My Author & Pet Pairings

The idea for this post actually came to me while working on our Jules Verne feature awhile ago. I couldn’t help but think that his beard reminded me of a terrier’s chin.

My quirky mind went from there, matching authors with what I thought would be (or would have been) a suitable pet for them – based on appearance alone, of course.

So here you go, some of my author/pet pairings:
