- <p> As he worked on his new book Tales from Margaritaville,
- singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett would "read the stories to my
- dogs." Cheeseburger, a golden retriever, and Spring, a springer
- spaniel, woofed their approval. He hoped that "the folks who
- bought my records are readers as well." They are. Instead of
- wastin' away, the collection of yarns about living in the slow
- lane has jumped high on the best-seller lists, good news for the
- Key West, Fla., troubadour whose last big hit tune was ten years
- ago. Mellow fellow Buffett, 42, is now putting together songs
- for a Broadway musical, and has just finished his second
- children's book with daughter Savannah Jane, 10. Let the critics
- bark.
