Hi! I'm Lydia Filzen. I write my dog-related fiction under that name, and my historical fiction as Lydia Hawke.I have six Collies, show them in breed, obedience and agility. We've started herding now that we've found a trainer here in Northeast Florida. This isn't exactly sheep country, you know.I've worked with dogs all my life, and especially love Collies. Lassie and the Albert Payson Terhune stories got me hooked, but the dogs themselves reeled me in!
I've written a couple of doggy short stories, Getting It! and Angus the Vampire Slayer, plus a romantic suspense set in the world of agility trials, Silent Witness.
My Civil War novel, Firetrail, has been made into a movie, which will premiere August 25 at Augusta, Georgia. Check my website, www.lydiafilzen.us for more about me, my dogs, and my writings.

Welcome!
Welcome to a new blog with a decidedly canine view!
Why? This blog is the perfect vehicle since dogs seem to show up in most of my work, be it fiction, nonfiction, books, or my miniature projects.
My young adult mystery, Searching for a Starry Night, to be published in Spring '08 by Quake, http://www.quakeme.com/, a division of Echelon Press, LLC, features a lovable, but mischievous Dachshund named Petey.
I and my fellow authors, Lee Barwood (http://www.leebarwood.com/) and Lydia Filzen (http://www.lydiafilzen.us) , will be posting some fun tidbits, dog news, book-related items, and more.
We'll also be featuring guest bloggers who include dogs in their work. A special bonus: we'll be running new and reprinted short stories featuring canine characters, so please check back often!
We hope you'll enjoy our view of dogdom. We look forward to your visit and would love to hear from you!
