A Writer's Guide to Veterinary Hospitals

di Dorothy Callahan (Autore)

Somerwynd Services, 2021

The veterinary field has been gaining popularity, which means more authors and screenwriters want to have veterinarian characters in their stories. However, not all writers understand the ins and outs of this unique field, and a poor representation of this will cause you to lose credibility with your readers or viewers. While human medicine has known aspects that most of us can understand, veterinary medicine encompasses all of that, plus the added aspect of unpredictable animals… and their owners! In this lighthearted guide, the reader experiences firsthand the ups, downs and sideways events that happen daily if not weekly in this field. The author draws on her lifetime career in veterinary medicine to help writers capture the true essence of working in this field, whether their setting is a privately-owned hospital, part of a corporation, or even located inside an animal shelter. Each of these has their own unique culture, goal, and mindset, which will help writers solidify the day-to-day life of their characters. Delving feet first into this world will help writers create stronger, truer scenes that even the staunchest veterinary employee will relate to. Readers interested in behind-the-scenes will gain a deeper understanding of what happens from the time of the first phone call to the appointment end, and writers looking for ways to immerse their readers in the world of veterinary medicine will have step-by-step scenes, terminology, and explanations to help them better portray their story. From setting to seizures, conflicts to COVID, this guide has it all!
