This entry was a manuscript that won the #FallWritingFrenzy contest in 2022! I decided to take it down, add even more Vampire Puppy fun, and began querying it.
This piece went on to help me get my literary agent, was on submission for 14 months, and FINALLY sold to Sourcebooks Jabberwocky back in September of 2025! Hooray! Thank you, God!

This is cute! My son has 8 pitbull puppies, and they chew everything and anything. The ending…am I a werewolf? Awesome!
