  task,
• 21:20
  which
• 21:20
  is
• 21:20
  very
• 21:20
  important
• 21:21
  when
• 21:21
  you.
• 21:21
  When
• 21:22
  you're
• 21:22
  a
• 21:22
  course
• 21:22
  like
• 21:22
  that.
• 21:23
  They've
• 21:23
  got
• 21:23
  new
• 21:24
  people
• 21:24
  starting,
• 21:24
  so
• 21:24
  they
• 21:25
  have
• 21:25
  to
• 21:25
  get
• 21:26
  this
• 21:26
  group
• 21:27
  published
• 21:28
  so
• 21:28
  that
• 21:28
  they
• 21:28
  can
• 21:29
  get
• 21:29
  on
• 21:29
  with
• 21:29
  the
• 21:30
  next
• 21:30
  group.
• 21:30
  I.
• 21:31
  I
• 21:31
  went
• 21:31
  on
• 21:31
  your
• 21:31
  website,
• 21:32
  great
• 21:32
  website,
• 21:33
  and
• 21:34
  I
• 21:34
  was
• 21:34
  looking
• 21:34
  at
• 21:35
  it,
• 21:35
  and
• 21:35
  you
• 21:35
  mentioned
• 21:35
  the
• 21:36
  two
• 21:36
  more
• 21:36
  books
• 21:37
  in
• 21:37
  the
• 21:37
  works,
• 21:38
  and
• 21:38
  you
• 21:39
  have
• 21:39
  them
• 21:39
  on
• 21:39
  your
• 21:39
  website.
• 21:40
  Is
• 21:41
  your
• 21:41
  intention
• 21:42
  to
• 21:42
  continue
• 21:42
  to
• 21:43
  use
• 21:43
  this
• 21:44
  hybrid
• 21:44
  Miriam
• 21:45
  Laundry
• 21:46
  publishing
• 21:47
  format?
• 21:49
  Actually,
• 21:49
  no.
• 21:50
  I'm
• 21:50
  doing.
• 21:50
  I'm
• 21:51
  publishing
• 21:51
  my
• 21:51
  second
• 21:52
  book
• 21:52
  with
• 21:52
  Moondust
• 21:53
  Publishing.
• 21:55
  They
• 21:55
  are
• 21:55
  a
• 21:55
  traditional
• 21:56
  publisher.
• 21:57
  I
• 21:57
  decided
• 21:58
  to
• 21:58
  go
• 21:58
  that
• 21:58
  route
• 21:59
  because
• 21:59
  I
• 21:59
  found
• 22:00
  it
• 22:00
  daunting
• 22:01
  to
• 22:01
  do
• 22:01
  all
• 22:02
  the
• 22:02
  marketing
• 22:03
  myself.
• 22:04
  And
• 22:04
  I
• 22:05
  felt
• 22:05
  maybe
• 22:05
  this
• 22:06
  would
• 22:06
  be
• 22:06
  a
• 22:06
  better
• 22:06
  option
• 22:07
  for
• 22:07
  me.
• 22:07
  We'll
• 22:08
  see
• 22:08
  what
• 22:08
  happens.
• 22:09
  It's
• 22:09
  called
• 22:10
  Moondust
• 22:11
  Publishing.
• 22:12
  Yes.
• 22:12
  Okay.
• 22:13
  And
• 22:13
  are
• 22:13
  they
• 22:14
  out
• 22:14
  of
• 22:14
  Canada
• 22:14
  or
• 22:15
  the
• 22:15
  United
• 22:15
  States?
• 22:16
  Out
• 22:16
  of
• 22:16
  the
• 22:16
  States.
• 22:17
  Okay.
• 22:17
  And
• 22:18
  very
• 22:18
  small,
• 22:19
  fairly
• 22:19
  new
• 22:20
  publishing
• 22:21
  company.
• 22:21
  Did
• 22:21
  you
• 22:22
  approach
• 22:22
  them
• 22:22
  or
• 22:22
  did
• 22:22
  they
• 22:23
  approach
• 22:23
  you?
• 22:25
  I
• 22:25
  approached
• 22:25
  them
• 22:26
  because
• 22:26
  one
• 22:26
  of
• 22:27
  the
• 22:27
  authors
• 22:27
  that
• 22:27
  I
• 22:28
  met
• 22:28
  through
• 22:28
  the
• 22:28
  author
• 22:28
  group,
• 22:29
  the
• 22:29
  Discover
• 22:29
  Kids
• 22:30
  books,
• 22:31
  was
• 22:31
  published
• 22:32
  by
• 22:32
  them.
• 22:32
  So
• 22:33
  I
• 22:33
  approached
• 22:33
  her
• 22:33
  and
• 22:34
  then
• 22:35
  she
• 22:35
  had
• 22:36
  great
• 22:36
  things
• 22:36
  to
• 22:36
  say
• 22:37
  about
• 22:37
  them.
• 22:37
  When
• 22:38
  I
• 22:38
  looked
• 22:38
  on
• 22:38
  their
• 22:38
  website,
• 22:39
  they
• 22:39
  were
• 22:39
  open
• 22:40
  for
• 22:40
  submissions.
• 22:42
  And
• 22:42
  so
• 22:42
  I
• 22:42
  thought,
• 22:43
  hey,
• 22:43
  I'll
• 22:44
  just
• 22:44
  put
• 22:44
  my
• 22:44
  second
• 22:44
  book
• 22:45
  and
• 22:45
  my
• 22:45
  manuscript's
• 22:46
  ready.
• 22:47
  I
• 22:47
  couldn't
• 22:47
  believe
• 22:47
  it.
• 22:48
  I
• 22:48
  got
• 22:48
  it.
• 22:48
  A
• 22:48
  note
• 22:49
  back.
• 22:49
  Rehearsing.
• 22:50
  Your
• 22:50
  writing
• 22:50
  is
• 22:51
  stellar.
• 22:52
  And
• 22:52
  I'm
• 22:52
  like,
• 22:53
  what?
• 22:55
  It
• 22:55
  was
• 22:56
  just
• 22:56
  so
• 22:57
  shocking
• 22:57
  and
• 22:59
  just
• 23:00
  exciting
• 23:00
  to
• 23:01
  read
• 23:01
  that.
• 23:01
  And
• 23:02
  so
• 23:02
  when
• 23:02
  you
• 23:03
  say
• 23:03
  traditional,
• 23:04
  explain
• 23:05
  that
• 23:05
  approach,
• 23:06
  because
• 23:07
  generally,
• 23:08
  as
• 23:08
  a
• 23:09
  traditional
• 23:09
  publisher,
• 23:10
  they
• 23:10
  take
• 23:11
  all
• 23:11
  the
• 23:11
  rights
• 23:12
  from
• 23:12
  you.
• 23:12
  My
• 23:13
  story
• 23:13
  will
• 23:13
  be
• 23:13
  theirs.
• 23:14
  But
• 23:15
  we're
• 23:15
  doing
• 23:15
  it
• 23:15
  a
• 23:15
  little
• 23:16
  different.
• 23:16
  Just
• 23:16
  because
• 23:17
  she
• 23:18
  loved
• 23:19
  the
• 23:19
  story.
• 23:19
  I
• 23:19
  said
• 23:20
  to
• 23:20
  her,
• 23:20
  the
• 23:20
  only
• 23:20
  thing
• 23:20
  is,
• 23:21
  I
• 23:21
  want
• 23:22
  to
• 23:22
  decide
• 23:23
  the
• 23:23
  pictures,
• 23:24
  because
• 23:24
  I
• 23:24
  decided
• 23:25
  every
• 23:26
  picture
• 23:26
  in
• 23:26
  my
• 23:26
  other
• 23:27
  book
• 23:27
  and
• 23:27
  where
• 23:27
  everything
• 23:27
  was
• 23:28
  on
• 23:28
  the
• 23:28
  page.
• 23:29
  And
• 23:29
  so
• 23:29
  we
• 23:29
  decided
• 23:30
  we
• 23:30
  had
• 23:30
  a
• 23:31
  little
• 23:31
  bit
• 23:31
  different
• 23:31
  agreement,
• 23:32
  which
• 23:33
  is
• 23:34
  I
• 23:34
  hired
• 23:35
  my
• 23:35
  own
• 23:35
  illustrator.
• 23:36
  And
• 23:36
  once
• 23:37
  the
• 23:37
  pictures
• 23:37
  are
• 23:37
  all
• 23:37
  ready,
• 23:38
  they
• 23:39
  will
• 23:39
  go
• 23:39
  to
• 23:39
  her,
• 23:39
  but
• 23:39
  the
• 23:40
  pictures
• 23:40
  will
• 23:40
  be
• 23:40
  owned
• 23:41
  by
• 23:41
  me.
• 23:41
  So
• 23:41
  it's
• 23:41
  going
• 23:41
  to
• 23:41
  be
• 23:42
  a
• 23:42
  little
• 23:42
  bit
• 23:42
  different.
• 23:43
  In
• 23:43
  the
• 23:43
  end,
• 23:43
  I
• 23:44
  will
• 23:44
  get
• 23:44
  25%
• 23:45
  of
• 23:46
  the
• 23:46
  sales
• 23:47
  of
• 23:47
  the
• 23:47
  book.
• 23:48
  Okay.
• 23:49
  And
• 23:49
  that's
• 23:49
  because
• 23:50
  you're
• 23:50
  supplying
• 23:50
  the
• 23:51
  illustrations
• 23:52
  and
• 23:53
  we
• 23:53
  might
• 23:53
  as
• 23:53
  well
• 23:53
  Just
• 23:54
  jump
• 23:54
  into
• 23:55
  the
• 23:55
  illustration
• 23:56
  part
• 23:56
  for
• 23:56
  a
• 23:56
  moment
• 23:57
  because
• 23:57
  we're
• 23:57
  there
• 23:58
  is.
• 23:58
  Are
• 23:59
  you
• 23:59
  using
• 23:59
  the
• 24:00
  same
• 24:00
  illustrator
• 24:00
  as
• 24:01
  you
• 24:01
  did
• 24:01
  in
• 24:01
  your
• 24:01
  first
• 24:02
  book?
• 24:03
  No,
• 24:03
  I
• 24:03
  am
• 24:04
  not.
• 24:04
  And
• 24:04
  that
• 24:04
  is
• 24:04
  because
• 24:05
  we
• 24:05
  can't
• 24:05
  find
• 24:05
  her
• 24:06
  anywhere.
• 24:07
  She's
• 24:07
  disappeared
• 24:08
  off
• 24:08
  of
• 24:09
  platform
• 24:09
  we
• 24:10
  used
• 24:10
  was
• 24:10
  Fiverr.
• 24:11
  And
• 24:13
  I
• 24:13
  cried
• 24:14
  over
• 24:14
  that.
• 24:14
  Couldn't
• 24:15
  find
• 24:15
  her
• 24:15
  anywhere
• 24:16
  after
• 24:16
  she
• 24:16
  promised
• 24:17
  to
• 24:17
  do
• 24:18
  my
• 24:18
  three
• 24:18
  books,
• 24:19
  at
• 24:19
  least.
• 24:19
  Okay.
• 24:20
  Geez.
• 24:20
  I
• 24:20
  went
• 24:21
  through
• 24:21
  four
• 24:21
  other
• 24:21
  illustrators
• 24:23
  before
• 24:23
  I
• 24:23
  decided
• 24:24
  on
• 24:24
  the
• 24:24
  one
• 24:24
  I'm
• 24:25
  using
• 24:25
  because
• 24:27
  I
• 24:27
  really
• 24:27
  wanted
• 24:28
  some
• 24:28
  continuity
• 24:29
  in
• 24:29
  the
• 24:29
  story,
• 24:30
  the
• 24:31
  sort
• 24:31
  of
• 24:31
  look
• 24:31
  of
• 24:31
  it.
• 24:32
  They
• 24:32
  are
• 24:32
  a
• 24:33
  bit
• 24:33
  more
• 24:33
  vibrant,
• 24:34
  but
• 24:34
  they
• 24:34
  flow
• 24:35
  with,
• 24:36
  I
• 24:36
  think,
• 24:36
  the
• 24:37
  vibrancy.
• 24:37
  I
• 24:38
  discussed
• 24:38
  this
• 24:38
  with
• 24:38
  my
• 24:38
  publisher
• 24:39
  too,
• 24:40
  shows
• 24:40
  a
• 24:40
  positive
• 24:41
  time
• 24:41
  in
• 24:41
  Penny's
• 24:42
  life
• 24:42
  where
• 24:43
  she
• 24:43
  has
• 24:43
  made
• 24:44
  it
• 24:44
  to
• 24:44
  the
• 24:44
  place
• 24:45
  where
• 24:45
  we're
• 24:45
  going
• 24:45
  to
• 24:46
  meet
• 24:46
  her
• 24:46
  at
• 24:46
  the
• 24:47
  transport.
• 24:48
  She's
• 24:48
  been
• 24:48
  adopted
• 24:49
  and
• 24:49
  she's
• 24:49
  going
• 24:49
  to
• 24:49
  be
• 24:50
  coming
• 24:50
  home
• 24:50
  with
• 24:50
  us.
• 24:51
  Very
• 24:51
  good
• 24:52
  point.
• 24:53
  Yeah,
• 24:53
  Yeah.
• 24:54
  A
• 24:54
  nice
• 24:54
  transition,
• 24:55
  like
• 24:56
  a
• 24:56
  noticeable
• 24:57
  one,
• 24:57
  like
• 24:57
  you
• 24:57
  said,
• 24:58
  in
• 24:58
  a
• 24:58
  stage
• 24:59
  in
• 24:59
  Penny's
• 25:00
  life
• 25:00
  where
• 25:02
  she
• 25:02
  is
• 25:03
  taking
• 25:03
  on
• 25:04
  her
• 25:04
  forever
• 25:05
  home.
• 25:06
  Great
• 25:06
  idea.
• 25:07
  So
• 25:07
  this
• 25:07
  will
• 25:07
  be
• 25:08
  fun
• 25:08
  for
• 25:08
  you
• 25:08
  because
• 25:09
  you've
• 25:09
  gone

  definitely

  Now,
• 25:48
  what
• 25:48
  about

  their

• 25:55

• 25:55
  in
• 25:56
  the
• 25:56
  series?
• 25:57
  I'm
• 25:57
  just
• 25:58
  selling
• 25:59
  that
• 25:59
  myself
• 26:00
  and
• 26:00
  we
• 26:00
  haven't
• 26:01
  discussed
• 26:02
  that.
• 26:02
  Really.
• 26:02
  Oh,
• 26:03
  I
• 26:03
  wonder
• 26:03
  what
• 26:03
  will
• 26:04
  happen
• 26:04
  with
• 26:04
  that.
• 26:04
  I
• 26:04
  don't
• 26:05
  know.
• 26:05
  I
• 26:06
  don't
• 26:06
  know.
• 26:06
  We
• 26:06
  haven't
• 26:06
  discussed
• 26:07
  that.
• 26:07
  Okay.
• 26:08
  The
• 26:08
  only
• 26:08
  reason
• 26:09
  I
• 26:09
  bring
• 26:09
  that
• 26:09
  up
• 26:09
  is
• 26:10
  I
• 26:10
  know
• 26:10
  that
• 26:11
  I'm
• 26:11
  sure
• 26:11
  anybody
• 26:12
  who's
• 26:12
  an
• 26:12
  aspiring
• 26:13
  author
• 26:13
  is
• 26:14
  thinking,
• 26:14
  oh,
• 26:15
  this
• 26:15
  is
• 26:15
  a
• 26:15
  different
• 26:16
  approach,
• 26:16
  but
• 26:16
  what
• 26:17
  do
• 26:17
  I
• 26:17
  do
• 26:17
  about
• 26:17
  my
• 26:18
  first
• 26:18
  book?
• 26:19
  Now,
• 26:19
  I
• 26:19
  did
• 26:19
  talk
• 26:20
  to
• 26:20
  a
• 26:20
  author
• 26:21
  in
• 26:22
  Oklahoma,
• 26:23
  and
• 26:23
  he
• 26:24
  did
• 26:24
  his
• 26:24
  first
• 26:24
  book.
• 26:25
  It
• 26:25
  was
• 26:26
  a
• 26:26
  series.
• 26:27
  When
• 26:27
  he
• 26:27
  was
• 26:27
  approached
• 26:28
  by
• 26:28
  a
• 26:28
  traditional
• 26:29
  publisher,
• 26:31
  he
• 26:31
  created
• 26:32
  a
• 26:32
  contract
• 26:33
  with
• 26:33
  them
• 26:34
  to
• 26:34
  take
• 26:35
  on
• 26:35
  the
• 26:35
  first
• 26:36
  book.
• 26:36
  And
• 26:37
  I
• 26:37
  think
• 26:37
  the
• 26:37
  royalties
• 26:38
  are
• 26:38
  a
• 26:38
  little
• 26:38
  richer
• 26:39
  for
• 26:40
  him
• 26:40
  because
• 26:41
  of
• 26:41
  that
• 26:41
  first
• 26:42
  book
• 26:42
  that
• 26:42
  he
• 26:42
  did
• 26:43
  all
• 26:43
  the
• 26:43
  work
• 26:43
  himself
• 26:44
  in
• 26:44
  the
• 26:44
  beginning.
• 26:45
  It
• 26:45
  might
• 26:45
  be
• 26:45
  an
• 26:46
  Episode
• 26:46
  to
• 26:46
  listen
• 26:47
  to.
• 26:47
  I
• 26:47
  did
• 26:48
  it
• 26:48
  recently,
• 26:48
  episode
• 26:49
  53.
• 26:50
  His
• 26:50
  name
• 26:50
  is
• 26:50
  Bart
• 26:51
  Taylor.
• 26:52
  If
• 26:52
  you
• 26:53
  listen
• 26:53
  to
• 26:53
  that
• 26:53
  episode,
• 26:54
  he
• 26:54
  does
• 26:54
  talk
• 26:55
  about
• 26:55
  that
• 26:56
  transition.
• 26:56
  I
• 26:57
  don't
• 26:57
  know
• 26:57
  exactly
• 26:58
  where
• 26:58
  it
• 26:58
  is
• 26:58
  in
• 26:59
  the
• 26:59
  podcast
• 26:59
  interview,
• 27:00
  but
• 27:00
  you
• 27:00
  can
• 27:00
  see
• 27:01
  that
• 27:01
  I've
• 27:01
  said
• 27:02
  that
• 27:02
  by
• 27:02
  chapter,
• 27:03
  so
• 27:03
  you
• 27:03
  might
• 27:03
  be
• 27:03
  able
• 27:04
  to
• 27:04
  scroll
• 27:04
  down
• 27:05
  and
• 27:05
  see
• 27:05
  where
• 27:05
  it
• 27:05
  is
• 27:06
  that
• 27:06
  you
• 27:06
  might
• 27:07
  find
• 27:07
  that
• 27:07
  of
• 27:07
  interest.
• 27:08
  I
• 27:08
  will,
• 27:10
  yeah,
• 27:10
  no
• 27:10
  problem.
• 27:11
  Thank
• 27:11
  you
• 27:11
  for
• 27:11
  sharing
• 27:12
  that.
• 27:12
  Because
• 27:13
  again,
• 27:13
  I'm
• 27:13
  hoping
• 27:14
  that
• 27:14
  for
• 27:14
  the
• 27:14
  guests,
• 27:15
  they
• 27:15
  get
• 27:16
  some
• 27:16
  nuggets
• 27:17
  out
• 27:17
  of
• 27:17
  this.
• 27:17
  And
• 27:17
  this
• 27:17
  is
• 27:18
  definitely
• 27:19
  something.
• 27:19
  I've
• 27:19
  heard
• 27:20
  of
• 27:20
  it
• 27:20
  before,
• 27:20
  but
• 27:22
  not
• 27:22
  thinking
• 27:22
  the
• 27:22
  whole
• 27:23
  process
• 27:23
  through.
• 27:24
  How
• 27:24
  do
• 27:24
  you
• 27:24
  transition
• 27:25
  from
• 27:27
  publishing
• 27:27
  one
• 27:27
  way
• 27:28
  to
• 27:28
  publishing
• 27:28
  now
• 27:29
  more
• 27:29
  of
• 27:29
  a
• 27:30
  traditional
• 27:30
  way.
• 27:31
  So
• 27:31
  good
• 27:31
  for
• 27:32
  you.
• 27:32
  That's
• 27:32
  going
• 27:32
  to
• 27:32
  be
• 27:32
  fun.
• 27:33
  She
• 27:33
  also
• 27:33
  said
• 27:34
  to
• 27:34
  me,
• 27:34
  so
• 27:35
  Once
• 27:35
  we
• 27:35
  hit
• 27:36
  300
• 27:36
  copies,
• 27:37
  we
• 27:37
  wanted
• 27:38
  to
• 27:38
  redo
• 27:38
  the
• 27:39
  COVID
• 27:40
  Okay.
• 27:41
  And
• 27:41
  I
• 27:41
  said,
• 27:42
  okay,
• 27:42
  but
• 27:42
  I
• 27:42
  want
• 27:43
  to
• 27:43
  have
• 27:43
  something
• 27:43
  to
• 27:43
  do
• 27:44
  with
• 27:44
  the
• 27:44
  artwork.
• 27:46
  She
• 27:46
  agrees.
• 27:47
  Okay.
• 27:48
  The
• 27:48
  COVID
• 27:48
  You're
• 27:48
  talking
• 27:48
  about
• 27:49
  your
• 27:49
  second
• 27:49
  book.
• 27:50
  Second
• 27:50
  book,
• 27:51
  yeah.
• 27:51
  We
• 27:51
  don't
• 27:51
  even
• 27:52
  have
• 27:52
  the
• 27:52
  COVID
• 27:52
  yet
• 27:52
  because
• 27:53
  we're
• 27:53
  two
• 27:54
  thirds
• 27:54
  of
• 27:54
  the
• 27:54
  way
• 27:54
  through
• 27:55
  the
• 27:55
  illustrations.
• 27:56
  Okay,
• 27:56
  terrific.
• 27:57
  Good
• 27:57
  for
• 27:57
  you.
• 27:58
  Good
• 27:58
  for
• 27:58
  you.
• 27:58
  Yeah.
• 27:59
  I
• 28:00
  noticed
• 28:00
  also
• 28:01
  one
• 28:02
  unique
• 28:02
  feature
• 28:02
  in
• 28:03
  your
• 28:03
  book,
• 28:04
  it's
• 28:04
  the
• 28:05
  recognition
• 28:05
  of
• 28:06
  the
• 28:06
  Niagara
• 28:07
  Dog
• 28:07
  Rescue.
• 28:08
  So
• 28:09
  tell
• 28:09
  us
• 28:09
  about
• 28:09
  that
• 28:10
  relationship.
• 28:11
  How
• 28:11
  did
• 28:12
  that
• 28:12
  come
• 28:12
  about
• 28:13
  and
• 28:13
  why
• 28:14
  are
• 28:14
  you
• 28:14
  introducing
• 28:15
  it
• 28:15
  to
• 28:15
  your
• 28:15
  readers?
• 28:17
  I
• 28:18
  wanted
• 28:18
  it
• 28:19
  to
• 28:19
  my
• 28:19
  book
• 28:19
  to
• 28:21
  be
• 28:22
  true.
• 28:24
  There's
• 28:24
  a
• 28:24
  lot
• 28:24
  of
• 28:25
  facts
• 28:25
  about
• 28:25
  Penny's
• 28:26
  life
• 28:26
  in
• 28:26
  the
• 28:26
  story,
• 28:27
  so
• 28:28
  there's
• 28:28
  fiction.
• 28:28
  Obviously,
• 28:29
  the
• 28:29
  animals
• 28:29
  don't
• 28:29
  have
• 28:30
  names
• 28:30
  and
• 28:30
  all
• 28:30
  those
• 28:30
  things.
• 28:31
  Right.
• 28:31
  But
• 28:32
  I
• 28:32
  put
• 28:32
  fact
• 28:32
  with
• 28:33
  fiction.
• 28:34
  So
• 28:34
  Niagara
• 28:34
  Dog
• 28:35
  Rescue.
• 28:35
  Once
• 28:36
  we
• 28:36
  decided
• 28:36
  we
• 28:37
  were
• 28:37
  going
• 28:37
  to
• 28:38
  adopt,
• 28:38
  I
• 28:39
  looked
• 28:39
  at
• 28:39
  a
• 28:39
  number
• 28:39
  of
• 28:40
  sites.
• 28:41
  It
• 28:41
  was
• 28:41
  Covid.
• 28:42
  So
• 28:42
  nobody
• 28:42
  was
• 28:43
  going
• 28:43
  anywhere.
• 28:44
  Nobody
• 28:44
  was
• 28:45
  letting
• 28:45
  you
• 28:45
  come
• 28:46
  and
• 28:46
  look
• 28:46
  at
• 28:46
  dogs.
• 28:47
  You
• 28:47
  had
• 28:47
  to
• 28:48
  do
• 28:48
  everything
• 28:48
  online.
• 28:49
  So
• 28:49
  I
• 28:49
  ended
• 28:50
  up
• 28:50
  on
• 28:50
  Niagara
• 28:51
  Dog
• 28:51
  Rescue.
• 28:52
  Niagara
• 28:53
  is
• 28:53
  because
• 28:53
  I
• 28:54
  grew
• 28:54
  up
• 28:54
  over
• 28:55
  there.
• 28:55
  My
• 28:55
  father
• 28:56
  was
• 28:56
  from
• 28:56
  a
• 28:57
  small
• 28:57
  town
• 28:57
  between
• 28:58
  Niagara
• 28:58
  on
• 28:58
  the
• 28:58
  lake
• 28:59
  and
• 28:59
  Niagara
• 28:59
  Falls.
• 29:00
  It's
• 29:00
  called
• 29:00
  Queenston,
• 29:01
  Ontario.
• 29:02
  Okay.
• 29:02
  And
• 29:03
  so
• 29:04
  I
• 29:04
  guess
• 29:05
  I
• 29:05
  was
• 29:05
  drawn
• 29:05
  to
• 29:05
  the
• 29:06
  name
• 29:06
  because
• 29:06
  of
• 29:06
  that
• 29:07
  Niagara.
• 29:07
  I
• 29:08
  ended
• 29:08
  up
• 29:08
  on
• 29:08
  there
• 29:09
  and
• 29:09
  just
• 29:10
  fell
• 29:10
  in
• 29:10
  love
• 29:10
  with
• 29:10
  Penny's
• 29:11
  bio.
• 29:12
  We
• 29:12
  applied
• 29:12
  to
• 29:13
  adopt
• 29:13
  her
• 29:13
  and
• 29:13
  got
• 29:14
  accepted.
• 29:14
  That's
• 29:15
  how
• 29:15
  we
• 29:15
  ended
• 29:16
  up
• 29:16
  with
• 29:16
  them.
• 29:17
  I
• 29:17
  wanted
• 29:18
  their
• 29:18
  name
• 29:18
  in
• 29:18
  it.
• 29:18
  I
• 29:19
  actually
• 29:19
  got
• 29:19
  the.
• 29:20
  The
• 29:21
  organizer
• 29:21
  of
• 29:21
  Niagara
• 29:22
  Dog
• 29:22
  Rescue
• 29:23
  to.
• 29:25
  She's
• 29:25
  got
• 29:25
  her
• 29:26
  recommendation
• 29:27
  on
• 29:27
  the
• 29:27
  back
• 29:27
  of
• 29:27
  the
• 29:28
  book,
• 29:29
  and
• 29:30
  it's
• 29:30
  been
• 29:30
  a
• 29:30
  bit
• 29:30
  of
• 29:31
  a
• 29:32
  strange
• 29:33
  relationship
• 29:34
  with
• 29:34
  them.
• 29:35
  Originally,
• 29:36
  when
• 29:36
  I
• 29:36
  launched
• 29:37
  my
• 29:37
  book,
• 29:37
  I
• 29:38
  approached
• 29:38
  them
• 29:38
  and
• 29:38
  asked
• 29:39
  if
• 29:39
  we
• 29:39
  could.
• 29:40
  I
• 29:40
  could
• 29:41
  launch
• 29:41
  on
• 29:41
  their
• 29:41
  Facebook
• 29:42
  site,
• 29:43
  there's
• 29:43
  A
• 29:43
  Facebook
• 29:44
  page.
• 29:44
  You're
• 29:45
  invited
• 29:45
  to
• 29:45
  anybody
• 29:46
  that
• 29:46
  rescues
• 29:47
  a
• 29:47
  dog
• 29:47
  from
• 29:47
  them.
• 29:48
  There's
• 29:48
  a
• 29:48
  Facebook
• 29:48
  group
• 29:49
  that
• 29:49
  you
• 29:49
  get
• 29:49
  to
• 29:49
  join,
• 29:50
  and
• 29:51
  everybody
• 29:51
  shows
• 29:51
  off
• 29:51
  their
• 29:52
  dogs
• 29:52
  and
• 29:52
  asks
• 29:53
  problems
• 29:53
  and
• 29:53
  issues
• 29:54
  and
• 29:54
  whatever.
• 29:55
  In
• 29:55
  my
• 29:55
  mind,
• 29:56
  I
• 29:56
  thought,
• 29:56
  wouldn't
• 29:56
  it
• 29:56
  be
• 29:57
  great
• 29:57
  to,
• 29:57
  since
• 29:57
  she's
• 29:58
  a
• 29:58
  Niagara
• 29:59
  dog,
• 29:59
  rescue
• 29:59
  dog,
• 30:01
  have
• 30:01
  my
• 30:02
  book
• 30:02
  on
• 30:02
  there,
• 30:03
  but
• 30:03
  support
• 30:04
  them?
• 30:04
  So
• 30:04
  each
• 30:05
  sale
• 30:05
  would
• 30:06
  support
• 30:06
  them,
• 30:06
  and
• 30:06
  I
• 30:07
  would
• 30:07
  give
• 30:07
  them
• 30:07
  a
• 30:07
  portion
• 30:07
  of
• 30:08
  my
• 30:08
  sales.
• 30:09
  We
• 30:09
  went
• 30:09
  back
• 30:10
  and
• 30:10
  forth
• 30:10
  for
• 30:10
  months
• 30:11
  on
• 30:11
  this,
• 30:11
  and
• 30:11
  I
• 30:12
  couldn't
• 30:12
  get
• 30:12
  an
• 30:12
  answer.
• 30:13
  It
• 30:13
  turned
• 30:14
  out
• 30:14
  that
• 30:14
  they
• 30:14
  really
• 30:15
  weren't
• 30:15
  interested
• 30:15
  in
• 30:16
  doing
• 30:16
  that.
• 30:16
  I
• 30:16
  was
• 30:16
  surprised
• 30:18
  and
• 30:18
  a
• 30:18
  little
• 30:18
  hurt
• 30:19
  that
• 30:19
  they
• 30:19
  wouldn't
• 30:19
  be
• 30:20
  interested
• 30:20
  in
• 30:22
  letting
• 30:22
  me
• 30:23
  do
• 30:23
  something
• 30:23
  like
• 30:23
  that.
• 30:23
  They
• 30:24
  said
• 30:24
  that
• 30:24
  it
• 30:24
  would
• 30:24
  be.
• 30:25
  If
• 30:25
  they
• 30:26
  did
• 30:26
  it
• 30:26
  for
• 30:26
  me,
• 30:26
  they'd
• 30:26
  have
• 30:27
  to
• 30:27
  do
• 30:27
  it
• 30:27
  for
• 30:27
  everybody.
• 30:28
  I
• 30:29
  guess
• 30:29
  they're
• 30:29
  a
• 30:29
  big
• 30:29
  corporation
• 30:30
  and
• 30:30
  they
• 30:30
  don't
• 30:31
  need
• 30:31
  the.
• 30:32
  I
• 30:32
  thought
• 30:32
  they
• 30:32
  would
• 30:32
  want
• 30:33
  the
• 30:33
  money
• 30:33
  from
• 30:33
  the
• 30:34
  sales.
• 30:34
  Yeah.
• 30:34
  Because
• 30:35
  generally,
• 30:35
  most
• 30:36
  of
• 30:36
  these
• 30:36
  places
• 30:37
  are
• 30:37
  always
• 30:37
  doing
• 30:38
  big
• 30:39
  fundraising
• 30:39
  to
• 30:40
  keep
• 30:40
  the
• 30:41
  doors
• 30:41
  open.
• 30:42
  Yeah.
• 30:42
  So
• 30:42
  I
• 30:43
  don't.
• 30:43
  Yeah.
• 30:43
  I
• 30:43
  don't
• 30:44
  understand.
• 30:45
  I
• 30:46
  finally
• 30:46
  dropped
• 30:46
  it.
• 30:47
  I
• 30:47
  did
• 30:47
  say
• 30:47
  to
• 30:47
  them,
• 30:47
  kim,
• 30:48
  is
• 30:48
  there
• 30:48
  something
• 30:48
  we
• 30:49
  could
• 30:49
  work
• 30:49
  out?
• 30:49
  If
• 30:50
  you
• 30:50
  don't
• 30:50
  want
• 30:50
  to
• 30:50
  do,
• 30:50
  that's
• 30:51
  fine.
• 30:51
  But
• 30:52
  Penny's
• 30:52
  a
• 30:52
  Niagara
• 30:53
  dog
• 30:53
  rescue
• 30:54
  dog.
• 30:55
  You're
• 30:55
  on
• 30:55
  the
• 30:55
  back
• 30:56
  of
• 30:56
  the
• 30:56
  book.
• 30:57
  Can
• 30:57
  we
• 30:58
  do
• 30:58
  something?
• 30:58
  She
• 30:59
  told
• 30:59
  me
• 30:59
  this
• 30:59
  girl
• 31:00
  who
• 31:00
  was
• 31:00
  in
• 31:00
  charge
• 31:00
  of
• 31:01
  their
• 31:02
  promos
• 31:03
  and
• 31:03
  things
• 31:04
  said
• 31:04
  to
• 31:04
  me,
• 31:04
  if
• 31:04
  I
• 31:04
  can
• 31:05
  find
• 31:05
  a
• 31:05
  location
• 31:06
  to
• 31:06
  do
• 31:06
  a
• 31:07
  book
• 31:08
  signing,
• 31:08
  slash
• 31:09
  dog
• 31:10
  adoption,
• 31:10
  like
• 31:11
  puppies,
• 31:11
  then
• 31:12
  she
• 31:12
  would
• 31:12
  do
• 31:12
  it.
• 31:14
  I
• 31:14
  found
• 31:14
  one
• 31:15
  at
• 31:16
  a
• 31:16
  library
• 31:16
  near
• 31:16
  me
• 31:17
  in
• 31:17
  Trenton,
• 31:18
  and
• 31:18
  she
• 31:19
  ended
• 31:19
  up
• 31:19
  telling
• 31:20
  me
• 31:20
  it
• 31:20
  was
• 31:20
  too
• 31:20
  far
• 31:20
  to
• 31:21
  bring
• 31:21
  the
• 31:21
  dogs.
• 31:21
  I
• 31:22
  finally
• 31:22
  decided
• 31:22
  to
• 31:23
  give
• 31:23
  up
• 31:23
  on
• 31:23
  it.
• 31:23
  She
• 31:24
  told
• 31:24
  me
• 31:24
  that
• 31:24
  they
• 31:24
  would.
• 31:25
  They
• 31:25
  would
• 31:26
  prefer
• 31:26
  to
• 31:26
  do
• 31:27
  something
• 31:27
  near
• 31:27
  Niagara.
• 31:28
  And
• 31:28
  I
• 31:28
  said,
• 31:28
  that'd
• 31:28
  be
• 31:28
  great.
• 31:29
  I
• 31:29
  said,
• 31:29
  how
• 31:29
  would
• 31:29
  we
• 31:30
  do
• 31:30
  that?
• 31:30
  And
• 31:31
  she
• 31:31
  said,
• 31:31
  I'll
• 31:32
  let
• 31:32
  you
• 31:32
  know
• 31:32
  when
• 31:32
  we
• 31:33
  find
• 31:33
  the
• 31:33
  event.
• 31:33
  All
• 31:34
  you
• 31:34
  have
• 31:34
  to
• 31:34
  do
• 31:34
  is
• 31:34
  show
• 31:34
  up.
• 31:35
  But
• 31:35
  I've
• 31:35
  never
• 31:36
  heard
• 31:36
  from
• 31:36
  them.
• 31:37
  So
• 31:37
  what
• 31:37
  I
• 31:37
  did
• 31:37
  was
• 31:38
  I
• 31:38
  thought,
• 31:38
  okay,
• 31:39
  let's
• 31:39
  just
• 31:39
  forget
• 31:40
  that.
• 31:41
  We'll
• 31:41
  move
• 31:41
  on.
• 31:42
  And
• 31:43
  so
• 31:43
  I've
• 31:43
  supported
• 31:44
  our.
• 31:44
  The
• 31:45
  Hastings,
• 31:45
  Prince
• 31:45
  Edward
• 31:46
  county,
• 31:46
  which
• 31:46
  is
• 31:46
  where
• 31:47
  I
• 31:47
  live,
• 31:47
  the
• 31:48
  area
• 31:49
  Humane
• 31:49
  Society.
• 31:50
  I
• 31:50
  did
• 31:51
  an
• 31:51
  event.
• 31:51
  Yeah,
• 31:52
  I
• 31:52
  did
• 31:52
  an
• 31:52
  event
• 31:53
  in
• 31:53
  the
• 31:53
  summer
• 31:53
  called
• 31:54
  Wiggle
• 31:54
  Waggle
• 31:54
  Walkathon.
• 31:56
  And
• 31:56
  it
• 31:56
  was
• 31:56
  down
• 31:56
  by
• 31:56
  the.
• 31:57
  Yeah,
• 31:57
  it
• 31:57
  was
• 31:57
  in
• 31:58
  Trenton.
• 31:58
  Here,
• 31:59
  down
• 31:59
  by
• 31:59
  the
• 31:59
  water.
• 31:59
  Very
• 32:00
  successful.
• 32:00
  They
• 32:01
  raised
• 32:02
  $38,000,
• 32:03
  which
• 32:04
  goes
• 32:04
  to
• 32:04
  look
• 32:05
  after
• 32:05
  dogs
• 32:06
  that
• 32:06
  they're
• 32:06
  waiting
• 32:07
  to
• 32:07
  be
• 32:07
  adopted.
• 32:08
  So
• 32:08
  I
• 32:08
  did
• 32:08
  that,
• 32:09
  and
• 32:09
  I've
• 32:09
  done
• 32:10
  a
• 32:10
  couple
• 32:10
  of
• 32:10
  my
• 32:10
  shows
• 32:11
  where
• 32:11
  I
• 32:11
  collect
• 32:12
  donations
• 32:13
  towards
• 32:13
  it.
• 32:14
  Or
• 32:14
  give
• 32:14
  a
• 32:14
  portion
• 32:15
  of
• 32:15
  my
• 32:15
  sales
• 32:16
  as
• 32:16
  well.
• 32:17
  I
• 32:17
  got
• 32:18
  in
• 32:18
  touch
• 32:18
  with
• 32:18
  the
• 32:18
  SPCA
• 32:19
  out
• 32:19
  this
• 32:20
  way.
• 32:20
  It's
• 32:20
  called
• 32:20
  the
• 32:21
  Lennox
• 32:21
  Addington
• 32:23
  spca.
• 32:24
  And
• 32:24
  so
• 32:24
  I've
• 32:25
  done
• 32:25
  a
• 32:25
  book
• 32:25
  signing
• 32:27
  dog
• 32:27
  adoption
• 32:28
  with
• 32:28
  them
• 32:28
  in
• 32:29
  one
• 32:29
  of
• 32:29
  the
• 32:30
  little
• 32:30
  pet
• 32:31
  stores,
• 32:31
  which
• 32:31
  is
• 32:31
  called
• 32:31
  Paul
• 32:32
  Max.
• 32:33
  And
• 32:34
  we're
• 32:34
  going
• 32:34
  to
• 32:34
  just
• 32:34
  do
• 32:35
  different
• 32:36
  things
• 32:36
  like
• 32:36
  that.
• 32:37
  What
• 32:37
  sales
• 32:37
  I
• 32:38
  make,
• 32:38
  I
• 32:38
  don't
• 32:39
  pay
• 32:39
  to
• 32:39
  have
• 32:39
  a
• 32:39
  table
• 32:39
  there.
• 32:41
  I
• 32:41
  give
• 32:41
  them
• 32:41
  a
• 32:41
  portion
• 32:41
  of
• 32:42
  my
• 32:42
  sales
• 32:43
  and
• 32:43
  donate
• 32:43
  it.
• 32:44
  That's
• 32:45
  what
• 32:45
  I've
• 32:45
  decided
• 32:45
  to
• 32:46
  do
• 32:46
  instead.
• 32:46
  And
• 32:47
  you
• 32:47
  know
• 32:47
  what,
• 32:47
  Judy,
• 32:47
  hat's
• 32:48
  off
• 32:48
  to
• 32:48
  you
• 32:48
  because
• 32:49
  you
• 32:49
  could
• 32:50
  have
• 32:50
  got
• 32:50
  totally
• 32:51
  frustrated
• 32:52
  and
• 32:52
  said,
• 32:52
  forget
• 32:53

• 32:53
  altogether.
• 32:54
  At

  other
• 32:58

• 32:58
  rescues
• 33:00
  and
• 33:00
  that's
• 33:00
  what
• 33:00
  you've
• 33:00
  done.
• 33:01
  If
• 33:01
  your
• 33:01
  book
• 33:02
  had
• 33:02
  the
• 33:03
  twists
• 33:03
  and
• 33:03
  turns
• 33:04
  a
• 33:04
  bit,
• 33:04
  I
• 33:05
  think
• 33:05
  the
• 33:05
  lesson
• 33:05
  is.
• 33:06
  And
• 33:06
  thank

  is,
• 33:08
  folks,
• 33:08
  stay
• 33:09

• 33:09

• 33:09
  If
• 33:09
  you're
• 33:10
  a
• 33:10
  whole
• 33:11
  hard
• 33:11
  is
• 33:11
  about

• 33:15
  like
• 33:15
  Judy
• 33:16
  has
• 33:16
  done,
• 33:16
  then
• 33:18
  I
• 33:18
  can't
• 33:18
  think
• 33:18
  of
• 33:18
  a
• 33:19
  greater
• 33:20
  thing
• 33:20
  to
• 33:20
  do.
• 33:21
  Thank
• 33:21
  you.
• 33:22
  Thank
• 33:22
  you
• 33:22
  for
• 33:22
  sharing
• 33:23
  that.
• 33:24
  I
• 33:24
  also
• 33:25
  wrote
• 33:25
  stories
• 33:25
  written
• 33:26
  from
• 33:26
  Penny's
• 33:27
  point
• 33:27
  of
• 33:27
  view
• 33:28
  to
• 33:28
  give
• 33:28
  a
• 33:28
  voice
• 33:29
  to
• 33:29
  these
• 33:29
  dogs.
• 33:30
  It's
• 33:30
  just
• 33:30
  a
• 33:30
  little
• 33:30
  different
• 33:31
  than
• 33:31
  other
• 33:31
  stories
• 33:32
  that
• 33:32
  are
• 33:32
  out
• 33:32
  there.
• 33:33
  And
• 33:33
  that's
• 33:33
  why
• 33:33
  I
• 33:34
  did
• 33:34
  it.
• 33:34
  I
• 33:34
  just
• 33:34
  thought
• 33:37
  Penny's
• 33:37
  really
• 33:37
  telling
• 33:38
  the
• 33:38
  story.
• 33:38
  How
• 33:39
  I
• 33:39
  envision
• 33:39
  what
• 33:39
  would
• 33:40
  happen
• 33:40
  to
• 33:40
  her
• 33:40
  if
• 33:41
  I
• 33:41
  was
• 33:41
  taken
• 33:41
  from
• 33:42
  freedom
• 33:42
  and
• 33:42
  put
• 33:42
  in
• 33:43
  a
• 33:43
  cage
• 33:43
  and
• 33:43
  given
• 33:44
  different
• 33:44
  food
• 33:44
  and
• 33:45
  people
• 33:45
  and
• 33:45
  all
• 33:45
  those
• 33:46
  things.
• 33:46
  We
• 33:46
  wouldn't
• 33:46
  like
• 33:46
  it
• 33:47
  too
• 33:47
  much.
• 33:47
  No,
• 33:48
  that's
• 33:48
  for
• 33:48
  sure.
• 33:49
  And.
• 33:49
  And
• 33:50
  it's
• 33:50
  great.
• 33:50
  We
• 33:51
  were
• 33:51
  talking
• 33:51
  about
• 33:51
  Aaron
• 33:52
  Murphy
• 33:52
  earlier
• 33:53
  yourself.
• 33:54
  If
• 33:54
  it
• 33:54
  wasn't
• 33:55
  for
• 33:55
  folks
• 33:55
  like
• 33:55
  you

  with

  a

• 33:57
  Wow.

  So

• 34:43
  and
• 34:43
  he's
• 34:43
  still
• 34:44
  working
• 34:44
  at
• 34:44
  home.
• 34:44
  But
• 34:45
  anyways,
• 34:45
  he's
• 34:46
  a
• 34:46
  computer
• 34:46
  programmer.
• 34:47
  So
• 34:47
  I
• 34:48
  said
• 34:48
  to
• 34:48
  him,
• 34:49
  geez,
• 34:49
  we
• 34:49
  could
• 34:49
  pay
• 34:50
  somebody
• 34:50
  to
• 34:50
  do
• 34:50
  a
• 34:51
  website.
• 34:51
  I
• 34:51
  really
• 34:51
  need
• 34:52
  one
• 34:52
  because
• 34:53
  I
• 34:53
  want
• 34:53
  to
• 34:53
  have
• 34:54
  a
• 34:54
  place
• 34:55
  to
• 34:55
  tell
• 34:55
  about
• 34:55
  myself,
• 34:57
  do
• 34:57
  a
• 34:57
  couple
• 34:57
  of
• 34:58
  Blogs
• 34:58
  and
• 34:58
  tell
• 34:59
  more
• 34:59
  about
• 34:59
  Penny
• 35:00
  and
• 35:00
  the
• 35:00
  process
• 35:00
  behind
• 35:01
  the
• 35:01
  book
• 35:01
  and
• 35:01
  how
• 35:01
  it
• 35:01
  developed.
• 35:02
  And
• 35:03
  so
• 35:03
  he
• 35:03
  ended
• 35:03
  up
• 35:04
  doing
• 35:04
  the
• 35:04
  website.
• 35:05
  We
• 35:05
  used
• 35:06
  wix,
• 35:06
  but
• 35:06
  he
• 35:07
  did
• 35:07
  the
• 35:07
  whole
• 35:07
  website
• 35:08
  for
• 35:08
  me.
• 35:09
  Thank
• 35:09
  you.
• 35:09
  I
• 35:10
  wanted
• 35:10
  a
• 35:10
  place
• 35:11
  to.
• 35:11
  We
• 35:12
  had
• 35:12
  a
• 35:12
  little
• 35:12
  video
• 35:13
  made
• 35:13
  before
• 35:13
  the
• 35:14
  book
• 35:14
  launched.
• 35:14
  I
• 35:14
  wanted
• 35:15
  people
• 35:15
  to
• 35:15
  see
• 35:15
  that
• 35:16
  and
• 35:17
  see
• 35:17
  when
• 35:17
  my
• 35:17
  next
• 35:17
  books
• 35:18
  were
• 35:18
  coming
• 35:18
  up
• 35:18
  and
• 35:19
  what's
• 35:20
  happening
• 35:20
  with
• 35:21
  those
• 35:22
  great
• 35:22
  blogs
• 35:23
  on
• 35:23
  there.
• 35:23
  So
• 35:24
  I
• 35:24
  have
• 35:24
  a
• 35:24
  blog
• 35:24
  in
• 35:24
  there
• 35:24
  about
• 35:25
  my
• 35:25
  grandson.
• 35:26
  Asher
• 35:27
  is
• 35:28
  disabled,
• 35:28
  he
• 35:29
  has
• 35:29
  autism.
• 35:30
  And
• 35:31
  Penny
• 35:32
  became
• 35:32
  somewhat
• 35:33
  of
• 35:33
  an
• 35:34
  emotional
• 35:34
  support
• 35:35
  dog
• 35:35
  towards
• 35:36
  him
• 35:36
  and
• 35:37
  still
• 35:37
  is.
• 35:38
  So
• 35:38
  he
• 35:38
  has
• 35:39
  high
• 35:39
  anxiety
• 35:40
  ash.
• 35:41
  And
• 35:41
  he'll
• 35:42
  come
• 35:42
  and
• 35:42
  lie
• 35:42
  with
• 35:42
  Penny.
• 35:43
  Penny
• 35:44
  just
• 35:44
  loves
• 35:44
  it.
• 35:44
  She's
• 35:45
  a
• 35:45
  bigger
• 35:45
  dog.
• 35:45
  She's
• 35:46
  black
• 35:46
  lab
• 35:46
  pit
• 35:47
  bull.
• 35:47
  So
• 35:47
  she's
• 35:47
  got
• 35:48
  muscle.
• 35:49
  And
• 35:49
  he'll
• 35:49
  just
• 35:49
  lie
• 35:50
  with
• 35:50
  her,
• 35:50
  lie
• 35:51
  on
• 35:51
  her,
• 35:51
  lie
• 35:51
  against
• 35:52
  her,
• 35:52
  and
• 35:52
  she
• 35:53
  just
• 35:53
  absorbs
• 35:54
  whatever
• 35:55
  anxiety
• 35:56
  the
• 35:56
  kid
• 35:56
  has.
• 35:56
  So
• 35:57
  it
• 35:57
  was
• 35:57
  actually
• 35:57
  Niagara
• 35:58
  Dog
• 35:58
  Rescue
• 35:59
  that
• 35:59
  asked
• 35:59
  me
• 36:00
  when
• 36:00
  I
• 36:01
  told
• 36:01
  one
• 36:01
  of
• 36:01
  the
• 36:01
  girls
• 36:02
  that
• 36:02
  works
• 36:02
  there
• 36:02
  about
• 36:03
  this
• 36:04
  relationship,
• 36:05
  she
• 36:05
  said,
• 36:06
  would
• 36:06
  you
• 36:06
  write
• 36:06
  a
• 36:06
  blog
• 36:07
  for
• 36:07
  Niagara
• 36:08
  Dog
• 36:08
  Rescue?
• 36:09
  So
• 36:10
  I
• 36:10
  did,
• 36:10
  and
• 36:10
  it's
• 36:10
  on
• 36:10
  their
• 36:11
  website.
• 36:11
  So
• 36:12
  I
• 36:12
  decided
• 36:12
  to
• 36:12
  share
• 36:12
  it
• 36:13
  online.
• 36:13
  Cause
• 36:13
  it's
• 36:14
  a
• 36:14
  special
• 36:14
  story
• 36:14
  and
• 36:15
  there's
• 36:15
  a
• 36:15
  couple
• 36:15
  of
• 36:15
  pictures
• 36:16
  there
• 36:16
  that
• 36:17
  are
• 36:17
  fun
• 36:17
  too.
• 36:17
  Terrific.
• 36:18
  Terrific.
• 36:19
  And
• 36:19
  just
• 36:19
  so
• 36:19
  everyone
• 36:20
  knows,
• 36:20
  we
• 36:20
  will
• 36:20
  definitely
• 36:21
  link
• 36:21
  to
• 36:22
  Judy's
• 36:23
  website
• 36:23
  and
• 36:23
  you
• 36:23
  can
• 36:24
  read
• 36:24
  all
• 36:25
  about
• 36:25
  Judy's
• 36:26
  grandson
• 36:26
  and
• 36:27
  his
• 36:27
  relationship
• 36:28
  with
• 36:28
  Penny.
• 36:29
  That's
• 36:29
  beautiful.
• 36:30
  Your
• 36:30
  social
• 36:31
  media.
• 36:32
  And
• 36:32
  it's
• 36:33
  interesting
• 36:33
  because
• 36:33
  I
• 36:33
  looked
• 36:34
  at
• 36:34
  your
• 36:34
  followers
• 36:35
  on
• 36:35
  Facebook
• 36:36
  and
• 36:36
  then
• 36:36
  I
• 36:36
  looked
• 36:37
  at
• 36:37
  your
• 36:38
  Instagram
• 36:38
  followers,
• 36:39
  and
• 36:39
  I
• 36:39
  noticed
• 36:40
  your
• 36:40
  Instagram
• 36:40
  followers
• 36:41
  are
• 36:41
  about
• 36:41
  10
• 36:42
  times
• 36:42
  as
• 36:42
  large
• 36:43
  as
• 36:43
  your
• 36:43
  Facebook
• 36:44
  followers.
• 36:45
  And
• 36:45
  I
• 36:45
  think
• 36:46
  that
• 36:46
  probably
• 36:47
  has
• 36:47
  something
• 36:47
  to
• 36:47
  do
• 36:48
  with
• 36:48
  the
• 36:48
  story
• 36:48
  that
• 36:49
  you
• 36:49
  told
• 36:49
  us
• 36:49
  in
• 36:49
  the
• 36:50
  beginning.
• 36:51
  Is
• 36:51
  that
• 36:51
  true?
• 36:52
  Discover
• 36:53
  Kids
• 36:53
  being
• 36:54
  on
• 36:54
  Instagram?
• 36:55
  Yes,
• 36:55
  it
• 36:55
  is.
• 36:55
  Tell
• 36:56
  us
• 36:56
  a
• 36:56
  little
• 36:56
  bit
• 36:56
  about
• 36:57
  that.
• 36:57
  Because
• 36:58
  you
• 36:58
  talked
• 36:58
  about
• 36:58
  the
• 36:59
  email
• 36:59
  list
• 36:59
  and
• 36:59
  we'll
• 37:00
  jump
• 37:00
  into
• 37:00
  that
• 37:00
  right
• 37:01
  after
• 37:01
  this
• 37:01
  question.
• 37:02
  But
• 37:02
  tell
• 37:02
  us
• 37:03
  about
• 37:03
  how
• 37:04
  this
• 37:05
  whole
• 37:05
  relationship.
• 37:06
  What
• 37:06
  kind
• 37:06
  of
• 37:07
  numbers
• 37:07
  did
• 37:07
  you
• 37:07
  have
• 37:08
  with
• 37:08
  Instagram
• 37:09
  before
• 37:09
  you
• 37:09
  started
• 37:10
  with
• 37:10
  Discover
• 37:11
  Kids?
• 37:11
  And
• 37:11
  then
• 37:12
  all
• 37:12
  of
• 37:12
  a
• 37:12
  sudden,
• 37:13
  how
• 37:13
  did
• 37:13
  you.
• 37:14
  Oh,
• 37:14
  I
• 37:14
  probably
• 37:14
  had
• 37:14
  it
• 37:15
  in
• 37:15
  the
• 37:15
  low
• 37:16
  hundreds.
• 37:17
  Okay.
• 37:17
  But
• 37:18
  I
• 37:18
  tend
• 37:18
  to.
• 37:19
  I
• 37:19
  really
• 37:19
  interacting
• 37:20
  with
• 37:20
  everybody.
• 37:20
  I
• 37:21
  love
• 37:21
  hearing
• 37:22
  about
• 37:22
  their
• 37:22
  stories
• 37:23
  and
• 37:23
  things.
• 37:23
  So
• 37:24
  I
• 37:24
  tend
• 37:24
  to
• 37:25
  go
• 37:25
  on
• 37:25
  a.
• 37:26
  I
• 37:26
  go
• 37:27
  onto
• 37:27
  the
• 37:27
  Discover
• 37:28
  Kids
• 37:29
  thing
• 37:29
  and
• 37:29
  I
• 37:30
  will
• 37:30
  like
• 37:31
  everybody's
• 37:31
  things
• 37:32
  or
• 37:32
  go
• 37:32
  onto
• 37:33
  their
• 37:33
  post
• 37:34
  and
• 37:34
  really
• 37:35
  have
• 37:35
  a
• 37:35
  look
• 37:35
  at
• 37:35
  them
• 37:35
  and
• 37:36
  I
• 37:36
  want
• 37:36
  to
• 37:36
  see
• 37:36
  because
• 37:36
  I'll
• 37:37
  find
• 37:37
  something
• 37:38
  different
• 37:38
  that
• 37:39
  I
• 37:39
  haven't
• 37:39
  done
• 37:39
  that
• 37:40
  I.
• 37:40
  Oh,
• 37:40
  that's
• 37:40
  a
• 37:41
  great
• 37:41
  idea.
• 37:42
  Or
• 37:42
  they'll
• 37:42
  have
• 37:43
  stickers
• 37:43
  or
• 37:44
  something
• 37:44
  different
• 37:44
  that
• 37:45
  I
• 37:45
  haven't
• 37:46
  tried,
• 37:47
  and
• 37:47
  I'll
• 37:47
  like
• 37:47
  them
• 37:48
  and
• 37:48
  start
• 37:48
  a
• 37:49
  conversation
• 37:49
  with
• 37:50
  them.
• 37:50
  I
• 37:50
  love
• 37:50
  to
• 37:50
  do
• 37:51
  it
• 37:51
  with
• 37:51
  other
• 37:51
  Canadians
• 37:52
  as
• 37:52
  well.
• 37:53
  It's
• 37:53
  so
• 37:53
  funny.
• 37:54
  There
• 37:54
  seems
• 37:55
  to

  be

  not

  very

  many

• 37:58
  It's

  just

  that
• 37:59
  we
• 37:59
  don't

  I

  don't

  disguise
• 38:04
  that

  I'm

  It
• 38:29
  took
• 38:29
  me
• 38:29
  a
• 38:29
  long
• 38:30
  time
• 38:31
  being
• 38:31
  older.
• 38:33
  I'm
• 38:33
  66,
• 38:34
  and
• 38:34
  it
• 38:35
  was
• 38:35
  very
• 38:35
  new
• 38:36
  for
• 38:36
  me,
• 38:36
  other
• 38:36
  than
• 38:36
  just
• 38:37
  posting
• 38:37
  about
• 38:37
  my
• 38:38
  family
• 38:38
  on
• 38:38
  Facebook.
• 38:39
  It
• 38:39
  took
• 38:39
  me
• 38:39
  a
• 38:40
  long
• 38:40
  time
• 38:41
  to.
• 38:41
  To
• 38:41
  really
• 38:42
  get
• 38:42
  out
• 38:42
  there.
• 38:42
  And
• 38:43
  you're
• 38:43
  serving
• 38:44
  yourself
• 38:44
  up
• 38:44
  on
• 38:45
  a
• 38:45
  platter,
• 38:45
  right?
• 38:46
  Absolutely.
• 38:47
  Like,
• 38:47
  I
• 38:47
  had
• 38:48
  that
• 38:48
  imposter
• 38:49
  syndrome.
• 38:50
  Here
• 38:50
  I
• 38:50
  was
• 38:50
  an
• 38:50
  ultrasound
• 38:51
  tech,
• 38:51
  registered
• 38:52
  ultrasound
• 38:52
  tech,
• 38:52
  doing
• 38:53
  that
• 38:53
  for
• 38:53
  36
• 38:54
  years,
• 38:55
  and
• 38:55
  it's
• 38:56
  like
• 38:57
  having
• 38:57
  to
• 38:57
  tell
• 38:58
  all
• 38:58
  my
• 38:58
  friends,
• 38:59
  family,
• 38:59
  and
• 38:59
  everybody,
• 39:00
  oh,
• 39:00
  this
• 39:00
  is
• 39:00
  what
• 39:00
  I'm
• 39:00
  doing
• 39:01
  now.
• 39:01
  And
• 39:01
  they're
• 39:01
  like,
• 39:02
  what?
• 39:03
  It's
• 39:03
  really
• 39:04
  funny.
• 39:05
  But,
• 39:05
  yeah.
• 39:06
  So
• 39:06
  getting
• 39:06
  more
• 39:07
  followers
• 39:08
  is
• 39:08
  just
• 39:08
  interacting,
• 39:10
  I
• 39:10
  think
• 39:11
  getting
• 39:11
  in
• 39:11
  because
• 39:12
  other
• 39:12
  people
• 39:12
  want
• 39:13
  you
• 39:14
  to
• 39:14
  like
• 39:14
  what
• 39:14
  they're
• 39:14
  doing
• 39:15
  as
• 39:15
  well.
• 39:15
  And
• 39:15
  that
• 39:15
  will
• 39:16
  get
• 39:16
  a
• 39:16
  conversation
• 39:16
  going.
• 39:17
  And
• 39:17
  then
• 39:17
  before
• 39:18
  you
• 39:18
  know
• 39:18
  it,
• 39:18
  you
• 39:18
  have
• 39:19
  several
• 39:19
  other
• 39:19
  people
• 39:20
  getting
• 39:20
  involved.
• 39:21
  Every
• 39:22
  time
• 39:22
  you
• 39:22
  do
• 39:22
  that,
• 39:22
  you
• 39:22
  get
• 39:23
  a
• 39:23
  bunch
• 39:23
  of
• 39:24
  followers.
• 39:25
  You
• 39:25
  follow
• 39:25
  each
• 39:26
  other
• 39:26
  reviewing
• 39:27
  books
• 39:27
  for
• 39:27
  each
• 39:28
  other.
• 39:28
  I
• 39:28
  try
• 39:28
  and
• 39:29
  help
• 39:29
  out
• 39:29
  that
• 39:29
  way.
• 39:30
  So
• 39:31
  I
• 39:31
  think
• 39:31
  all
• 39:31
  of
• 39:31
  that
• 39:32
  increases
• 39:32
  your
• 39:33
  followers
• 39:33
  on
• 39:34
  Instagram
• 39:34
  before
• 39:34
  you
• 39:35
  know
• 39:35
  it.
• 39:35
  That's
• 39:35
  terrific.
• 39:36
  Yeah.
• 39:38
  So
• 39:38
  when
• 39:38
  you
• 39:39
  launched
• 39:39
  your
• 39:40
  first
• 39:40
  book,
• 39:42
  did
• 39:42
  you
• 39:42
  have
• 39:42
  many
• 39:43
  followers?
• 39:44
  Like,
• 39:44
  how
• 39:44
  did
• 39:44
  you
• 39:44
  use
• 39:45
  your
• 39:45
  social
• 39:45
  media
• 39:46
  to
• 39:46
  promote
• 39:47
  Penny
• 39:47
  Girls
• 39:48
  Rescue?
• 39:50
  I
• 39:51
  literally
• 39:52
  went
• 39:52
  through
• 39:53
  every
• 39:53
  friend
• 39:53
  I
• 39:54
  had
• 39:55
  on
• 39:56
  Facebook
• 39:57
  and
• 39:57
  wrote
• 39:57
  to
• 39:58
  them
• 39:58
  individually,
• 39:59
  texted
• 39:59
  them,
• 40:00
  and
• 40:00
  asked
• 40:01
  them
• 40:01
  if
• 40:01
  they
• 40:01
  would
• 40:01
  support
• 40:02
  me.
• 40:03
  Because
• 40:03
  even
• 40:03
  when
• 40:04
  I
• 40:04
  first
• 40:04
  announced
• 40:05
  that's
• 40:05
  what
• 40:05
  I
• 40:05
  was
• 40:06
  doing.
• 40:06
  When
• 40:06
  I
• 40:07
  changed
• 40:07
  to
• 40:07
  my
• 40:08
  author
• 40:08
  page,
• 40:10
  I
• 40:10
  found
• 40:10
  a
• 40:10
  lot
• 40:10
  of
• 40:11
  people.
• 40:12
  Everybody
• 40:12
  thinks
• 40:13
  everybody's
• 40:13
  scamming
• 40:14
  each
• 40:14
  other.
• 40:15
  A
• 40:16
  lot
• 40:16
  of
• 40:16
  people
• 40:16
  thought
• 40:16
  it
• 40:16
  was
• 40:17
  scamming.
• 40:18
  Had
• 40:18
  one
• 40:18
  of
• 40:18
  my
• 40:19
  friends
• 40:20
  from
• 40:20
  high
• 40:20
  school
• 40:21
  report
• 40:22
  Facebook.
• 40:24
  It
• 40:24
  was
• 40:24
  an
• 40:25
  imposter,
• 40:26
  and
• 40:27
  it
• 40:27
  wasn't
• 40:27
  me.
• 40:27
  And
• 40:28
  I
• 40:28
  wrote
• 40:28
  her
• 40:28
  and
• 40:28
  I
• 40:28
  said,
• 40:29
  terry,
• 40:30
  it's
• 40:30
  me.
• 40:30
  And
• 40:30
  she
• 40:31
  said,
• 40:31
  oh,
• 40:31
  I'm
• 40:31
  so
• 40:31
  sorry.
• 40:33
  Actually,
• 40:33
  I
• 40:33
  went
• 40:33
  offline
• 40:34
  for,
• 40:34
  I
• 40:34
  think
• 40:34
  it
• 40:35
  was
• 40:35
  three
• 40:35
  days.
• 40:36
  I
• 40:36
  love
• 40:36
  it.
• 40:37
  And
• 40:37
  she
• 40:37
  said,
• 40:37
  she
• 40:38
  was
• 40:38
  so
• 40:38
  scorched.
• 40:39
  Funny.
• 40:40
  But
• 40:40
  I
• 40:40
  wrote
• 40:41
  everybody
• 40:42
  individually,
• 40:42
  and
• 40:43
  then
• 40:43
  I
• 40:43
  went
• 40:43
  on
• 40:44
  Facebook
• 40:44
  and
• 40:44
  instagram
• 40:45
  and
• 40:45
  went
• 40:45
  into
• 40:45
  all
• 40:46
  the
• 40:46
  children's
• 40:46
  authors.
• 40:47
  There's.
• 40:47
  I
• 40:47
  didn't
• 40:47
  know
• 40:48
  there
• 40:48
  was
• 40:48
  such
• 40:48
  a
• 40:49
  web
• 40:49
  of
• 40:50
  us.
• 40:50
  There's
• 40:51
  so
• 40:51
  many
• 40:51
  authors.
• 40:52
  And
• 40:52
  just
• 40:53
  texted
• 40:54
  each
• 40:54
  one
• 40:54
  of
• 40:54
  them
• 40:55
  if
• 40:55
  I
• 40:55
  could
• 40:55
  get
• 40:55
  a
• 40:55
  message
• 40:56
  through.
• 40:56
  I
• 40:56
  put
• 40:56
  a
• 40:56
  message
• 40:57
  through
• 40:57
  and
• 40:57
  said,
• 40:58
  this
• 40:58
  is
• 40:58
  what
• 40:58
  I'm
• 40:58
  doing.
• 40:59
  My
• 41:00
  new
• 41:00
  book
• 41:00
  is
• 41:00
  coming
• 41:00
  out.
• 41:01
  Then
• 41:01
  will
• 41:01
  you
• 41:01
  support
• 41:01
  me?
• 41:02
  Will
• 41:02
  you
• 41:02
  be
• 41:02
  on
• 41:02
  my
• 41:03
  team?
• 41:04
  And
• 41:04
  so
• 41:04
  some
• 41:05
  were
• 41:05
  a
• 41:05
  little
• 41:06
  snotty,
• 41:06
  but
• 41:07
  a
• 41:07
  lot
• 41:07
  were
• 41:08
  friendly.
• 41:08
  And
• 41:08
  that's
• 41:09
  how
• 41:09
  I
• 41:09
  met
• 41:09
  this
• 41:09
  one
• 41:09
  girl,
• 41:10
  Rachelle,
• 41:11
  who
• 41:11
  invited
• 41:12
  me
• 41:12
  into
• 41:12
  this
• 41:12
  Kids
• 41:13
  Discover
• 41:14
  Kids
• 41:14
  Books.
• 41:15
  And
• 41:16
  that
• 41:16
  was
• 41:16
  a
• 41:17
  really
• 41:17
  great
• 41:17
  turning
• 41:18
  point
• 41:18
  there
• 41:19
  because
• 41:20
  they
• 41:20
  actually
• 41:20
  helped
• 41:21
  me
• 41:21
  on
• 41:21
  the
• 41:21
  day
• 41:21
  of
• 41:22
  my
• 41:22
  launch
• 41:22
  and
• 41:22
  did
• 41:23
  their
• 41:23
  own
• 41:23
  little
• 41:24
  launch
• 41:24
  online.
• 41:25
  They
• 41:26
  all
• 41:26
  supported
• 41:26
  that,
• 41:27
  which
• 41:27
  was
• 41:27
  very
• 41:27
  nice.
• 41:29
  I
• 41:30
  love
• 41:30
  that.
• 41:30
  And
• 41:30
  that's
• 41:31
  what
• 41:31
  I've
• 41:31
  found.
• 41:31
  I've
• 41:32
  talked
• 41:32
  about
• 41:32
  it
• 41:32
  quite
• 41:33
  often.
• 41:33
  Is
• 41:33
  I.
• 41:34
  I
• 41:34
  just
• 41:34
  love
• 41:35
  the
• 41:36
  children's
• 41:36
  book
• 41:36
  author
• 41:37
  community.
• 41:37
  They're
• 41:38
  so
• 41:38
  giving.
• 41:39
  It
• 41:39
  feels
• 41:39
  so
• 41:39
  good.
• 41:40
  Yeah.
• 41:41
  Back
• 41:41
  in
• 41:41
  January,
• 41:42
  the
• 41:42
  fires
• 41:43
  in
• 41:43
  la,
• 41:44
  one
• 41:44
  of
• 41:44
  the
• 41:44
  authors
• 41:45
  in
• 41:45
  our
• 41:45
  group,
• 41:45
  Christy
• 41:46
  Bradbury,
• 41:47
  she
• 41:47
  lives
• 41:47
  near
• 41:47
  la.
• 41:48
  She
• 41:48
  used
• 41:48
  to
• 41:48
  teach
• 41:49
  around
• 41:49
  there.
• 41:49
  She
• 41:50
  came
• 41:50
  up
• 41:50
  with
• 41:50
  this
• 41:51
  idea,
• 41:52
  what
• 41:52
  if
• 41:52
  we
• 41:52
  all
• 41:52
  donate
• 41:53
  a
• 41:53
  book
• 41:54
  because
• 41:55
  five
• 41:55
  elementary
• 41:56
  schools
• 41:56
  had
• 41:56
  burned
• 41:57
  to
• 41:57
  the
• 41:57
  ground.
• 41:57
  Oh,
• 41:58
  my
• 41:58
  goodness.
• 41:58
  And
• 41:58
  so
• 41:59
  this
• 41:59
  started
• 41:59
  getting
• 42:00
  around.
• 42:00
  And
• 42:02
  before
• 42:02
  he
• 42:02
  knew,
• 42:03
  there's
• 42:03
  like
• 42:04
  hundreds
• 42:04
  of
• 42:04
  books
• 42:05
  were
• 42:05
  donated.
• 42:06
  So
• 42:06
  I
• 42:06
  donated
• 42:07
  eight
• 42:07
  of
• 42:07
  my
• 42:08
  own,
• 42:08
  my
• 42:08
  husband
• 42:08
  and
• 42:08
  I.
• 42:09
  And
• 42:09
  then
• 42:10
  I
• 42:10
  asked
• 42:10
  my
• 42:10
  family
• 42:11
  and
• 42:11
  friends,
• 42:11
  I
• 42:11
  said,
• 42:11
  would
• 42:11
  you
• 42:12
  like
• 42:12
  to
• 42:12
  purchase
• 42:12
  one
• 42:12
  of
• 42:13
  my
• 42:13
  books
• 42:14
  for
• 42:14
  donation
• 42:15
  and
• 42:15
  we'll
• 42:15
  send
• 42:16
  them
• 42:16
  all
• 42:16
  down.
• 42:16
  So
• 42:16
  we
• 42:16
  sent
• 42:17
  another
• 42:17
  20
• 42:17
  books
• 42:18
  down.
• 42:18
  So
• 42:19
  28
• 42:19
  books
• 42:20
  from
• 42:20
  Penny
• 42:21
  Girl's
• 42:21
  Rescue
• 42:21
  are
• 42:21
  down
• 42:21
  there
• 42:22
  that
• 42:22
  have
• 42:22
  been
• 42:22
  donated,
• 42:23
  which
• 42:23
  is
• 42:23
  really
• 42:24
  heartwarming.
• 42:26
  And,
• 42:27
  well,
• 42:27
  I
• 42:27
  put
• 42:27
  stickers
• 42:28
  on
• 42:28
  the
• 42:28
  inside
• 42:30
  of
• 42:30
  who
• 42:30
  it
• 42:30
  was
• 42:30
  from
• 42:31
  in
• 42:31
  my
• 42:31
  family
• 42:31
  or
• 42:32
  friends.
• 42:32
  And
• 42:33
  I
• 42:33
  asked
• 42:33
  them
• 42:33
  first
• 42:34
  and
• 42:35
  where
• 42:35
  in
• 42:36
  Canada
• 42:36
  they
• 42:36
  came
• 42:37
  from.
• 42:37
  And
• 42:38
  I
• 42:38
  thought
• 42:38
  it'd
• 42:38
  be
• 42:38
  really
• 42:39
  fun
• 42:40
  for
• 42:40
  the
• 42:40
  children
• 42:41
  receiving
• 42:41
  them
• 42:41
  to
• 42:42
  see
• 42:42
  where
• 42:42
  they
• 42:42
  came
• 42:42
  from.
• 42:43
  Teacher
• 42:43
  pulls
• 42:44
  out
• 42:44
  the
• 42:44
  map
• 42:44
  and
• 42:45
  says,
• 42:45
  okay,
• 42:45
  these
• 42:46
  books
• 42:46
  came
• 42:46
  from
• 42:47
  a
• 42:47
  couple
• 42:48
  from
• 42:48
  out
• 42:48
  west
• 42:48
  because
• 42:48
  I
• 42:48
  have
• 42:49
  family
• 42:49
  in
• 42:50
  Victoria
• 42:51
  and
• 42:51
  my
• 42:52
  nephew
• 42:52
  isn't
• 42:53
  actually
• 42:53
  in
• 42:53
  California,
• 42:54
  all
• 42:55
  over
• 42:55
  Ontario
• 42:56
  and
• 42:56
  places.
• 42:56
  I
• 42:56
  thought
• 42:57
  it
• 42:57
  would
• 42:57
  be
• 42:57
  really
• 42:57
  fun
• 42:57
  for
• 42:58
  them.
• 42:58
  That
• 42:58
  is
• 42:59
  a
• 42:59
  terrific
• 42:59
  idea.
• 43:00
  Wow.
• 43:03
  Now,
• 43:03
  I
• 43:03
  know
• 43:03
  you
• 43:04
  talked
• 43:04
  about
• 43:04
  Penny
• 43:05
  being
• 43:05
  your
• 43:05
  motivation
• 43:06
  to
• 43:06
  write
• 43:07
  your
• 43:07
  children's
• 43:07
  book.
• 43:09
  Let's
• 43:09
  dig
• 43:09
  into
• 43:10
  that
• 43:10
  a
• 43:10
  little
• 43:10
  bit
• 43:10
  deeper
• 43:11
  because
• 43:11
  you
• 43:11
  said
• 43:11
  you
• 43:12
  saw
• 43:12
  her
• 43:12
  profile.
• 43:14
  Talk
• 43:14
  to
• 43:14
  us
• 43:14
  about
• 43:15
  that
• 43:16
  aspect
• 43:17
  of
• 43:17
  it.
• 43:18
  Her
• 43:18
  picture.
• 43:19
  She
• 43:19
  looks
• 43:19
  so.
• 43:21
  They
• 43:21
  just
• 43:21
  had
• 43:21
  her
• 43:21
  on
• 43:22
  a
• 43:22
  leash
• 43:22
  because
• 43:22
  they
• 43:22
  just
• 43:22
  take
• 43:23
  a
• 43:23
  picture
• 43:23
  and
• 43:23
  had
• 43:23
  Penny
• 43:24
  across
• 43:24
  it
• 43:25
  and
• 43:26
  she
• 43:26
  looked
• 43:27
  so
• 43:28
  shy
• 43:29
  and
• 43:29
  worried
• 43:30
  and
• 43:30
  wondering,
• 43:31
  what
• 43:31
  the
• 43:31
  heck's
• 43:32
  going
• 43:32
  on
• 43:32
  now,
• 43:33
  but
• 43:34
  her
• 43:34
  beauty.
• 43:35
  Black
• 43:36
  dog
• 43:36
  with
• 43:36
  a
• 43:37
  white
• 43:37
  star
• 43:37
  on
• 43:38
  her
• 43:38
  chest
• 43:38
  and
• 43:40
  the
• 43:40
  wrinkles
• 43:40
  with
• 43:41
  the
• 43:41
  ears,
• 43:42
  her
• 43:42
  face.
• 43:42
  She
• 43:43
  was
• 43:43
  just
• 43:43
  so
• 43:43
  sweet.
• 43:44
  And
• 43:44
  I
• 43:45
  just
• 43:45
  thought
• 43:46
  maybe
• 43:46
  we
• 43:47
  could
• 43:47
  help
• 43:47
  you.
• 43:47
  This
• 43:48
  one
• 43:48
  dog,
• 43:48
  I
• 43:48
  just
• 43:49
  fell
• 43:49
  in
• 43:49
  love
• 43:49
  with
• 43:50
  her.
• 43:50
  The
• 43:50
  bio,
• 43:51
  like
• 43:51
  the
• 43:51
  bio
• 43:52
  was
• 43:52
  just
• 43:52
  walks
• 43:53
  on
• 43:53
  a
• 43:53
  leash.
• 43:53
  Check.
• 43:54
  She
• 43:54
  was
• 43:55
  trained,
• 43:56
  house
• 43:56
  trained.
• 43:57
  And
• 43:58
  quite
• 43:59
  a
• 43:59
  few
• 43:59
  things
• 43:59
  were,
• 43:59
  yes.
• 44:00
  But
• 44:01
  the
• 44:01
  next
• 44:01
  day
• 44:01
  we
• 44:02
  thought,
• 44:02
  oh,
• 44:02
  she
• 44:02
  walks
• 44:03
  on
• 44:03
  a
• 44:03
  leash.
• 44:03
  We
• 44:04
  walked
• 44:04
  out
• 44:04
  down
• 44:05
  the
• 44:05
  driveway,
• 44:05
  the
• 44:06
  long
• 44:06
  driveway.
• 44:07
  She
• 44:07
  lay
• 44:07
  on
• 44:08
  the
• 44:08
  sidewalk,
• 44:09
  four
• 44:09
  legs
• 44:10
  out,
• 44:11
  and
• 44:11
  she
• 44:11
  weighed
• 44:12
  45
• 44:12
  pounds.
• 44:13
  I'm
• 44:13
  like,
• 44:13
  she's
• 44:14
  pure
• 44:14
  muscle.
• 44:14
  What
• 44:14
  are
• 44:14
  we
• 44:15
  going
• 44:15
  to
• 44:15
  do
• 44:15
  with
• 44:15
  this?
• 44:15
  She
• 44:16
  doesn't
• 44:16
  walk
• 44:16
  on
• 44:16
  a
• 44:16
  leash.
• 44:17
  But
• 44:17
  you
• 44:17
  know
• 44:17
  what?
• 44:18
  She
• 44:18
  was
• 44:18
  so
• 44:19
  stressed
• 44:20
  because
• 44:20
  of
• 44:21
  all
• 44:21
  she'd
• 44:21
  been
• 44:21
  through.
• 44:22
  I
• 44:22
  can
• 44:22
  imagine
• 44:22
  so
• 44:23
  much
• 44:23
  just.
• 44:23
  And
• 44:24
  we
• 44:24
  knew
• 44:24
  her
• 44:24
  age
• 44:25
  going
• 44:25
  into
• 44:25
  the
• 44:26
  shelter,
• 44:26
  we
• 44:26
  were
• 44:26
  told
• 44:27
  three
• 44:27
  months.
• 44:27
  So
• 44:28
  I
• 44:28
  found
• 44:29
  her
• 44:29
  birth
• 44:29
  date
• 44:29
  on
• 44:29
  one
• 44:30
  of
• 44:30
  the
• 44:30
  papers
• 44:30
  we
• 44:30
  got
• 44:31
  and
• 44:31
  she
• 44:31
  was
• 44:32
  nine
• 44:32
  months
• 44:32
  old
• 44:32
  when
• 44:32
  we
• 44:32
  got
• 44:33
  her.
• 44:33
  So
• 44:33
  she
• 44:34
  spent
• 44:34
  six
• 44:34
  months
• 44:34
  in
• 44:35
  a
• 44:35
  high
• 44:35
  kill
• 44:35
  shelter.
• 44:36
  So
• 44:37
  can
• 44:37
  you
• 44:37
  imagine
• 44:37
  what
• 44:38
  day
• 44:38
  in,
• 44:39
  day
• 44:39
  out,
• 44:39
  six
• 44:40
  months
• 44:40
  in
• 44:40
  there,
• 44:41
  wondering
• 44:41
  what
• 44:42
  you're
• 44:42
  waiting
• 44:42
  for.
• 44:43
  You
• 44:43
  saw
• 44:43
  these
• 44:44
  initial
• 44:44
  pictures.
• 44:45
  You
• 44:45
  get
• 44:45
  Penny
• 44:46
  into
• 44:46
  your
• 44:46
  life
• 44:47
  and
• 44:47
  you're
• 44:47
  also
• 44:48
  writing
• 44:49
  a
• 44:49
  children's
• 44:49
  book
• 44:50
  about
• 44:51
  her
• 44:51
  life.
• 44:52
  And
• 44:54
  as
• 44:54
  she
• 44:55
  got
• 44:55
  to
• 44:55
  be
• 44:55
  part
• 44:55
  of
• 44:56
  your
• 44:56
  family,
• 44:56
  Tell
• 44:57
  us
• 44:57
  about
• 44:58
  her
• 44:59
  character
• 44:59
  development
• 45:01
  based
• 45:01
  on
• 45:01
  all
• 45:02
  of
• 45:02
  that
• 45:02
  experience
• 45:03
  with
• 45:03
  her
• 45:03
  coming
• 45:04
  into
• 45:04
  your
• 45:04
  life
• 45:05
  and
• 45:05
  then
• 45:05
  growing
• 45:06
  into
• 45:06
  your
• 45:07
  family.
• 45:09
  At
• 45:09
  the
• 45:09
  transport,
• 45:10
  she
• 45:11
  was
• 45:11
  the
• 45:11
  last
• 45:11
  dog
• 45:12
  to
• 45:12
  come
• 45:12
  out.
• 45:13
  We
• 45:13
  were
• 45:13
  there
• 45:13
  for
• 45:13
  hours.
• 45:14
  We're
• 45:14
  like,
• 45:14
  oh,
• 45:15
  can
• 45:15
  we
• 45:15
  get
• 45:15
  this?
• 45:15
  Can
• 45:16
  we
• 45:16
  get
• 45:16
  going?
• 45:16
  We
• 45:16
  drove
• 45:16
  the
• 45:17
  furthest
• 45:17
  and
• 45:17
  we
• 45:17
  waited
• 45:18
  the
• 45:18
  longest
• 45:18
  because
• 45:18
  there
• 45:19
  were
• 45:19
  14
• 45:19
  dogs.
• 45:20
  They
• 45:20
  brought
• 45:21
  her
• 45:21
  out,
• 45:21
  brought
• 45:21
  her
• 45:22
  over
• 45:22
  to
• 45:22
  us.
• 45:23
  She
• 45:23
  licked
• 45:24
  my
• 45:24
  hand,
• 45:24
  wagged
• 45:25
  her
• 45:25
  tail
• 45:25
  and
• 45:25
  jumped
• 45:25
  into
• 45:25
  the
• 45:26
  car.
• 45:26
  Just
• 45:26
  take
• 45:27
  me
• 45:27
  home
• 45:27
  is
• 45:28
  what
• 45:28
  I
• 45:28
  felt
• 45:29
  she
• 45:29
  was
• 45:29
  saying.
• 45:29
  We
• 45:30
  had
• 45:30
  a
• 45:30
  bit
• 45:30
  of
• 45:30
  a
• 45:30
  hard
• 45:30
  time
• 45:31
  on
• 45:31
  the
• 45:31
  way
• 45:31
  home
• 45:31
  because
• 45:32
  we
• 45:32
  didn't
• 45:32
  know
• 45:32
  this
• 45:33
  dog.
• 45:33
  She
• 45:34
  was
• 45:34
  standing
• 45:34
  on
• 45:34
  all
• 45:34
  fours
• 45:35
  in
• 45:35
  the
• 45:35
  backseat,
• 45:36
  screeching.
• 45:36
  And
• 45:36
  I'm
• 45:37
  thinking,
• 45:37
  I
• 45:37
  wonder
• 45:37
  what's
• 45:38
  wrong.
• 45:38
  You're
• 45:38
  trying
• 45:39
  to
• 45:40
  read
• 45:41
  this
• 45:41
  dog.
• 45:41
  We've
• 45:42
  had
• 45:42
  a
• 45:42
  previous
• 45:42
  dog
• 45:42
  and
• 45:43
  completely
• 45:43
  different.
• 45:44
  It's
• 45:45
  like
• 45:45
  all
• 45:45
  our
• 45:45
  personalities.
• 45:46
  Every
• 45:46
  dog
• 45:47
  has
• 45:47
  a
• 45:47
  personality.
• 45:49
  So
• 45:49
  we
• 45:49
  brought
• 45:49
  her
• 45:50
  home.
• 45:50
  Basically.
• 45:50
  We
• 45:51
  got
• 45:51
  home
• 45:51
  at
• 45:51
  three
• 45:51
  in
• 45:51
  the
• 45:52
  morning
• 45:52
  and
• 45:53
  we
• 45:53
  have
• 45:53
  three
• 45:53
  steps
• 45:54
  up
• 45:54
  to
• 45:54
  the
• 45:54
  front
• 45:55
  door.
• 45:56
  Pulled
• 45:56
  her
• 45:56
  up
• 45:56
  there
• 45:57
  and
• 45:57
  they
• 45:57
  told
• 45:58
  us
• 45:58
  to
• 45:58
  buy
• 45:58
  a
• 45:58
  crate.
• 45:59
  She's
• 46:00
  going
• 46:00
  to
• 46:00
  be
• 46:00
  this
• 46:00
  big.
• 46:00
  Buy
• 46:01
  a
• 46:01
  crate
• 46:01
  this
• 46:01
  size,
• 46:02
  don't
• 46:03
  have
• 46:03
  anything.
• 46:03
  These
• 46:04
  dogs
• 46:04
  there
• 46:04
  was
• 46:04
  like
• 46:05
  it
• 46:05
  came
• 46:05
  with
• 46:05
  a
• 46:05
  manual.
• 46:06
  These
• 46:06
  dogs
• 46:07
  could
• 46:07
  eat
• 46:08
  stuffing,
• 46:09
  they
• 46:09
  could
• 46:09
  bite
• 46:10
  up
• 46:10
  your
• 46:10
  furniture.
• 46:10
  They
• 46:11
  all
• 46:11
  these
• 46:11
  things
• 46:11
  they
• 46:11
  can
• 46:12
  do.
• 46:12
  So
• 46:12
  we're
• 46:13
  told
• 46:13
  to
• 46:13
  put
• 46:13
  her
• 46:14
  in
• 46:14
  a
• 46:14
  crate
• 46:14
  with
• 46:14
  no
• 46:15
  padding
• 46:15
  on
• 46:16
  the
• 46:16
  bottom.
• 46:16
  And
• 46:17
  I'm
• 46:17
  thinking
• 46:17
  to
• 46:17
  myself,
• 46:17
  that's
• 46:18
  gotta
• 46:18
  be
• 46:18
  awfully
• 46:18
  uncomfortable.
• 46:19
  Put
• 46:20
  her
• 46:20
  in.
• 46:20
  She
• 46:20
  started
• 46:20
  crying.
• 46:21
  My
• 46:22
  husband
• 46:22
  spent
• 46:22
  the
• 46:22
  first
• 46:23
  night.
• 46:23
  He
• 46:24
  slept
• 46:24
  beside
• 46:25
  her.
• 46:25
  He
• 46:25
  slept
• 46:25
  on
• 46:25
  the
• 46:26
  couch
• 46:26
  and
• 46:26
  pulled
• 46:27
  the
• 46:27
  crate
• 46:27
  up
• 46:27
  right
• 46:28
  beside.
• 46:29
  And
• 46:29
  as
• 46:30
  the
• 46:30
  nights
• 46:31
  went
• 46:31
  on,
• 46:31
  we
• 46:31
  started
• 46:31
  to
• 46:32
  realize,
• 46:32
  this
• 46:32
  dog
• 46:33
  isn't
• 46:33
  vicious.
• 46:34
  This
• 46:34
  dog
• 46:34
  isn't
• 46:35
  going
• 46:35
  to
• 46:37
  the
• 46:37
  furniture,
• 46:39
  no
• 46:39
  touching
• 46:39
  anything.
• 46:40
  It
• 46:40
  was
• 46:40
  the
• 46:40
  funniest
• 46:41
  thing,
• 46:41
  though.
• 46:41
  We
• 46:41
  were
• 46:41
  in
• 46:41
  the
• 46:41
  kitchen
• 46:42
  and
• 46:42
  we
• 46:42
  heard
• 46:42
  something.
• 46:42
  And
• 46:43
  I
• 46:43
  walked
• 46:43
  into
• 46:43
  the
• 46:44
  living
• 46:44
  room.
• 46:44
  She
• 46:44
  was
• 46:44
  standing
• 46:46
  on
• 46:46
  all
• 46:46
  fours,
• 46:47
  standing
• 46:47
  straight
• 46:48
  up
• 46:48
  on
• 46:48
  our
• 46:48
  leather
• 46:49
  couch,
• 46:49
  looking
• 46:50
  like,
• 46:51
  what
• 46:51
  is
• 46:51
  this?
• 46:52
  And
• 46:52
  how
• 46:52
  would
• 46:53
  she
• 46:53
  dealt
• 46:53
  with.
• 46:53
  How
• 46:53
  would
• 46:54
  she
• 46:54
  know?
• 46:54
  She
• 46:54
  went
• 46:54
  from
• 46:55
  a
• 46:55
  farm
• 46:55
  to
• 46:55
  a
• 46:56
  shelter
• 46:56
  with
• 46:56
  cages.
• 46:57
  Know
• 46:58
  what
• 46:58
  it
• 46:58
  was?
• 46:58
  And
• 46:58
  I.
• 46:58
  She's
• 46:59
  looking
• 46:59
  at
• 46:59
  me
• 46:59
  like,
• 47:00
  should
• 47:01
  I
• 47:01
  be
• 47:01
  up
• 47:01
  here?
• 47:01
  I
• 47:01
  said,
• 47:02
  down,
• 47:03
  and
• 47:03
  just
• 47:03
  pulled
• 47:03
  her
• 47:03
  down.
• 47:04
  But,
• 47:04
  yeah,
• 47:05
  throughout
• 47:05
  the
• 47:05
  days
• 47:05
  we.
• 47:06
  She
• 47:06
  started.
• 47:07
  I
• 47:07
  just
• 47:07
  sat
• 47:07
  on
• 47:07
  the
• 47:08
  floor
• 47:08
  and
• 47:08
  let
• 47:08
  her
• 47:08
  come
• 47:09
  to
• 47:09
  me.
• 47:09
  Because
• 47:10
  I
• 47:10
  realized
• 47:10
  that
• 47:11
  she
• 47:11
  was
• 47:11
  shy.
• 47:12
  She
• 47:13
  was
• 47:13
  frightened,
• 47:14
  wondering,
• 47:15
  what
• 47:15
  was
• 47:15
  this?
• 47:16
  Was
• 47:16
  this
• 47:16
  her
• 47:16
  last
• 47:16
  stop?
• 47:17
  Are
• 47:17
  they
• 47:17
  going
• 47:17
  to
• 47:18
  leave
• 47:18
  me?
• 47:18
  All
• 47:19
  these
• 47:19
  questions.
• 47:20
  Probably
• 47:21
  let
• 47:21
  her
• 47:21
  come
• 47:21
  to
• 47:21
  me.
• 47:22
  She
• 47:22
  didn't
• 47:22
  even
• 47:22
  know
• 47:23
  what
• 47:23
  to
• 47:23
  do
• 47:23
  with
• 47:23
  toys.
• 47:24
  But
• 47:25
  as
• 47:25
  the
• 47:25
  first
• 47:26
  couple
• 47:26
  of
• 47:26
  weeks,
• 47:26
  and
• 47:27
  she
• 47:27
  was
• 47:27
  afraid
• 47:27
  of
• 47:27
  the
• 47:27
  stairs,
• 47:28
  that
• 47:28
  was
• 47:28
  the
• 47:28
  other
• 47:28
  thing.
• 47:29
  I
• 47:29
  couldn't
• 47:29
  get
• 47:30
  her
• 47:30
  to
• 47:30
  go
• 47:30
  down
• 47:30
  the
• 47:30
  back
• 47:30
  stairs
• 47:31
  to
• 47:31
  go
• 47:31
  out
• 47:32
  to
• 47:32
  the
• 47:32
  backyard.
• 47:33
  So
• 47:33
  I
• 47:34
  phoned
• 47:34
  the
• 47:34
  fellow
• 47:34
  who
• 47:35
  helped
• 47:35
  us
• 47:35
  adopt
• 47:36
  her,
• 47:36
  and
• 47:36
  I
• 47:37
  said,
• 47:38
  you
• 47:38
  got
• 47:38
  a
• 47:38
  problem?
• 47:39
  And
• 47:39
  he
• 47:39
  said,
• 47:39
  what?
• 47:40
  I
• 47:40
  said,
• 47:40
  she
• 47:41
  won't
• 47:41
  go
• 47:41
  down
• 47:41
  the
• 47:41
  stairs.
• 47:42
  She's
• 47:42
  afraid
• 47:42
  of
• 47:43
  the
• 47:43
  stairs.
• 47:43
  He
• 47:44
  says,
• 47:44
  all
• 47:44
  I
• 47:44
  can
• 47:44
  tell
• 47:45
  you
• 47:45
  is
• 47:45
  a
• 47:45
  long
• 47:46
  leash
• 47:46
  and
• 47:46
  lots
• 47:46
  of
• 47:47
  treats.
• 47:47
  And
• 47:47
  I'm
• 47:48
  like,
• 47:49
  what?
• 47:50
  I'm
• 47:50
  like,
• 47:51
  I'm
• 47:51
  a
• 47:51
  smart
• 47:51
  person.
• 47:51
  What
• 47:51
  does
• 47:52
  that
• 47:52
  mean?
• 47:53
  She
• 47:53
  said,
• 47:55
  long
• 47:55
  leash.
• 47:55
  Because
• 47:56
  you're
• 47:56
  going
• 47:56
  to
• 47:56
  be
• 47:57
  starting
• 47:57
  at
• 47:58
  the
• 47:58
  top
• 47:58
  and
• 47:58
  going
• 47:58
  down
• 47:59
  or
• 47:59
  starting
• 47:59
  at
• 47:59
  the
• 48:00
  bottom
• 48:00
  and
• 48:00
  going
• 48:00
  up,
• 48:00
  but
• 48:00
  you're
• 48:01
  going
• 48:01
  to
• 48:01
  treat
• 48:01
  her
• 48:02
  if
• 48:02
  she
• 48:02
  puts
• 48:02
  her
• 48:02
  nose
• 48:03
  near
• 48:03
  the
• 48:04
  stairs,
• 48:04
  if
• 48:04
  she
• 48:05
  looks
• 48:05
  at
• 48:05
  the
• 48:05
  stairs,
• 48:06
  if
• 48:06
  she
• 48:06
  puts
• 48:06
  her
• 48:07
  snout
• 48:07
  there,
• 48:07
  if
• 48:07
  she
• 48:08
  does
• 48:08
  anything
• 48:10
  towards
• 48:10
  the
• 48:10
  stairs,
• 48:11
  treat.
• 48:12
  So
• 48:12
  that's
• 48:12
  what
• 48:13
  I
• 48:13
  had
• 48:13
  to
• 48:13
  do.
• 48:13
  It
• 48:13
  took
• 48:14
  about
• 48:14
  a
• 48:14
  week,
• 48:15
  and
• 48:16
  we
• 48:16
  got
• 48:16
  her
• 48:16
  up
• 48:16
  the
• 48:17
  stairs
• 48:17
  to
• 48:17
  the
• 48:17
  second
• 48:18
  level
• 48:18
  and
• 48:18
  down
• 48:18
  the
• 48:19
  stairs
• 48:19
  to
• 48:19
  the
• 48:19
  back
• 48:19
  door.
• 48:20
  Everything
• 48:20
  had
• 48:21
  to
• 48:21
  be
• 48:21
  done
• 48:23
  a
• 48:23
  certain
• 48:23
  way.
• 48:24
  Like,
• 48:24
  I
• 48:24
  had
• 48:24
  no
• 48:25
  idea
• 48:25
  when
• 48:25
  she
• 48:25
  needed
• 48:25
  to
• 48:25
  go
• 48:26
  outside.
• 48:26
  She
• 48:27
  had
• 48:27
  one
• 48:27
  accident
• 48:27
  inside,
• 48:28
  and
• 48:28
  I
• 48:30
  finally
• 48:31
  thought,
• 48:31
  okay,
• 48:31
  I'm
• 48:31
  just
• 48:31
  going
• 48:31
  to
• 48:32
  take
• 48:32
  her
• 48:32
  out
• 48:32
  every
• 48:32
  hour,
• 48:33
  figure
• 48:33
  this
• 48:33
  all
• 48:34
  out.
• 48:35
  But
• 48:35
  as
• 48:35
  we
• 48:36
  got
• 48:36
  to
• 48:36
  know
• 48:36
  her,
• 48:36
  she's
• 48:37
  a
• 48:37
  funny,
• 48:38
  quirky
• 48:38
  little
• 48:39
  Dog.
• 48:39
  She
• 48:40
  loves,
• 48:40
  loves
• 48:41
  to
• 48:41
  hug,
• 48:41
  but
• 48:41
  in
• 48:41
  a
• 48:41
  funny
• 48:42
  way,
• 48:42
  she
• 48:42
  puts
• 48:42
  her
• 48:42
  snout
• 48:43
  between
• 48:43
  your
• 48:43
  legs
• 48:44
  when
• 48:44
  you're
• 48:45
  standing
• 48:45
  and
• 48:46
  pushes
• 48:46
  herself
• 48:46
  in
• 48:47
  almost.
• 48:47
  And
• 48:48
  that's
• 48:48
  her
• 48:48
  hug.
• 48:48
  That's
• 48:49
  Penny's
• 48:49
  hug.
• 48:50
  And
• 48:50
  she
• 48:51
  likes
• 48:51
  to
• 48:51
  play
• 48:51
  games.
• 48:52
  When
• 48:52
  we
• 48:52
  come
• 48:52
  home,
• 48:53
  she
• 48:53
  wants
• 48:53
  to
• 48:53
  be
• 48:53
  snuggled.
• 48:54
  I
• 48:55
  played
• 48:55
  with
• 48:55
  her
• 48:55
  a
• 48:55
  few
• 48:55
  minutes.
• 48:56
  All
• 48:56
  of
• 48:56
  this
• 48:56
  started
• 48:57
  coming
• 48:57
  out.
• 48:58
  It
• 48:59
  took
• 48:59
  weeks
• 48:59
  and
• 48:59
  weeks.
• 49:00
  And
• 49:01
  that
• 49:01
  crate.
• 49:02
  We
• 49:02
  figured
• 49:02
  out.
• 49:03
  One
• 49:03
  night
• 49:03
  she
• 49:03
  disappeared.
• 49:04
  I
• 49:04
  was
• 49:05
  putting
• 49:05
  her
• 49:05
  into
• 49:05
  the
• 49:05
  crate
• 49:06
  each
• 49:06
  night.
• 49:06
  At
• 49:07
  first
• 49:07
  they
• 49:07
  said,
• 49:07
  lock
• 49:08
  it
• 49:08
  every
• 49:08
  night.
• 49:08
  You
• 49:08
  never
• 49:09
  know
• 49:09
  what
• 49:09
  they
• 49:09
  can
• 49:09
  do.
• 49:10
  And
• 49:11
  she
• 49:11
  cried.
• 49:12
  I
• 49:12
  actually
• 49:13
  sang
• 49:13
  to
• 49:13
  her.
• 49:15
  I
• 49:15
  sang
• 49:16
  Twinkle,
• 49:16
  Twinkle
• 49:17
  Little
• 49:17
  Star.
• 49:19
  And
• 49:20
  she
• 49:20
  calmed
• 49:20
  down,
• 49:20
  and
• 49:21
  that's
• 49:21
  how
• 49:21
  she
• 49:21
  went
• 49:21
  to
• 49:22
  sleep.
• 49:22
  And
• 49:22
  then
• 49:23
  one
• 49:23
  night,
• 49:24
  I
• 49:24
  thought,
• 49:24
  okay,
• 49:25
  I'm
• 49:25
  going
• 49:25
  to
• 49:25
  leave
• 49:26
  the
• 49:26
  door
• 49:26
  open.
• 49:26
  All
• 49:27
  she
• 49:27
  did
• 49:27
  was
• 49:27
  bring
• 49:27
  her
• 49:28
  paws
• 49:28
  and
• 49:28
  stick
• 49:28
  them
• 49:29
  out.
• 49:29
  I
• 49:29
  don't
• 49:29
  really
• 49:29
  want
• 49:30
  to
• 49:30
  be
• 49:30
  in
• 49:30
  here,
• 49:31
  but
• 49:31
  I'll
• 49:31
  be
• 49:31
  in
• 49:31
  here,
• 49:31
  but
• 49:32
  I
• 49:32
  want
• 49:32
  to
• 49:32
  put
• 49:33
  something
• 49:33
  out.
• 49:33
  So
• 49:33
  she
• 49:34
  put
• 49:34
  her
• 49:34
  paws
• 49:34
  out
• 49:34
  the
• 49:35
  front.
• 49:35
  And
• 49:36
  then
• 49:37
  about
• 49:37
  a
• 49:37
  month
• 49:37
  after
• 49:38
  we
• 49:38
  got
• 49:38
  her,
• 49:38
  I
• 49:38
  couldn't
• 49:39
  find
• 49:39
  her.
• 49:40
  The
• 49:40
  lights
• 49:40
  were
• 49:41
  down.
• 49:41
  She's
• 49:41
  black.
• 49:42
  When
• 49:42
  her
• 49:42
  head's
• 49:42
  down,
• 49:42
  you
• 49:43
  can't
• 49:43
  see
• 49:43
  her.
• 49:44
  So
• 49:45
  I'm
• 49:45
  looking
• 49:45
  everywhere
• 49:45
  and
• 49:45
  I
• 49:46
  look
• 49:46
  and
• 49:46
  I
• 49:46
  hear
• 49:46
  something.
• 49:47
  I
• 49:47
  look
• 49:47
  under
• 49:47
  the
• 49:48
  table.
• 49:48
  She
• 49:48
  puts
• 49:49
  her
• 49:49
  head
• 49:49
  up
• 49:49
  and
• 49:49
  her
• 49:49
  big
• 49:49
  white
• 49:50
  patch
• 49:50
  shows.
• 49:51
  I
• 49:51
  said,
• 49:51
  what
• 49:51
  are
• 49:51
  you
• 49:52
  doing
• 49:52
  under
• 49:52
  there?
• 49:53
  She's
• 49:53
  just
• 49:54
  looking
• 49:54
  at
• 49:54
  me
• 49:54
  like,
• 49:56
  I
• 49:56
  don't
• 49:56
  understand.
• 49:58
  I
• 49:58
  thought,
• 49:58
  okay,
• 49:59
  tonight's
• 49:59
  the
• 49:59
  night
• 49:59
  we're
• 50:00
  going
• 50:00
  to
• 50:01
  try
• 50:01
  you
• 50:01
  out
• 50:01
  of
• 50:01
  the
• 50:02
  crate.
• 50:03
  Pulled
• 50:03
  the
• 50:04
  dog
• 50:04
  bed
• 50:04
  up
• 50:04
  to
• 50:04
  the
• 50:05
  bedroom.
• 50:06
  She
• 50:06
  lay
• 50:06
  on
• 50:06
  there
• 50:06
  and
• 50:07
  has
• 50:07
  ever
• 50:07
  since.
• 50:08
  She's
• 50:08
  never
• 50:09
  eaten
• 50:09
  anything,
• 50:10
  torn,
• 50:10
  anything
• 50:11
  chewed,
• 50:11
  anything.
• 50:12
  It
• 50:12
  takes
• 50:13
  time
• 50:13
  to,
• 50:15
  I
• 50:15
  guess,
• 50:16
  for
• 50:16
  your
• 50:16
  protection,
• 50:16
  tell
• 50:17
  you
• 50:17
  all
• 50:17
  these
• 50:17
  things
• 50:18
  that
• 50:18
  could
• 50:18
  happen
• 50:19
  because
• 50:19
  they
• 50:19
  have
• 50:20
  happened
• 50:20
  with
• 50:21
  other
• 50:21
  dogs.
• 50:21
  Understand?
• 50:22
  Complete.
• 50:23
  Yeah.
• 50:23
  I
• 50:23
  want
• 50:23
  to
• 50:24
  talk
• 50:24
  to
• 50:24
  you
• 50:24
  about
• 50:24
  your
• 50:24
  theme.
• 50:25
  Talk
• 50:25
  to
• 50:26
  us
• 50:26
  about
• 50:26
  the
• 50:26
  theme
• 50:26
  of
• 50:27
  this
• 50:27
  book,
• 50:28
  Pennygirl's
• 50:29
  rescue.
• 50:29
  And
• 50:29
  then
• 50:31
  connect
• 50:31
  us
• 50:31
  to
• 50:32
  the
• 50:32
  two
• 50:32
  other
• 50:33
  books
• 50:33
  in
• 50:33
  the
• 50:33
  series.
• 50:35
  So
• 50:35
  this
• 50:36
  theme
• 50:36
  is
• 50:37
  the
• 50:37
  uncertainty
• 50:38
  of
• 50:38
  what's
• 50:39
  happened
• 50:39
  to
• 50:39
  her,
• 50:40
  the
• 50:40
  waiting.
• 50:42
  So
• 50:42
  at
• 50:42
  the
• 50:43
  beginning,
• 50:44
  the
• 50:44
  little
• 50:44
  white
• 50:44
  dog
• 50:45
  leaving
• 50:45
  the
• 50:46
  family,
• 50:46
  and
• 50:47
  that's
• 50:47
  her
• 50:47
  memory.
• 50:48
  When
• 50:48
  we're
• 50:49
  talking
• 50:49
  about,
• 50:50
  is
• 50:50
  this
• 50:50
  the
• 50:50
  day
• 50:50
  Penny
• 50:51
  will
• 50:51
  be
• 50:51
  adopted?
• 50:52
  She's
• 50:52
  remembering
• 50:53
  he's
• 50:53
  gone.
• 50:54
  So
• 50:54
  she's
• 50:54
  thinking,
• 50:56
  when's
• 50:56
  my
• 50:57
  turn?
• 50:57
  And
• 50:58
  that's
• 50:59
  the
• 50:59
  start
• 50:59
  of
• 50:59
  it.
• 50:59
  But
• 50:59
  then
• 51:00
  we
• 51:00
  get
• 51:00
  into.
• 51:01
  She
• 51:01
  doesn't
• 51:01
  really
• 51:02
  know
• 51:02
  what
• 51:02
  she's
• 51:02
  waiting
• 51:02
  for,
• 51:03
  but
• 51:03
  what
• 51:03
  she's
• 51:03
  waiting
• 51:03
  for
• 51:04
  is
• 51:04
  us
• 51:04
  to
• 51:05
  someone
• 51:05
  to
• 51:05
  adopt
• 51:06
  her.
• 51:06
  So
• 51:07
  that's
• 51:07
  the
• 51:07
  emotional
• 51:09
  journey
• 51:10
  where
• 51:10
  she.
• 51:11
  Things
• 51:11
  are
• 51:11
  so
• 51:11
  uncertain
• 51:13
  from
• 51:13
  day
• 51:13
  to
• 51:13
  day.
• 51:13
  Will
• 51:14
  I
• 51:14
  have
• 51:14
  friends
• 51:15
  Will
• 51:15
  I
• 51:15
  fit
• 51:15
  in?
• 51:16
  How
• 51:16
  will
• 51:17
  I
• 51:17
  feel
• 51:17
  with
• 51:18
  different
• 51:18
  food
• 51:18
  every
• 51:18
  day?
• 51:19
  Will
• 51:19
  I
• 51:19
  make
• 51:20
  a
• 51:20
  friend?
• 51:20
  And
• 51:20
  that's
• 51:20
  why
• 51:21
  I
• 51:21
  introduced
• 51:21
  Tammy,
• 51:23
  the
• 51:23
  shelter
• 51:23
  worker.
• 51:24
  I
• 51:24
  introduce
• 51:25
  her
• 51:25
  to
• 51:26
  give
• 51:26
  Penny
• 51:26
  hope
• 51:27
  that
• 51:27
  maybe
• 51:28
  something
• 51:28
  better
• 51:28
  is
• 51:29
  going
• 51:29
  to
• 51:29
  happen
• 51:29
  in
• 51:30
  the
• 51:30
  near
• 51:30
  future.
• 51:30
  Hopefully
• 51:31
  that's
• 51:32
  why
• 51:32
  I
• 51:32
  introduced
• 51:33
  that
• 51:33
  girl.
• 51:34
  Starting
• 51:34
  to
• 51:35
  take
• 51:35
  her
• 51:35
  out
• 51:35
  on
• 51:36
  the
• 51:36
  walk
• 51:37
  and
• 51:37
  a
• 51:37
  little
• 51:38
  bit
• 51:38
  of
• 51:38
  fun
• 51:38
  there
• 51:38
  where
• 51:39
  she
• 51:40
  gets
• 51:40
  hit
• 51:40
  in
• 51:40
  the
• 51:40
  snout
• 51:41
  by
• 51:41
  the
• 51:41
  frog.
• 51:42
  That
• 51:42
  actually
• 51:43
  happened
• 51:44
  here
• 51:45
  soon
• 51:45
  after
• 51:45
  we
• 51:45
  got
• 51:46
  her.
• 51:47
  She's
• 51:47
  really
• 51:47
  funny.
• 51:48
  She.
• 51:49
  We
• 51:49
  take
• 51:49
  her
• 51:49
  down
• 51:49
  to
• 51:50
  the
• 51:50
  lake
• 51:50
  and
• 51:50
  she
• 51:50
  sticks
• 51:50
  her
• 51:50
  snout
• 51:51
  into
• 51:51
  the
• 51:51
  reeds.
• 51:52
  And
• 51:53
  I
• 51:53
  don't
• 51:53
  know
• 51:54
  what's
• 51:54
  going
• 51:54
  to
• 51:54
  come
• 51:54
  out
• 51:54
  next
• 51:55
  time,
• 51:55
  but
• 51:55
  each
• 51:56
  time
• 51:56
  there
• 51:56
  was.
• 51:56
  It
• 51:57
  was
• 51:57
  a
• 51:57
  frog,
• 51:57
  then
• 51:57
  it
• 51:57
  was
• 51:58
  a
• 51:58
  mouse,
• 51:58
  then
• 51:58
  it
• 51:58
  was
• 51:58
  a
• 51:59
  snake.
• 51:59
  And
• 52:00
  that
• 52:00
  really
• 52:00
  happened.
• 52:01
  But
• 52:02
  this
• 52:02
  is
• 52:03
  her
• 52:03
  uncertain
• 52:03
  time
• 52:04
  and
• 52:05
  wondering
• 52:05
  what's
• 52:05
  going
• 52:05
  to
• 52:06
  happen
• 52:06
  and
• 52:06
  hope
• 52:07
  that
• 52:07
  we
• 52:08
  got
• 52:08
  adopted.
• 52:09
  Plenty
• 52:09
  of
• 52:09
  the
• 52:09
  sheep
• 52:10
  who
• 52:11
  I
• 52:11
  get
• 52:11
  adopted.
• 52:12
  And
• 52:13
  that's
• 52:14
  the
• 52:14
  first
• 52:14
  story.
• 52:15
  And
• 52:15
  then
• 52:15
  she
• 52:15
  does
• 52:15
  find
• 52:16
  out
• 52:16
  she's
• 52:16
  a
• 52:16
  dog
• 52:17
  that
• 52:17
  understands
• 52:17
  people.
• 52:18
  So
• 52:18
  I
• 52:18
  have
• 52:18
  her
• 52:19
  thinking
• 52:19
  out
• 52:19
  loud
• 52:20
  throughout
• 52:20
  the
• 52:20
  story
• 52:21
  because
• 52:22
  it
• 52:22
  gives
• 52:22
  kids
• 52:23
  a
• 52:23
  little
• 52:23
  more
• 52:23
  info
• 52:24
  and
• 52:24
  it's
• 52:25
  fun
• 52:25
  to
• 52:25
  follow
• 52:25
  along
• 52:26
  like
• 52:26
  that.
• 52:26
  And
• 52:27
  so
• 52:27
  the
• 52:27
  next
• 52:27
  story
• 52:28
  is
• 52:29
  meeting
• 52:30
  us
• 52:30
  at
• 52:30
  the
• 52:30
  transport
• 52:31
  and
• 52:31
  this
• 52:32
  new
• 52:32
  part
• 52:32
  of
• 52:32
  her
• 52:33
  life,
• 52:34
  being
• 52:34
  adopted,
• 52:36
  going
• 52:36
  to
• 52:37
  a
• 52:37
  new
• 52:37
  forever
• 52:37
  home
• 52:38
  and
• 52:38
  the
• 52:38
  hope
• 52:38
  that
• 52:39
  life
• 52:39
  will
• 52:39
  be
• 52:40
  better
• 52:40
  and
• 52:40
  as
• 52:41
  a
• 52:41
  free
• 52:41
  dog
• 52:41
  again
• 52:43
  and
• 52:43
  loved
• 52:43
  and
• 52:44
  cherished
• 52:45
  by
• 52:45
  us,
• 52:46
  actually.
• 52:47
  And
• 52:47
  then
• 52:47
  the
• 52:47
  third
• 52:48
  story,
• 52:48
  I
• 52:48
  haven't
• 52:49
  given
• 52:50
  it
• 52:50
  a
• 52:50
  title
• 52:50
  yet,
• 52:50
  but
• 52:52
  I'm
• 52:52
  thinking
• 52:52
  of
• 52:53
  Penny
• 52:53
  Girl's
• 52:54
  new
• 52:54
  friends
• 52:54
  showing
• 52:54
  that,
• 52:55
  okay,
• 52:55
  I'm
• 52:55
  settled,
• 52:57
  I'm
• 52:58
  happy,
• 52:58
  they're
• 52:59
  not
• 52:59
  going
• 52:59
  to
• 52:59
  leave
• 52:59
  me.
• 53:00
  She
• 53:00
  still
• 53:00
  follows
• 53:01
  me
• 53:01
  closely.
• 53:01
  If
• 53:02
  I
• 53:02
  go
• 53:02
  down
• 53:02
  to
• 53:02
  my
• 53:02
  mom's
• 53:03
  to
• 53:03
  visit
• 53:03
  or
• 53:04
  anywhere,
• 53:04
  she's
• 53:04
  always
• 53:05
  watching
• 53:05
  to
• 53:05
  make
• 53:06
  sure
• 53:06
  that
• 53:06
  we're
• 53:06
  going
• 53:06
  to
• 53:06
  take
• 53:07
  her
• 53:07
  home.
• 53:07
  We
• 53:08
  have
• 53:08
  left
• 53:08
  her
• 53:08
  there
• 53:08
  before,
• 53:09
  overnight,
• 53:09
  like
• 53:10
  on
• 53:10
  purpose,
• 53:10
  and
• 53:11
  she
• 53:12
  pines
• 53:12
  for
• 53:12
  us.
• 53:13
  But
• 53:14
  I
• 53:14
  think
• 53:14
  that
• 53:14
  might
• 53:15
  be
• 53:15
  the
• 53:15
  plight
• 53:15
  of
• 53:16
  a
• 53:16
  rescue
• 53:16
  dog
• 53:17
  because
• 53:17
  they
• 53:18
  just
• 53:18
  are
• 53:18
  never
• 53:18
  quite
• 53:19
  sure.
• 53:19
  You
• 53:19
  think
• 53:19
  that
• 53:19
  might
• 53:20
  go
• 53:20
  away,
• 53:20
  but
• 53:20
  possibly
• 53:21
  not.
• 53:22
  So
• 53:22
  the
• 53:22
  third
• 53:22
  one,
• 53:23
  I
• 53:23
  want
• 53:23
  to
• 53:23
  introduce
• 53:24
  friends
• 53:24
  that
• 53:24
  she's
• 53:25
  met
• 53:25
  in
• 53:26
  the
• 53:26
  yard.
• 53:27
  She
• 53:27
  starts
• 53:28
  going
• 53:28
  to
• 53:28
  the
• 53:28
  dog
• 53:28
  park.
• 53:29
  I've
• 53:30
  had
• 53:30
  several
• 53:31
  friends
• 53:31
  ask
• 53:31
  me,
• 53:31
  is
• 53:32
  there
• 53:32
  any
• 53:32
  way
• 53:32
  you
• 53:32
  could
• 53:32
  put
• 53:33
  my
• 53:33
  dog
• 53:33
  into
• 53:34
  your
• 53:34
  story?
• 53:35
  I
• 53:35
  love
• 53:35
  that.
• 53:36
  So
• 53:36
  we
• 53:36
  might
• 53:36
  do
• 53:36
  that
• 53:36
  at
• 53:36
  a
• 53:37
  dog
• 53:37
  park
• 53:37
  or
• 53:37
  something.
• 53:38
  Have
• 53:38
  them
• 53:38
  meet
• 53:39
  somebody
• 53:39
  that
• 53:39
  I
• 53:39
  know.
• 53:40
  They
• 53:40
  don't
• 53:40
  live
• 53:40
  here,
• 53:41
  but
• 53:41
  it
• 53:41
  would
• 53:41
  be
• 53:41
  fun
• 53:41
  to
• 53:42
  do
• 53:42
  that.
• 53:43
  That's
• 53:43
  her
• 53:43
  journey
• 53:44
  so
• 53:44
  far.
• 53:44
  And
• 53:45
  now
• 53:46
  that
• 53:46
  you've
• 53:47
  revealed
• 53:47
  that
• 53:48
  you've
• 53:48
  had
• 53:48
  these
• 53:49
  3,000
• 53:49
  words,
• 53:50
  talk
• 53:51
  to
• 53:51
  us
• 53:51
  about
• 53:51
  your
• 53:52
  writing
• 53:52
  process
• 53:53
  as
• 53:53
  you
• 53:54
  you
• 53:54
  went
• 53:54
  from
• 53:55
  Penny
• 53:55
  Girls
• 53:55
  Rescue.
• 53:56
  Now
• 53:56
  you're
• 53:57
  formulating,
• 53:58
  taking
• 53:58
  some
• 53:59
  of
• 53:59
  the
• 53:59
  words
• 53:59
  that
• 53:59
  you've
• 54:00
  written
• 54:00
  in
• 54:01
  the
• 54:01
  past,
• 54:02
  formulating
• 54:02
  that
• 54:03
  into
• 54:03
  the
• 54:03
  second
• 54:03
  book
• 54:04
  and
• 54:04
  then
• 54:04
  the
• 54:05
  writing
• 54:05
  process
• 54:05
  to
• 54:06
  get
• 54:06
  the
• 54:06
  finished
• 54:07
  third
• 54:08
  book.
• 54:08
  Take
• 54:09
  us
• 54:09
  on
• 54:09
  that
• 54:09
  journey.
• 54:10
  How
• 54:10
  you
• 54:10
  see
• 54:10
  it.
• 54:11
  It's
• 54:12
  the
• 54:12
  funniest
• 54:12
  thing.
• 54:12
  These
• 54:13
  words
• 54:13
  just
• 54:13
  literally
• 54:14
  fell
• 54:14
  out
• 54:14
  of
• 54:15
  me.
• 54:16
  And
• 54:16
  I
• 54:16
  think
• 54:17
  it's
• 54:17
  because
• 54:17
  it
• 54:17
  happened.
• 54:18
  I
• 54:18
  think
• 54:18
  it's
• 54:19
  easier
• 54:19
  to
• 54:19
  write,
• 54:21
  in
• 54:21
  my
• 54:21
  opinion,
• 54:22
  because
• 54:22
  it's
• 54:23
  something
• 54:23
  in
• 54:23
  front
• 54:24
  of
• 54:24
  me
• 54:24
  or
• 54:24
  behind
• 54:24
  me
• 54:25
  that's
• 54:25
  happened
• 54:26
  and
• 54:26
  I
• 54:26
  can
• 54:27
  always
• 54:27
  recall
• 54:28
  it.
• 54:29
  I've
• 54:29
  got
• 54:29
  very
• 54:30
  vivid,
• 54:30
  I'm
• 54:31
  very
• 54:31
  descriptive
• 54:32
  and
• 54:33
  I'm
• 54:33
  emotional
• 54:34
  myself.
• 54:34
  And
• 54:35
  I
• 54:35
  think
• 54:35
  that's
• 54:35
  why
• 54:35
  I
• 54:35
  could
• 54:36
  write
• 54:36
  it,
• 54:36
  to
• 54:36
  make
• 54:36
  people
• 54:37
  understand,
• 54:37
  like,
• 54:37
  what
• 54:38
  she's
• 54:38
  been
• 54:38
  through.
• 54:39
  And
• 54:39
  maybe
• 54:39
  that's
• 54:40
  part
• 54:40
  of
• 54:40
  being.
• 54:40
  Having
• 54:40
  worked
• 54:41
  in
• 54:41
  the
• 54:41
  healthcare
• 54:43
  sector,
• 54:43
  I'm
• 54:43
  not
• 54:43
  sure,
• 54:44
  or
• 54:44
  just
• 54:44
  me,
• 54:45
  or
• 54:45
  maybe
• 54:46
  that
• 54:46
  made
• 54:46
  me
• 54:46
  be
• 54:46
  able
• 54:46
  to
• 54:47
  work
• 54:47
  in
• 54:47
  the
• 54:47
  healthcare
• 54:48
  sector.
• 54:49
  But
• 54:49
  this
• 54:51
  writing
• 54:51
  process
• 54:51
  just
• 54:52
  fallen
• 54:52
  out
• 54:52
  of
• 54:52
  me.
• 54:53
  Like,
• 54:53
  I'll
• 54:53
  start
• 54:53
  writing
• 54:54
  again
• 54:54
  and
• 54:55
  think
• 54:55
  of
• 54:55
  it's
• 54:56
  all
• 54:56
  the
• 54:56
  things
• 54:56
  that
• 54:56
  she's
• 54:57
  done
• 54:57
  or
• 54:58
  little
• 54:58
  things
• 54:58
  that
• 54:59
  she's
• 54:59
  done
• 54:59
  and
• 54:59
  I've
• 54:59
  put
• 55:00
  together
• 55:00
  with
• 55:01
  things
• 55:01
  that
• 55:01
  work.
• 55:02
  And
• 55:02
  it
• 55:02
  seems
• 55:03
  to
• 55:03
  me
• 55:03
  now,
• 55:03
  if
• 55:04
  I
• 55:04
  am
• 55:04
  wrong,
• 55:04
  please
• 55:05
  let
• 55:05
  me
• 55:05
  know.
• 55:06
  Is
• 55:06
  the
• 55:07
  third
• 55:07
  book.
• 55:09
  The
• 55:09
  words
• 55:10
  that
• 55:10
  you've
• 55:10
  written
• 55:11
  may
• 55:12
  change
• 55:13
  probably
• 55:13
  the
• 55:14
  most
• 55:15
  in
• 55:15
  the
• 55:15
  third
• 55:16
  book
• 55:16
  because
• 55:16
  of
• 55:17
  all
• 55:17
  these
• 55:17
  influences
• 55:18
  you're
• 55:18
  now
• 55:18
  getting.
• 55:19
  Like
• 55:19
  you
• 55:19
  said,
• 55:20
  your
• 55:20
  friends,
• 55:20
  and
• 55:21
  they're
• 55:21
  talking
• 55:21
  about,
• 55:22
  oh,
• 55:22
  Judy,
• 55:23
  can
• 55:23
  you
• 55:23
  sneak
• 55:23
  my
• 55:24
  dog
• 55:24
  into
• 55:24
  the
• 55:25
  story?
• 55:25
  And
• 55:25
  then
• 55:26
  even
• 55:26
  the
• 55:26
  development
• 55:27
  of
• 55:27
  friends
• 55:28
  for
• 55:28
  Penny
• 55:29
  that
• 55:29
  she's
• 55:30
  made.
• 55:30
  You
• 55:31
  wouldn't
• 55:31
  even
• 55:31
  known
• 55:32
  she
• 55:32
  had
• 55:32
  those
• 55:32
  friends.
• 55:34
  No.
• 55:34
  And
• 55:34
  also
• 55:34
  her
• 55:35
  fears,
• 55:36
  like
• 55:36
  in
• 55:36
  the
• 55:37
  second
• 55:37
  book,
• 55:37
  we
• 55:38
  talk
• 55:38
  about
• 55:38
  her
• 55:38
  fears.
• 55:39
  She's
• 55:40
  afraid
• 55:40
  of
• 55:40
  bunnies,
• 55:41
  she's
• 55:41
  afraid
• 55:41
  of
• 55:42
  kitties.
• 55:42
  There's
• 55:42
  a
• 55:43
  particular
• 55:43
  cat
• 55:43
  in
• 55:44
  our
• 55:44
  street
• 55:44
  that
• 55:44
  drives
• 55:44
  her
• 55:45
  insane.
• 55:46
  And
• 55:46
  I
• 55:47
  think
• 55:47
  he
• 55:47
  knows
• 55:47
  that.
• 55:47
  He
• 55:47
  was
• 55:47
  up
• 55:48
  on
• 55:48
  our
• 55:48
  roof
• 55:49
  the
• 55:49
  other
• 55:49
  day.
• 55:50
  Drives
• 55:50
  her
• 55:50
  crazy.
• 55:51
  She's
• 55:51
  afraid
• 55:51
  of
• 55:52
  him.
• 55:52
  So
• 55:52
  talking
• 55:53
  about
• 55:53
  fears,
• 55:53
  like,
• 55:54
  I
• 55:54
  can
• 55:54
  use
• 55:55
  the
• 55:55
  fact
• 55:55
  that
• 55:56
  she's
• 55:56
  afraid
• 55:57
  of
• 55:57
  the
• 55:57
  stairs.
• 55:57
  I
• 55:57
  could
• 55:58
  use
• 55:58
  that
• 55:58
  in
• 55:58
  the
• 55:59
  third
• 55:59
  book
• 56:00
  and
• 56:00
  how
• 56:00
  we
• 56:01
  managed
• 56:01
  it.
• 56:01
  And
• 56:02
  it
• 56:02
  might
• 56:02
  help
• 56:02
  other
• 56:02
  people.
• 56:03
  And
• 56:03
  about
• 56:03
  the
• 56:04
  other
• 56:04
  fears
• 56:04
  of
• 56:04
  the
• 56:04
  animals
• 56:05
  and
• 56:05
  things,
• 56:06
  I
• 56:06
  think
• 56:06
  bringing
• 56:06
  in
• 56:07
  and
• 56:07
  bringing
• 56:08
  in
• 56:08
  animals
• 56:08
  that
• 56:08
  she
• 56:09
  would
• 56:09
  like.
• 56:10
  So
• 56:10
  there's
• 56:10
  some
• 56:10
  happy
• 56:11
  parts
• 56:11
  of
• 56:11
  it
• 56:11
  as
• 56:11
  well,
• 56:12
  like
• 56:12
  a
• 56:12
  bird
• 56:13
  on
• 56:13
  the
• 56:13
  windowsill,
• 56:13
  which
• 56:14
  she
• 56:15
  did
• 56:15
  enjoy
• 56:16
  ages
• 56:16
  ago,
• 56:16
  but
• 56:17
  I
• 56:17
  wrote
• 56:17
  that
• 56:18
  into
• 56:18
  the
• 56:18
  story.
• 56:19
  But
• 56:19
  every
• 56:19
  time
• 56:20
  something
• 56:20
  happens,
• 56:21
  I
• 56:21
  sometimes
• 56:21
  wake
• 56:22
  up
• 56:22
  and
• 56:22
  I'll
• 56:22
  write
• 56:22
  like
• 56:23
  a
• 56:24
  couple
• 56:24
  of
• 56:24
  sentences
• 56:25
  and
• 56:25
  then
• 56:25
  it'll
• 56:26
  just
• 56:26
  sit
• 56:26
  there
• 56:27
  like
• 56:27
  I
• 56:27
  haven't
• 56:27
  worked
• 56:28
  on
• 56:28
  it
• 56:28
  again
• 56:28
  for
• 56:28
  months,
• 56:30
  but
• 56:30
  I'm
• 56:30
  busy
• 56:31
  on
• 56:31
  getting
• 56:31
  these
• 56:32
  illustrations
• 56:32
  done
• 56:33
  and
• 56:33
  stuff
• 56:34
  and
• 56:34
  selling
• 56:34
  the
• 56:35
  first
• 56:35
  book.
• 56:35
  Yeah,
• 56:36
  for
• 56:36
  sure.
• 56:37
  In
• 56:38
  terms
• 56:38
  of
• 56:38
  success
• 56:39
  measurement,
• 56:40
  because
• 56:41
  now
• 56:41
  that
• 56:41
  you've
• 56:41
  been
• 56:41
  at
• 56:42
  this
• 56:42
  for
• 56:42
  a
• 56:42
  while,
• 56:43
  you've
• 56:44
  developed
• 56:45
  some
• 56:45
  unique
• 56:46
  relationships
• 56:47
  with
• 56:47
  your
• 56:48
  Instagram
• 56:49
  groups,
• 56:50
  which
• 56:50
  I
• 56:50
  love.
• 56:51
  What
• 56:51
  was
• 56:51
  your
• 56:51
  original
• 56:52
  thought
• 56:53
  of
• 56:54
  success
• 56:54
  for
• 56:54
  you
• 56:54
  with
• 56:55
  pennygirls
• 56:55
  Rescue
• 56:56
  and
• 56:57
  what
• 56:57
  does
• 56:58
  it
• 56:58
  look
• 56:58
  like
• 56:59
  now
• 56:59
  and
• 57:00
  what
• 57:00
  is
• 57:00
  it
• 57:00
  going
• 57:00
  to
• 57:01
  look
• 57:01
  like
• 57:01
  for
• 57:01
  your
• 57:01
  second
• 57:02
  book?
• 57:04
  That's
• 57:04
  a
• 57:05
  hard
• 57:05
  one.
• 57:06
  I
• 57:06
  guess
• 57:08
  the
• 57:08
  success
• 57:09
  that
• 57:09
  I
• 57:09
  feel
• 57:10
  is
• 57:12
  how
• 57:12
  people
• 57:12
  have
• 57:13
  loved
• 57:13
  the
• 57:13
  book.
• 57:14
  I'm
• 57:14
  finding
• 57:15
  that
• 57:16
  when
• 57:16
  people
• 57:17
  finally
• 57:18
  get
• 57:18
  it,
• 57:18
  they
• 57:19
  do
• 57:19
  really
• 57:19
  enjoy
• 57:19
  it
• 57:20
  and
• 57:20
  that
• 57:20
  really
• 57:20
  makes
• 57:20
  me
• 57:21
  happy.
• 57:21
  That's
• 57:21
  a
• 57:22
  success
• 57:22
  right
• 57:22
  there.
• 57:23
  It's
• 57:23
  getting
• 57:23
  it
• 57:24
  into
• 57:24
  people's
• 57:24
  hands.
• 57:25
  Right?
• 57:25
  Yes.
• 57:26
  We
• 57:26
  have
• 57:26
  realized,
• 57:27
  my
• 57:27
  husband
• 57:27
  and
• 57:27
  I,
• 57:28
  he
• 57:28
  comes
• 57:28
  to
• 57:28
  my
• 57:28
  shows
• 57:29
  and
• 57:29
  things
• 57:29
  with
• 57:29
  me.
• 57:29
  We've
• 57:30
  realized
• 57:30
  that
• 57:31
  me
• 57:31
  in
• 57:31
  person
• 57:33
  sells
• 57:33
  my
• 57:33
  books
• 57:33
  more
• 57:34
  than
• 57:34
  my
• 57:34
  books
• 57:35
  sitting
• 57:35
  there
• 57:36
  when
• 57:36
  I
• 57:36
  can't
• 57:37
  tell
• 57:38
  more
• 57:38
  about
• 57:38
  it
• 57:39
  and
• 57:40
  enlighten
• 57:40
  you
• 57:41
  on
• 57:41
  our
• 57:41
  love
• 57:41
  for
• 57:41
  Penny
• 57:42
  and
• 57:42
  things
• 57:43
  like
• 57:43
  that.
• 57:43
  People
• 57:44
  love
• 57:44
  to
• 57:44
  hear
• 57:45
  that.
• 57:45
  I
• 57:45
  have
• 57:45
  the
• 57:46
  dog.
• 57:46
  She's
• 57:46
  actually
• 57:47
  our
• 57:47
  dog.
• 57:48
  So
• 57:48
  we
• 57:48
  found
• 57:48
  that
• 57:49
  in
• 57:49
  person
• 57:50
  events
• 57:50
  are
• 57:50
  much
• 57:50
  better.
• 57:51
  We're
• 57:52
  making
• 57:52
  decent
• 57:52
  sales
• 57:53
  online.
• 57:53
  But
• 57:54
  I
• 57:54
  find
• 57:54
  going
• 57:55
  to
• 57:56
  Chapters,
• 57:57
  or
• 57:57
  Indigo
• 57:58
  they're
• 57:58
  called
• 57:58
  now,
• 57:59
  I've
• 57:59
  been
• 57:59
  doing
• 57:59
  that
• 58:00
  and
• 58:00
  that's
• 58:01
  been
• 58:01
  very
• 58:01
  successful.
• 58:03
  Now
• 58:04
  in
• 58:04
  the
• 58:04
  Trenton
• 58:05
  area
• 58:05
  or
• 58:05
  how
• 58:06
  far
• 58:06
  have
• 58:06
  you
• 58:06
  gone?
• 58:07
  Branched
• 58:08
  out.
• 58:09
  So
• 58:10
  I
• 58:10
  met
• 58:11
  somebody
• 58:11
  in
• 58:11
  this
• 58:12
  author
• 58:12
  group
• 58:12
  and
• 58:13
  they're
• 58:13
  from,
• 58:15
  I
• 58:15
  think
• 58:15
  around
• 58:16
  Hamilton
• 58:16
  area,
• 58:17
  which
• 58:18
  is
• 58:18
  west
• 58:18
  of
• 58:19
  us,
• 58:19
  quite
• 58:20
  west.
• 58:20
  A
• 58:20
  couple
• 58:20
  of
• 58:20
  hours.
• 58:21
  She
• 58:22
  had
• 58:22
  done
• 58:22
  the
• 58:23
  chapters
• 58:23
  and
• 58:23
  she
• 58:24
  said,
• 58:25
  I
• 58:25
  said,
• 58:25
  what
• 58:26
  do
• 58:26
  you
• 58:26
  do?
• 58:26
  How
• 58:26
  do
• 58:26
  you
• 58:26
  start?
• 58:27
  She
• 58:28
  said,
• 58:28
  just
• 58:29
  drop
• 58:29
  a
• 58:29
  pin
• 58:29
  where
• 58:30
  Trenton
• 58:30
  is
• 58:30
  and
• 58:31
  whatever
• 58:31
  you're
• 58:31
  willing
• 58:32
  to
• 58:32
  drive,
• 58:32
  do
• 58:32
  an
• 58:32
  hour
• 58:32
  and
• 58:33
  a
• 58:33
  half
• 58:33
  to
• 58:33
  start
• 58:33
  with.
• 58:34
  So
• 58:34
  that's
• 58:34
  what
• 58:34
  I
• 58:35
  did.
• 58:35
  So
• 58:36
  we've
• 58:36
  branched
• 58:36
  out.
• 58:36
  We
• 58:36
  did
• 58:37
  Belleville
• 58:37
  first,
• 58:38
  it's
• 58:39
  half
• 58:39
  an
• 58:39
  hour
• 58:40
  from
• 58:40
  us,
• 58:40
  Peterborough,
• 58:42
  which
• 58:42
  is
• 58:43
  northwest.
• 58:45
  And
• 58:45
  we've
• 58:45
  done
• 58:46
  Oshawa,
• 58:46
  which
• 58:46
  was
• 58:47
  our
• 58:47
  most
• 58:47
  successful
• 58:48
  so
• 58:48
  far.
• 58:49
  Much
• 58:49
  busier
• 58:49
  store
• 58:50
  as
• 58:50
  you
• 58:50
  get
• 58:50
  closer
• 58:51
  to
• 58:51
  Toronto.
• 58:52
  Shouldn't
• 58:52
  we
• 58:52
  just
• 58:53
  contact
• 58:53
  the
• 58:53
  store
• 58:54
  manager?
• 58:56
  I
• 58:56
  just
• 58:57
  phone
• 58:57
  or
• 58:57
  how
• 58:57
  did
• 58:58
  you
• 58:58
  go
• 58:58
  about
• 58:58
  doing
• 58:59
  this
• 58:59
  on
• 59:00
  the
• 59:00
  phone?
• 59:00
  I
• 59:00
  highly
• 59:01
  recommend
• 59:02
  phone
• 59:02
  conversation
• 59:03
  to
• 59:03
  start
• 59:03
  because
• 59:04
  everybody
• 59:05
  I've
• 59:05
  talked
• 59:05
  to
• 59:05
  have
• 59:06
  been
• 59:06
  so
• 59:06
  friendly
• 59:07
  and
• 59:07
  you
• 59:07
  just
• 59:08
  introduce
• 59:09
  yourself,
• 59:09
  I'm
• 59:10
  a
• 59:10
  local
• 59:10
  author.
• 59:11
  How
• 59:12
  would
• 59:12
  I
• 59:12
  go
• 59:12
  about
• 59:13
  possibly
• 59:13
  getting
• 59:14
  a
• 59:14
  book
• 59:14
  signing
• 59:14
  in
• 59:15
  your
• 59:15
  store?
• 59:16
  And
• 59:16
  they
• 59:17
  either
• 59:17
  answer
• 59:17
  you
• 59:18
  and
• 59:18
  say,
• 59:18
  here's
• 59:19
  the
• 59:19
  person's
• 59:19
  email,
• 59:20
  email
• 59:20
  them
• 59:20
  your
• 59:21
  a
• 59:21
  little
• 59:22
  bit
• 59:22
  about
• 59:22
  your
• 59:22
  book,
• 59:22
  a
• 59:23
  little
• 59:23
  bit
• 59:23
  about
• 59:23
  yourself
• 59:24
  and.
• 59:25
  Or
• 59:25
  they'll
• 59:26
  pass
• 59:26
  you
• 59:26
  on
• 59:26
  to
• 59:26
  the
• 59:26
  person
• 59:27
  that
• 59:27
  you're
• 59:28
  going
• 59:28
  to
• 59:28
  talk
• 59:28
  to,
• 59:28
  but
• 59:29
  it's
• 59:29
  usually
• 59:29
  an
• 59:29
  email,
• 59:30
  which
• 59:30
  is.
• 59:30
  Great
• 59:31
  and
• 59:31
  just
• 59:31
  for
• 59:32
  listeners.
• 59:32
  And
• 59:33
  is
• 59:33
  that
• 59:34
  Chapters
• 59:35
  Indigo
• 59:36
  is
• 59:36
  similar
• 59:37
  to
• 59:37
  Barnes
• 59:37
  and
• 59:37
  Noble
• 59:38
  in
• 59:38
  the
• 59:38
  United
• 59:39
  States?
• 59:39
  Very
• 59:39
  similar,
• 59:40
  yes.
• 59:40
  Yes.
• 59:41
  Okay.
• 59:41
  Yeah,
• 59:42
  Great.
• 59:42
  So
• 59:43
  I've
• 59:43
  done.
• 59:43
  And
• 59:44
  then
• 59:44
  we
• 59:44
  were
• 59:44
  asked
• 59:44
  when
• 59:44
  we
• 59:45
  went
• 59:45
  to
• 59:45
  Oshawa,
• 59:46
  we
• 59:46
  did
• 59:47
  so
• 59:47
  well.
• 59:47
  They
• 59:48
  asked
• 59:48
  us
• 59:48
  if
• 59:48
  we'd
• 59:48
  be
• 59:48
  interested
• 59:49
  in
• 59:49
  other
• 59:49
  stores
• 59:50
  contacting
• 59:50
  us
• 59:51
  and
• 59:52
  we
• 59:52
  said
• 59:52
  sure.
• 59:53
  I've
• 59:53
  been
• 59:53
  in
• 59:53
  contact
• 59:54
  with
• 59:54
  St.
• 59:54
  Catharines
• 59:55
  because
• 59:56
  of
• 59:56
  Penny
• 59:56
  being
• 59:57
  from
• 59:57
  that
• 59:57
  area
• 59:57
  and
• 59:57
  we
• 59:57
  love
• 59:58
  the
• 59:58
  Niagara
• 59:59
  area.
• 59:59
  Yes.
• 1:00:00
  We're
• 1:00:00
  trying
• 1:00:01
  to
• 1:00:01
  organize
• 1:00:02
  something
• 1:00:02
  in
• 1:00:02

• 1:00:04
  Catherine's
• 1:00:04
  chapters
• 1:00:05
  and
• 1:00:05
  possibly
• 1:00:06
  there's
• 1:00:06
  one
• 1:00:07
  near
• 1:00:07
  Hamilton
• 1:00:07
  that's
• 1:00:08
  not
• 1:00:08
  far
• 1:00:08
  from
• 1:00:08
  there.
• 1:00:09
  And
• 1:00:09
  we'd
• 1:00:10
  like
• 1:00:10
  to
• 1:00:10
  do
• 1:00:11
  the
• 1:00:11
  Eaton
• 1:00:12

  There's

  Young
• 1:00:15

• 1:00:15
  Bay,
• 1:00:15
  which
• 1:00:15
  is
• 1:00:16
  one
• 1:00:16
  of
• 1:00:16
  the.
• 1:00:16
  Just
• 1:00:17
  not
• 1:00:17
  far
• 1:00:17
  from
• 1:00:17
  the
• 1:00:17
  Eaton
• 1:00:18

  I
• 1:00:55

• 1:00:55
  my
• 1:00:55
  last
• 1:00:56
  four
• 1:00:56

  so
• 1:00:58
  engaging.
• 1:00:58
  For
• 1:00:59
  even
• 1:00:59
  the
• 1:00:59
  grouchiest
• 1:01:00
  person
• 1:01:00
  that
• 1:01:00
  walks
• 1:01:01
  through
• 1:01:01
  that
• 1:01:02
  star,
• 1:01:02
  they
• 1:01:03
  have
• 1:01:03
  to
• 1:01:03
  smile.
• 1:01:04
  They
• 1:01:05
  can't
• 1:01:05
  help
• 1:01:05
  but
• 1:01:05
  they
• 1:01:06
  try
• 1:01:06
  and
• 1:01:06
  look
• 1:01:06
  away
• 1:01:06
  and
• 1:01:07
  they
• 1:01:07
  end
• 1:01:07
  up
• 1:01:07
  smiling.
• 1:01:08
  It's
• 1:01:08
  the
• 1:01:08
  funniest
• 1:01:09
  thing.
• 1:01:09
  It
• 1:01:09
  pulls
• 1:01:10
  kids
• 1:01:10
  over
• 1:01:10
  with
• 1:01:11
  their
• 1:01:11
  parents
• 1:01:12
  and
• 1:01:12
  gets
• 1:01:13
  the
• 1:01:13
  conversation
• 1:01:13
  started.
• 1:01:14
  So
• 1:01:14
  it's
• 1:01:14
  a
• 1:01:14
  great
• 1:01:15
  way
• 1:01:16
  to
• 1:01:16
  engage
• 1:01:17
  because
• 1:01:18
  people
• 1:01:18
  are
• 1:01:19
  busy,
• 1:01:19
  they're
• 1:01:20
  on.
• 1:01:20
  They
• 1:01:20
  have
• 1:01:20
  a
• 1:01:20
  one
• 1:01:21
  track
• 1:01:21
  mind,
• 1:01:21
  they
• 1:01:21
  have
• 1:01:21
  a
• 1:01:21
  list.
• 1:01:22
  They've
• 1:01:22
  got
• 1:01:22
  to
• 1:01:23
  get
• 1:01:23
  this
• 1:01:23
  done
• 1:01:23
  today
• 1:01:24
  because
• 1:01:24
  we
• 1:01:24
  usually
• 1:01:24
  go
• 1:01:24
  on
• 1:01:25
  a
• 1:01:25
  Saturday.
• 1:01:26
  And
• 1:01:26
  so
• 1:01:27
  I
• 1:01:27
  say
• 1:01:27
  hi
• 1:01:27
  to
• 1:01:28
  everyone
• 1:01:28
  that
• 1:01:28
  walks
• 1:01:29
  past.
• 1:01:29
  I
• 1:01:30
  say,
• 1:01:30
  oh,
• 1:01:30
  would
• 1:01:30
  you
• 1:01:30
  want
• 1:01:31
  to
• 1:01:31
  hear
• 1:01:31
  about
• 1:01:31
  my
• 1:01:31
  book?
• 1:01:32
  I've
• 1:01:33
  learned
• 1:01:34
  we've
• 1:01:34
  been
• 1:01:35
  doing
• 1:01:35
  this.
• 1:01:35
  I
• 1:01:35
  started
• 1:01:35
  in
• 1:01:36
  April,
• 1:01:36
  the
• 1:01:37
  Indigo
• 1:01:38
  chapters.
• 1:01:40
  And
• 1:01:41
  perfect
• 1:01:41
  it
• 1:01:41
  as
• 1:01:42
  you
• 1:01:42
  go
• 1:01:42
  along.
• 1:01:42
  At
• 1:01:43
  first
• 1:01:43
  you're
• 1:01:43
  shy,
• 1:01:44
  you're
• 1:01:44
  not
• 1:01:44
  sure
• 1:01:44
  what
• 1:01:44
  you're
• 1:01:45
  doing,
• 1:01:45
  you're
• 1:01:46
  not
• 1:01:46
  sure
• 1:01:47
  if
• 1:01:47
  people
• 1:01:47
  really
• 1:01:47
  want
• 1:01:48
  to
• 1:01:48
  hear
• 1:01:48
  what
• 1:01:48
  you're
• 1:01:48
  saying.
• 1:01:49
  And
• 1:01:49
  then
• 1:01:49
  you
• 1:01:49
  realize
• 1:01:50
  people
• 1:01:51
  are
• 1:01:51
  interested.
• 1:01:52
  They
• 1:01:53
  want
• 1:01:53
  to
• 1:01:53
  hear
• 1:01:53
  what
• 1:01:53
  you
• 1:01:53
  have
• 1:01:54
  to
• 1:01:54
  say.
• 1:01:54
  Very
• 1:01:54
  soon
• 1:01:55
  after
• 1:01:55
  somebody
• 1:01:56
  comes
• 1:01:56
  up
• 1:01:56
  to
• 1:01:56
  your
• 1:01:56
  table
• 1:01:57
  if
• 1:01:57
  they
• 1:01:57
  really
• 1:01:58
  don't
• 1:01:59
  want
• 1:01:59
  to
• 1:01:59
  hear
• 1:01:59
  anymore
• 1:02:00
  and
• 1:02:00
  you
• 1:02:00
  just
• 1:02:00
  say,
• 1:02:00
  okay,
• 1:02:01
  let's
• 1:02:01
  move
• 1:02:02
  on.
• 1:02:02
  That
• 1:02:03
  one
• 1:02:03
  of
• 1:02:03
  these
• 1:02:03
  stores
• 1:02:04
  that
• 1:02:04
  we
• 1:02:04
  sell
• 1:02:04
  our
• 1:02:05
  Book
• 1:02:05
  in
• 1:02:06
  actually
• 1:02:06
  recommended
• 1:02:07
  that
• 1:02:07
  we
• 1:02:07
  develop
• 1:02:08
  a
• 1:02:08
  plushie.
• 1:02:10
  I
• 1:02:10
  know
• 1:02:10
  that
• 1:02:10
  our
• 1:02:11
  listing
• 1:02:11
  audience
• 1:02:12
  see
• 1:02:12
  it,
• 1:02:12
  but
• 1:02:13
  our
• 1:02:13
  main
• 1:02:13
  character
• 1:02:14
  because
• 1:02:14
  the
• 1:02:14
  name
• 1:02:14
  of
• 1:02:14
  our
• 1:02:14
  book
• 1:02:15
  is
• 1:02:15
  the
• 1:02:16
  Adventures
• 1:02:16
  of
• 1:02:16
  Caboose
• 1:02:17
  the
• 1:02:17
  Rocky
• 1:02:18
  Mountain
• 1:02:18
  Bear.
• 1:02:19
  And
• 1:02:20
  then
• 1:02:20
  we
• 1:02:20
  developed
• 1:02:20
  a
• 1:02:21
  plushie
• 1:02:21
  to
• 1:02:22
  go
• 1:02:22
  with
• 1:02:22
  the
• 1:02:22
  book.
• 1:02:23
  So
• 1:02:23
  yeah,
• 1:02:23
  the
• 1:02:24
  store
• 1:02:24
  owner
• 1:02:24
  said,
• 1:02:25
  Rick,
• 1:02:25

  should
• 1:02:25
  have
• 1:02:25
  a
• 1:02:26
  plushie
• 1:02:27
  because
• 1:02:27
  it
• 1:02:28
  certainly
• 1:02:28
  can
• 1:02:28
  help
• 1:02:29
  sell
• 1:02:30
  more
• 1:02:30
  books.
• 1:02:30
  So
• 1:02:31
  we've
• 1:02:32
  given
• 1:02:32
  it
• 1:02:32
  a
• 1:02:32

  The

  other
• 1:02:34
  thing
• 1:02:35
  which
• 1:02:35
  is
• 1:02:35
  I
• 1:02:36
  hired
• 1:02:36
  a
• 1:02:37
  teacher
• 1:02:39
  to
• 1:02:39
  give
• 1:02:39

• 1:02:40
  Like
• 1:02:40
  a
• 1:02:40
  lesson
• 1:02:41
  plan.
• 1:02:41
  Yes.
• 1:02:42
  Because
• 1:02:43
  I
• 1:02:43
  wanted
• 1:02:43
  just
• 1:02:44
  I've
• 1:02:44
  gone
• 1:02:44
  to
• 1:02:44
  a
• 1:02:44
  couple
• 1:02:45
  of
• 1:02:45
  places
• 1:02:45
  and
• 1:02:45
  read
• 1:02:46
  my
• 1:02:46
  book
• 1:02:47
  that
• 1:02:47
  I
• 1:02:47
  wanted
• 1:02:48
  to
• 1:02:48
  engage
• 1:02:48
  with
• 1:02:49
  the
• 1:02:49
  kids
• 1:02:49
  and
• 1:02:49
  know
• 1:02:49
  what
• 1:02:50
  do
• 1:02:50
  I
• 1:02:50
  ask
• 1:02:50
  them,
• 1:02:50
  what
• 1:02:51
  do
• 1:02:51
  I
• 1:02:51
  tell
• 1:02:51
  them?
• 1:02:51
  What
• 1:02:51
  do
• 1:02:52
  I
• 1:02:52
  say
• 1:02:52
  before
• 1:02:53
  I
• 1:02:53
  just
• 1:02:53
  read
• 1:02:53
  my
• 1:02:53
  book.
• 1:02:54
  And
• 1:02:54
  so
• 1:02:54
  she
• 1:02:54
  developed
• 1:02:55
  a
• 1:02:55
  lesson
• 1:02:55
  plan
• 1:02:55
  and
• 1:02:55
  I
• 1:02:56
  said
• 1:02:56
  to
• 1:02:56
  her
• 1:02:57
  I
• 1:02:57
  would
• 1:02:57
  like
• 1:02:58
  three
• 1:02:58
  crafts
• 1:02:58
  that
• 1:02:59
  are
• 1:02:59
  easy
• 1:02:59
  to
• 1:02:59
  do
• 1:02:59
  that
• 1:02:59
  are
• 1:03:00
  dog
• 1:03:00
  related.
• 1:03:01
  I
• 1:03:01
  just
• 1:03:01
  told
• 1:03:01
  her
• 1:03:02
  what
• 1:03:02
  I
• 1:03:02
  wanted
• 1:03:02
  and
• 1:03:02
  I
• 1:03:03
  wanted
• 1:03:03
  something
• 1:03:04
  I
• 1:03:04
  could
• 1:03:05
  print
• 1:03:05
  off
• 1:03:05
  and
• 1:03:05
  share
• 1:03:06
  like
• 1:03:06
  a
• 1:03:07
  maze
• 1:03:07
  or
• 1:03:07
  something.
• 1:03:08
  So
• 1:03:08
  she
• 1:03:08
  developed
• 1:03:09
  quite
• 1:03:09
  a
• 1:03:09
  nice
• 1:03:10
  maze
• 1:03:10
  in
• 1:03:10
  three
• 1:03:11
  different
• 1:03:11
  age
• 1:03:11
  groups.
• 1:03:12
  So
• 1:03:12
  we
• 1:03:12
  just
• 1:03:13
  print
• 1:03:13
  off
• 1:03:13
  20

• 1:03:14

  those
• 1:03:14
  and
• 1:03:14
  they
• 1:03:15
  go
• 1:03:15
  like
• 1:03:15
  hotcakes.
• 1:03:16
  We
• 1:03:16

  and
• 1:03:22
  the
• 1:03:22

  them.
• 1:03:23
  I
• 1:03:23
  got
• 1:03:23
  three
• 1:03:24
  age
• 1:03:24
  groups.
• 1:03:24
  I

  have
• 1:03:24

• 1:03:31
  first.
• 1:03:31
  I'm
• 1:03:32
  like,
• 1:03:32
  do
• 1:03:32
  you
• 1:03:32
  guys
• 1:03:32
  like
• 1:03:32
  doing
• 1:03:32
  mazes?
• 1:03:33
  Because
• 1:03:33
  I
• 1:03:34
  always
• 1:03:34
  love
• 1:03:34
  doing
• 1:03:35
  them.
• 1:03:35
  They
• 1:03:35
  were
• 1:03:35
  my
• 1:03:35
  favorite
• 1:03:36
  things.
• 1:03:36
  So
• 1:03:36
  they
• 1:03:36
  go
• 1:03:37
  like
• 1:03:37
  hotcakes
• 1:03:37
  and
• 1:03:37
  you
• 1:03:38
  take
• 1:03:38
  them
• 1:03:38
  to
• 1:03:38
  every
• 1:03:38
  show.
• 1:03:39
  We
• 1:03:40
  were
• 1:03:40
  doing
• 1:03:40
  just
• 1:03:40
  stickers.
• 1:03:41
  Judy
• 1:03:42
  had
• 1:03:42
  said
• 1:03:42
  age
• 1:03:42
  group.
• 1:03:43
  So
• 1:03:44
  explain
• 1:03:45
  to
• 1:03:45
  us
• 1:03:45
  a
• 1:03:45
  little
• 1:03:45
  bit
• 1:03:45
  more
• 1:03:46
  in
• 1:03:46
  depth.
• 1:03:47
  Oh.
• 1:03:47
  So
• 1:03:47
  one
• 1:03:48
  maze
• 1:03:48
  is
• 1:03:48
  quite
• 1:03:49
  simple
• 1:03:49
  and
• 1:03:49
  it's
• 1:03:49
  for
• 1:03:50
  Pre
• 1:03:51
  K
• 1:03:51
  to
• 1:03:52
  1.
• 1:03:53
  And
• 1:03:53
  then
• 1:03:53
  we
• 1:03:54
  have
• 1:03:54
  that
• 1:03:54
  on
• 1:03:54
  the
• 1:03:54
  top
• 1:03:55
  corner.
• 1:03:55
  The
• 1:03:55
  second
• 1:03:56
  one
• 1:03:56
  is
• 1:03:56
  grades
• 1:03:57
  two
• 1:03:57
  to
• 1:03:57
  three.
• 1:03:58
  The
• 1:03:58
  third
• 1:03:58
  one
• 1:03:59
  is
• 1:03:59
  four
• 1:04:00
  to
• 1:04:00
  five.
• 1:04:01
  So
• 1:04:01
  parents
• 1:04:02
  will
• 1:04:02
  know
• 1:04:02
  which
• 1:04:03
  one
• 1:04:03
  to
• 1:04:03
  choose
• 1:04:03
  or
• 1:04:04
  the

  are
• 1:04:04

• 1:04:05
  can

• 1:04:06
  doing
• 1:04:06
  that
• 1:04:07
  as

  age
• 1:04:09
  appropriate
• 1:04:09
  to
• 1:04:09
  them.
• 1:04:10
  So
• 1:04:10

• 1:04:10
  that's
• 1:04:11
  a
• 1:04:11
  great

  you

  more
• 1:05:06
  sales
• 1:05:07
  traction?
• 1:05:08
  Yes,

  I

  think

  it
• 1:05:09
  has.
• 1:05:10
  I

  quite
• 1:05:14
  some
• 1:05:14
  time.
• 1:05:15
  But
• 1:05:15
  what
• 1:05:15
  I
• 1:05:15
  do
• 1:05:15
  is
• 1:05:16
  whenever
• 1:05:18
  somebody
• 1:05:18
  I
• 1:05:18
  know
• 1:05:18
  buys

• 1:05:21
  someone
• 1:05:21
  buys
• 1:05:21
  it,
• 1:05:23
  I
• 1:05:23
  say
• 1:05:23
  if
• 1:05:23
  you
• 1:05:23
  enjoy
• 1:05:24
  the
• 1:05:24
  book,
• 1:05:24
  would
• 1:05:24
  you
• 1:05:24
  leave
• 1:05:24
  a
• 1:05:25
  review
• 1:05:25
  or
• 1:05:25
  even
• 1:05:25
  if
• 1:05:25
  you
• 1:05:25
  don't
• 1:05:26
  enjoy
• 1:05:26
  it,
• 1:05:26
  would
• 1:05:27
  you
• 1:05:27
  leave
• 1:05:27
  a
• 1:05:27
  review?
• 1:05:28
  Now

  a
• 1:05:28
  lot
• 1:05:28
  of
• 1:05:29
  people
• 1:05:29
  don't

  we'd
• 1:05:30
  have

• 1:05:30
  right?
• 1:05:31
  Absolutely.
• 1:05:32
  Yeah.
• 1:05:33
  But
• 1:05:33
  I

  there.

  Maybe

  Plus

  Both
• 1:07:16
  of

• 1:07:18
  exceptional.

  They

  were
• 1:07:20
  five
• 1:07:20
  star
• 1:07:20
  but
• 1:07:21
  very
• 1:07:21
  in
• 1:07:22
  depth
• 1:07:22
  because

  don't
• 1:07:26
  say
• 1:07:26
  very
• 1:07:26
  much.
• 1:07:27
  It
• 1:07:27
  doesn't
• 1:07:27
  give
• 1:07:28
  somebody
• 1:07:28
  looking
• 1:07:29
  up
• 1:07:29
  the
• 1:07:29
  book
• 1:07:29
  because
• 1:07:30

  look

  writing

  in
• 1:08:02
  your
• 1:08:02
  life
• 1:08:02
  now.
• 1:08:03
  It's
• 1:08:03
  a
• 1:08:04
  passion.
• 1:08:05
  I'm
• 1:08:05
  enjoying
• 1:08:05
  it
• 1:08:06
  so
• 1:08:06
  much.
• 1:08:07
  I
• 1:08:07
  worked
• 1:08:07
  with
• 1:08:08
  patients
• 1:08:08
  for
• 1:08:08
  years
• 1:08:08
  and
• 1:08:09
  talked
• 1:08:09
  to
• 1:08:09
  them
• 1:08:09
  in
• 1:08:09
  the
• 1:08:10
  room
• 1:08:10
  one
• 1:08:10
  on
• 1:08:10
  one
• 1:08:10
  and
• 1:08:11
  talked
• 1:08:11
  to
• 1:08:11
  doctors
• 1:08:11
  one
• 1:08:12
  on
• 1:08:12
  one
• 1:08:12
  giving
• 1:08:12
  reports.
• 1:08:13
  But
• 1:08:13
  I
• 1:08:14
  was
• 1:08:14
  never
• 1:08:15
  telling
• 1:08:15
  them
• 1:08:16
  about
• 1:08:16
  something
• 1:08:16
  I
• 1:08:16
  was
• 1:08:17
  passionate
• 1:08:17
  about.
• 1:08:17
  I
• 1:08:18
  was
• 1:08:18
  telling
• 1:08:18
  them
• 1:08:18
  medical
• 1:08:19
  information
• 1:08:20
  and
• 1:08:20
  now
• 1:08:20
  I'm
• 1:08:21
  passionate
• 1:08:22
  because
• 1:08:22
  people
• 1:08:23
  have
• 1:08:23
  shown
• 1:08:23
  an
• 1:08:24
  interest
• 1:08:24
  and
• 1:08:24
  there's
• 1:08:25
  so
• 1:08:25
  many
• 1:08:25
  rescue
• 1:08:26
  dogs
• 1:08:26
  and
• 1:08:26
  things.
• 1:08:27
  It
• 1:08:27
  would
• 1:08:27
  be
• 1:08:27
  nice
• 1:08:27
  if
• 1:08:27
  people
• 1:08:28
  read
• 1:08:29
  the
• 1:08:29
  book
• 1:08:29
  and
• 1:08:29
  because
• 1:08:29
  of
• 1:08:30
  that
• 1:08:30
  they
• 1:08:30
  had
• 1:08:31
  a
• 1:08:31
  conversation
• 1:08:31
  with
• 1:08:32
  their
• 1:08:33
  families
• 1:08:33
  and
• 1:08:33
  they
• 1:08:33
  were
• 1:08:34
  talking
• 1:08:34
  about
• 1:08:34
  getting
• 1:08:34
  a
• 1:08:34
  dog.
• 1:08:35
  Hey,
• 1:08:36
  I
• 1:08:36
  read
• 1:08:36
  this
• 1:08:36
  book.
• 1:08:36
  Maybe
• 1:08:37
  we
• 1:08:37
  could
• 1:08:37
  try
• 1:08:37
  rescuing
• 1:08:38
  a
• 1:08:38
  dog.
• 1:08:38
  But
• 1:08:38
  I
• 1:08:39
  don't
• 1:08:39
  see
• 1:08:39
  it
• 1:08:39
  as
• 1:08:39
  a
• 1:08:40
  role.
• 1:08:40
  It's
• 1:08:40
  a
• 1:08:41
  passion
• 1:08:41
  I'm
• 1:08:41
  sharing
• 1:08:42
  and
• 1:08:42
  advice
• 1:08:43
  for
• 1:08:43
  aspiring
• 1:08:45
  authors.
• 1:08:46
  We
• 1:08:46
  get
• 1:08:46
  a
• 1:08:47
  lot
• 1:08:47
  of
• 1:08:47
  people
• 1:08:47
  listening
• 1:08:48
  in
• 1:08:48
  wanting
• 1:08:49
  to
• 1:08:49
  become
• 1:08:50
  a
• 1:08:50
  children's
• 1:08:50
  book
• 1:08:50
  author,
• 1:08:51
  but
• 1:08:51
  they
• 1:08:51
  just
• 1:08:51
  don't
• 1:08:52
  know
• 1:08:52
  where
• 1:08:52
  to
• 1:08:52
  start.
• 1:08:53
  So
• 1:08:54
  what
• 1:08:54
  advice
• 1:08:54
  would
• 1:08:55
  you
• 1:08:55
  give
• 1:08:55
  to
• 1:08:55
  aspiring
• 1:08:56
  children's
• 1:08:56
  book
• 1:08:57
  authors?
• 1:08:58
  I
• 1:08:58
  would
• 1:08:59
  say
• 1:08:59
  it's
• 1:08:59
  never
• 1:09:00
  too
• 1:09:00
  late
• 1:09:00
  to
• 1:09:01
  write
• 1:09:01
  a
• 1:09:01
  book.
• 1:09:01
  I'm
• 1:09:02
  66.
• 1:09:02
  I
• 1:09:02
  was
• 1:09:03
  65
• 1:09:03
  when
• 1:09:04
  my
• 1:09:04
  book
• 1:09:04
  launched,
• 1:09:05
  which
• 1:09:05
  is
• 1:09:07
  retirement.
• 1:09:08
  But
• 1:09:09
  it
• 1:09:09
  can
• 1:09:10
  give
• 1:09:10
  you
• 1:09:10
  a
• 1:09:10
  lot
• 1:09:10
  of
• 1:09:11
  fun
• 1:09:11
  and
• 1:09:12
  inspiration
• 1:09:13
  in
• 1:09:13
  your
• 1:09:13
  life,
• 1:09:13
  talking
• 1:09:14
  to
• 1:09:14
  people
• 1:09:14
  and
• 1:09:14
  sharing
• 1:09:15
  it
• 1:09:15
  with
• 1:09:15
  the
• 1:09:15
  world.
• 1:09:16
  I
• 1:09:16
  think
• 1:09:16
  if
• 1:09:16
  you
• 1:09:16
  have
• 1:09:16
  a
• 1:09:16
  story,
• 1:09:17
  you
• 1:09:17
  should
• 1:09:17
  tell
• 1:09:17
  it
• 1:09:18
  because
• 1:09:19
  somebody
• 1:09:19
  will
• 1:09:20
  enjoy
• 1:09:20
  it.
• 1:09:21
  Absolutely.
• 1:09:21
  I
• 1:09:22
  couldn't
• 1:09:22
  agree
• 1:09:22
  with
• 1:09:22
  you
• 1:09:22
  more.
• 1:09:23
  An
• 1:09:23
  encouragement
• 1:09:24
  for
• 1:09:24
  readers.
• 1:09:25
  So
• 1:09:25
  why
• 1:09:26
  should
• 1:09:26
  readers
• 1:09:27
  purchase
• 1:09:27
  your
• 1:09:28
  book.
• 1:09:29
  If
• 1:09:29
  they
• 1:09:29
  want
• 1:09:29
  to
• 1:09:30
  read
• 1:09:30
  a
• 1:09:32
  an
• 1:09:32
  emotional
• 1:09:32
  journey
• 1:09:33
  about
• 1:09:33
  a
• 1:09:33
  rescue
• 1:09:34
  dog
• 1:09:35
  from
• 1:09:35
  her
• 1:09:35
  point
• 1:09:35
  of
• 1:09:36
  view?
• 1:09:37
  I
• 1:09:37
  think
• 1:09:37
  it
• 1:09:37
  would
• 1:09:37
  be
• 1:09:38
  a
• 1:09:38
  great
• 1:09:38
  learning
• 1:09:39
  tool
• 1:09:39
  for
• 1:09:39
  parents
• 1:09:40
  to
• 1:09:40
  have
• 1:09:40
  their
• 1:09:40
  kids
• 1:09:40
  read
• 1:09:41
  this
• 1:09:41
  story
• 1:09:42
  to
• 1:09:42
  learn
• 1:09:43
  that
• 1:09:44
  even
• 1:09:44
  though
• 1:09:45
  times
• 1:09:46
  could
• 1:09:46
  be
• 1:09:46
  dark,
• 1:09:47
  they
• 1:09:47
  could
• 1:09:47
  be
• 1:09:48
  something
• 1:09:49
  wonderful,
• 1:09:49
  could
• 1:09:50
  be
• 1:09:50
  just
• 1:09:50
  around
• 1:09:50
  the
• 1:09:50
  corner
• 1:09:51
  like
• 1:09:51
  with
• 1:09:51
  Penny.
• 1:09:52
  And
• 1:09:52
  I
• 1:09:52
  love
• 1:09:53
  how
• 1:09:53
  you
• 1:09:53
  have
• 1:09:54
  used
• 1:09:54
  that
• 1:09:54
  technique
• 1:09:55
  to
• 1:09:55
  tell
• 1:09:55
  the
• 1:09:55
  story
• 1:09:56
  from
• 1:09:56
  Penny's
• 1:09:57
  eyes
• 1:09:58
  as
• 1:09:58
  a
• 1:09:58
  rescue
• 1:09:59
  dog.
• 1:09:59
  It's
• 1:10:00
  nice
• 1:10:00
  touch
• 1:10:00
  and
• 1:10:01
  I
• 1:10:01
  hope
• 1:10:01
  other
• 1:10:02
  people
