In preparation for my upcoming trip to the Cat Writers’ Conference in White Plains, NY, I wanted to make sure my blog posts were up to date, so I decided to employ the talents of feline siblings, Rolz and Mia, who PROMISED me they had everything under control and would manage the blog for me.

Being the cynical skeptic that I am, I wanted to believe them and kept my paws crossed that they would entertain you this Caturday with a delightful feline tale of fun and fancy. I must admit that I wasn’t all that convinced that they would step up to the plate, so, needless to say I nagged them endlessly until I departed on Thursday for my trip. They basically gave me a steely glare  as I walked out the door, clearly miffed that I did not trust them.

Well… here it is, Saturday, and I woke up with anticipation to see what wonderful story would greet me on my blog…. I guess this picture is worth a thousand words, because it certainly sums up the extent of their help in one quick glance….

Please join this stop of the tour as I guest post on the site “4 The Love of Books” where I share my thoughts on my love of both cats and books. Please click here for details.

Carol and her rescue dog, Lucy

As with many people in my life as of late, I met Carol Upton of Dreams Aloud Promotions through social networking. She has a particular affinity for horses, but clearly has a love for all animals, which is why I was so drawn to her. Throughout the course of writing and publishing The Chronicles of Zee & Zoey, she has helped me in one way or another and was kind enough to provide an endorsement for the back cover of my book. I had asked Carol to do a review for me, but because she does not have a blog, I requested her permission to share her interpretation of the story with you here. It is with great pride that I share her thoughts on The Chronicles of Zee & Zoey – A Journey of the Extraordinarily Ordinary: Read more

What is it about cats… everything about them is just so darn cool and purr-fect! Little Mia is curled up all in a sweet ball inside her leopard decorated cat bed. The casual paw hanging over the top is my favorite part!! I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again… oh, to be a cat, if only for a few minutes!!

We we thrilled with the review we received on this tour stop at Splashes of Joy. It is nice to see that, while The Chronicles of Zee & Zoey is geared towards cat lovers, that is also has a universal appeal. Please click here for the full review.
