Dog Quixote
Manuscript complete.
Luca, a Maremma sheepdog, guards a few acres in Bucks County as if they were a small medieval realm. Grocery bags become Wind-Borne Spirits, butterflies are Sky-Flowers, squirrels are Tree-Rats, deer are Horned Dragons, and the swimming pool is the Blue Lake. The humor gives way to something quieter: instinct, guardianship, and the difficulty of seeing an animal on his own terms.
