Sequels and Cliches

I’m working on the sequel to In a Dog’s World… and I really need to just sit down and reread the first one rather than having to stop every few minutes to look up which characters were what breed of dog and lived in what dorm and who was who’s roommate…


Working through the critiques I got on my latest novella — apparently, “like a hot knife through butter” is too cliche. Thus, “a hot knife through blue raspberry jello.” That should be less cliche. Nailed it. Fixed. On to the next thing.
