Will Shetterly, author of the brilliant novel Dogland, sez, "Dog Land was my family's tourist attraction in Florida in the early '60s. It inspired Dogland, my novel that Cory's said nice things about. I get the occasional question about the historical Dog Land from readers and roadsiders, so I made a page with my favorite photos."

(Thanks, Will!)
My novel, Dogland, is about a family that moves to Florida in 1959 to start a tourist attraction. It's based on a place that I knew well; my family moved to Florida in 1959 to start a tourist attraction called Dog Land. (I wish I could say I changed the spelling to make the fictional Dogland different from the real Dog Land. But the truth is I forgot how my family spelled it.) At Dog Land's height, we had over 100 breeds on display, plus a three-legged mutt named Pirate.
Update: Will sez, "Boing Boing traffic blew out the data transfer rate for my Geocities freebie pages. So I moved the text and pics here. Not quite as pretty, but it should be much more dependable. "
I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.
