Do I have a bug on my nose?
That’s kinda gross.
I like bugs!
I like woodpeckers. They’re deeelcieeeeous.
I’m delicious too.
I’m the bowling ball on the stretchy stuff of the universe!
Entire train of kitty WTF on the bowling ball thing!

The cats go round and round and round…
Some of them go rounder than others…
Some of them just roll back and forth.
Others only roll their eyes.
While others roll themselves into a wee little ball.
Did I mention the bit about rolling their eyes.
And some times they roll-play dogs…

Sometimes you Feel Like a Duck
Saw one of those writer posts that makes me feel an odd duck. My authorial dream has never been the JK Rowling rich and famous package. My goal has always been to simply write the stuff I want to write and make enough money so I don’t have do work that isn’t writing.
Mind you, I wouldn’t say no to the whole NYT bestseller and movies thing it if it came along. It’s just never been a first order goal. More than that, I have friends who are at that level of success and it’s not without it’s downsides.
I’ve never been all that award or critic focused either. My main goal from day one has been to produce fast, fun books that casual readers and fans can love, with a strong secondary goal of not making my peers and more critical readers want to fling the book across the room. Basically, what I am trying to do is produce well written commercial fiction that a broad spectrum of people can have fun reading. I do try to put in layers for those who want to look for them, and I am enormously happy when people who are better prose artists than I am like my work, but really I just want to write stories that people want to read. Everything else is gravy.

Hey, thumb-monkey, this bird tv stuff is pretty cool. I want to eat that one!
Wait, what now?
Ooh, delicious delicious birdies. But I prefer blueberry.
Excuse me?
Oooh, now I’m drooling…
All right, that’s it. Hey, Bob, the cats are getting uppity.
Yeah, well what are you gonna do about it, bird? Birds against cats, that won’t end well.
Not for the cats, anyway…
I didn’t even know they made birds that big…
You know, maybe we should reconsider this whole birds vs. cats thing… Votes?
I vote to remain an indoor cat and leave the birds outside.
Nobody expects the FUZZYGATOR!
With thanks to Neil Gaiman, Michael Levy, Sandy Lindow, Mathew Kuchta, and Mandy Little for the extra fuzzies.

You can never unsee that which has been seen. Sooo, not opening my eyes right now.
I would love to taste the cat…
We are not amused.
You people are soooo sick…
I keep telling the world that, but do they listen?
I’m not sure why I’m here, I was just minding my own business in the shop and wham…
Cat blogging pirate with parrot cat is a visual non sequitur.
