In my latest Old Dog Dumps post, I celebrate publication day for my debut novel Milksop.
In “Look Out! Milksop Released Today into the Wilds of Writing,” I share what inspired the novel and what my hopes are for my little paper boat—along with how readers can help keep it afloat.
Here’s a taste: “It began with a memory from 50 years ago. That memory became an image: a teenage boy from the city sits on a tractor in an unfamiliar farmyard. He can’t get the tractor started, even though the farmer showed this strange boy how to do it the night before. On a second tractor, the farmer is heading down the laneway. He doesn’t look back.”
