I wonder why in the US we don't use the expression "black dog"? It seems to be a Brit and Aussie expression.
Anybody here a good writer ready to give it a try?

Dear Mari,
I thought that "black dog" applied exclusively to depression. Hemingway used it to describe his.

Dear Highhatsize,
When you win the contest, will you let us know?
Thanks for the Hemingway info.
I don't remember reading that.
I remember Led Zepplin's song, but they claim that the title came from an actual dog hanging around their recording studio --HA!
