about me

My Dogs & Me is complete at 25 000 words and I would be over the moon if Publishers/ agents/ movie directors & producers get in touch with me. You may contact me at sshwita@hotmail.com.

My Dogs & Me is my first serious attempt at reaching out to an older audience and to anyone who is able to read, especially from pre-teens to adults.

I would also like to thank everyone who has backed, commented constructively and given invaluable suggestions on making this piece of work a better read.

A Million Thanks to Bradley Wind for the Wonderful cover.

I have published two series of children's books:

Moral Stories for Juniors
Proverbs Series for Juniors

I have another series in the making for 3 - 8 year olds. What else but about a fluffy dog and her adventures. There are already six books in the series and I plan to add on two more.

More about me:

I've been a struggling writer for a few years now and I dream of a great change if My Dogs & Me is propelled to the Editor's Desk, at least I'd know that Harper Collins or some publishers might have had a chance to look at it. If it is accepted by a publisher, it would definitely turn our lives 180 degrees for the better. : ) Quite literally!

I've added another two chapters of the book and do tell me what you think of it and how I can improve on it.

The greatest pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself ... with him ...


... and not only will he not scold you but he will make a fool of himself too. - Samuel Butler

My Dogs & Me is a heart-warming tale based on a true story about a litter of puppies' never-ending mischief and a mysterious maid next door who is not too keen on having them as neighbours. A dumpy landlord bent on evicting them for reasons known to himself. Soon it appears that the maid and the landlord seem to have a common agenda that more than meets the eye...

My Dogs & Me is complete at 25, 000 words.

"... The white female dog with brown patches was wagging its tail from behind the huge rusty gate. I had the feeling that she was telling me to take her home with me. However tough her life might have been, she was happy to see me and greeted me as though she had missed me. "

"However, even before I could drive away I could hear Aki screaming as though she was being abused. Almost simultaneously, the other puppies would all be popping out of the windows, after having bitten off the window blinds for their great escape from Alcatraz."

Hi Karen, Thanks for the insightful suggestions. I'm already thinking of how to go about the dialogues (and also about my life) but I know it is going to take time. Try I shall till I get it : ) view book

Hi Sue, this is pure ingenuity and a wonderfully marketable idea! I can see it flying of the shelves instantly. Your stories give a new perspective to conventional story-telling, a new take on the old subject-matter with fantastic results : ). I particularly liked Snow White for all the correct ... view book

Hi Sue, Thank you very much for your wonderful comments. Yes, now that you've mentioned, the title really needs a change. Thought of hijacking Marley & Me to the ED ; ), it's not working ; (. Any suggestions would be welcome from you and everyone who reads this. Thanks again, Shweta view book
