Ever since I started writing here about Charles P. "Chuck" Eisenmann and his dogs who played The Littlest Hobo on TV and in movies, I have received comments and emails from some very cool people who shared their memories of Chuck and his dogs with me. I can't even tell you how touching this has been, to receive this series of thank-you notes from complete strangers. Many times I've been moved to actual tears. Because of all of you, I have decided to go ahead with this project.
I will be attempting to write a non-fiction book about Chuck and his dogs. I say "attempting" because I've never written non-fiction before. This project is somewhat daunting to me, but I think it needs to be tried. I don't want Chuck and his dogs to fade into obscurity, foot-noted on a few websites, subject of stories and rumors because no one ever wrote down how things happened and that's it. Chuck's books are out of print. There are dang few resources on the web--if there were more, y'all wouldn't have found me and Kyrie, here. :)
I've created a new blog and have a new email specifically for communicating about this project, because I'll need some help. You can read more about it here, on the blog: The Littlest Hobo Book Project - littlehoboblog.blogspot.com
The whole story of what and why is there--you can also look there for updates on the project in the future. Thanks so much, everyone, for reading. I hope to see you on the other side of the book!
