Got to meet Dan Rather at the University of Texas Honors Day Communications Department brunch (thanks to my “scary smart” and adorable daughter who’s kicking major butt in college). So proud! Many of you probably feel the same way as me. The voice and face of Dan Rather on TV always meant that something big […]

Diane KellyHaha! Our terrier mix and shepherd mix are certainly selective, too. They hear "treat" without fail, but "down" or "no!" don't always register. Raggs is such a cute name!
Molly WestonReggie certainly looks happy! My own dog, Raggs, has "selective" hearing--and he's not well trained. But. Our dogs are family and we do love them.

BarbaraI LOVED getaway with Murder. The second book can't be published soon enough. Can you write any faster? ;-)
