Dear Claire,
I think there must be plenty of great story ideas that come from pet clinics. I recently took my dog Ivy for her booster shots, and let me tell you. She couldn’t wait for that chapter to be over. She spent the whole time cowering behind me, her stubby tail wedged between her legs. And what was really heartbreaking was that the vet was being so kind, getting down on the floor and cooing to Ivy, even offering really tasty treats.
Ivy wanted none of it. No gold sticker for Ivy. I’m certain I’ll use this scene in a future novel.
Stay well and happy reading,
Jessica
