I hope it's ok to put this link here. I write short fiction as a hobby and have just been published for the first time. The story is sci-fi and nothing to do with dogs. I hope some of you may enjoy it. http://dailysciencefiction.com/science-fiction/aliens/joy-frances-stephenson/all-the-worlds-a-stage
Thank you! The site will only accept stories of 1500 words max and says that you've got a much better chance of being published if it's under 1000 words. I'll have to write a sequel.
