Synopsis of How to Care for Cheese Dog (Manuscript Available!)
Pitch: When a girl's beloved dog mysteriously turns into cheese, his owner turns to The Cheese Dog Guide for survival tips on Cheese-Dogification—no nibbling, avoid mice, and keep cool! Packed with puns and absurd yet heartfelt humor, How to Care for a Cheese Dog is a hilarious celebration of pet ownership and unconditional love—proving that no matter what form they take, a dog’s love is always the cheesiest kind of unconditional.
One morning, an unsuspecting dog owner wakes up to a startling discovery—her beloved dog has transformed into cheese! But before panic sets in, she turns to the ultimate resource: The Cheese Dog Guide, written by the renowned Dr. Asiago, Master of Cheese.
This hilariously absurd handbook walks new cheese-dog owners through the ins and outs of dairy-based pet care. From identifying their pup’s variety (Cheddar-huahua? Grate Dane? Muttzarella?) to essential rules for keeping their furry fromage friend safe—no nibbling, no excessive sun exposure, and definitely no mouse encounters! The guide provides expert tips on bathing (cheesecloth only, no soap or water), proper feeding (tiny pickles highly encouraged), and socialization (cheese-dog meetups often turn into adorable char-pooch-erie boards).
Through playful humor, puns, and laugh-out-loud scenarios, Cheese Dog reassures readers that even if their pup smells like Parmesan and squeaks like a cheese curd, they’re still the same lovable, tail-wagging best friend. It’s a heartwarming and utterly ridiculous celebration of doggy ownership—proving that no matter what form they take, a dog’s love is always the cheesiest kind of unconditional.

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN BORING AND BLAND- Synopsis (Manuscript available upon Request)
Rue, a fellow town shuffler, lives in a drab village that is settled somewhere between boring and bland. Although she blends in nicely, she has a heart full of curiosity and a yearning for a more colorful lifestyle.
Her imagination goes unnoticed when she receives a letter from a far off place from a friend named Pepper. Pepper claims to live past the uninspiring lands, where color and wonder are abundant. Pepper, via letter, tells her to trust in her spirit to lead the way to help bring color to her life.
Rue's curiosity outweighs her apprehension, and she does as the letter says. Following her spirit, she travels further than she ever has before. Suddenly, she emerges in ‘The Watercolor Woodlands’ and meets Pepper. They concoct a plan to bring powder from the Watercolor Woodlands back to Rue’s village to spread and make her home colorful. They fill their bags with colored dust to make the trek back.
When they arrive back at the village, they waste no time to start sprinkling the pigment powder through the streets. Their excitement turns to disappointment quickly though when they realize the streets are still as bland as ever. Rue's spirit goes quiet and she begins to cry.
To her surprise, her tears activate the powder and the color begins to spread. They begin to flood the town with help from the villagers. They all splash, dance and celebrate that their village is now full of color, and no longer a place between boring and bland.
