Run cat, run! “The cat walked through the world, / with its whiskers, ears, and paws … / and the fish saw A CAT, / and the mouse saw A CAT, / and the bee saw A CAT.” Did they see big, small, friendly, scary, nice, or not? All kinds of critters saw that regal cat, but what did each one of them really see? Cat’s eyes grew wide at the sight of that fox. Fox’s eyes narrowed at the sight of a cat. The cat began to run through the tall golden grassy fields when a fox spied him. The dog most certainly didn't like the look of that skinny, slinking cat, not even a little bit. The boy loved the sight of that cat, but the dog … not so much so. and the child saw A CAT.” The cat’s eyes grew wide as the boy leaned down to stroke the back of the his beautiful striped back. Just what would he see? What would they see in that cat? “The cat walked through the world, / with its whiskers, ears, and paws ….

I now have a good-sized backlist in ebooks and print, both free and professionally published. I was delighted and encouraged by the reception Mac and Tony received. I have a weakness for closeted cops with honest hearts, and teachers who speak their minds, and I had fun writing four novels and three freebie short stories in that series. My first professionally published book, Life Lessons, came out from MLR Press in May 2011. My husband finally convinced me that after all the years of writing for fun, I really should submit something, somewhere. I’ve been writing far longer than I care to admit (*whispers – fifty years*), mostly for my own entertainment, usually M/M romance (with added mystery, fantasy, historical, SciFi…) I also have a few Young Adult stories (some released under the pen name Kira Harp.) Minnesota’s a kind, quiet (if sometimes chilly) place and it’s home. I was born in Montreal but have lived for 30 years in Minnesota, where the two seasons are Snow-removal and Road-repair, where the mosquito is the state bird, and where winter can be breathtakingly beautiful. “Kaje” is pronounced just like “cage” – it’s an old nickname, and my pronouns are she/her/hers. His story will make you laugh and cry, and will show you a love that never ends, and what it means to be truly human.”-Fannie FlaggĪn emotionally powerful novel about three people who each lose the one they love most, only to find second chances where they least expect them “I dare you to read this novel and not fall in love with Arthur Truluv.

There he meets and befriends Maddie, a teenaged social outcast with no mother and a distant father. “Octogenarian Arthur Moses schedules his life around his daily lunch at the gravesite of his departed wife. Nancy Simpson-Brice, The Book Vault, Oskaloosa, IA Winter 2018 Reading Group Indie Next List Complete with cemeteries, warm cranberry-nut bars, a bully boyfriend, loneliness, and a baseball bat, Arthur Truluv is the right book at the right time. A warm story about elderly neighbors Arthur and Lucille and a teenage outsider, Maddy, this book demonstrates that all love and kindness have not disappeared, that there are pockets of caring living in certain people. “If ever there were a perfect ointment to soothe the increasing incivility of today's world, Elizabeth Berg's The Story of Arthur Truluv could provide that salve. 5/29/2023 0 Comments Annihilation vandermeerThey cannot recall the moment they crossed into Area X, and they have no clear idea how they will leave. Their training and instructions are sometimes vague, sometimes misleading. Their equipment is either nonsensical, or inadequate, or antiquated. On the first page we are told that the women's enterprise is doomed. An unfurling of promiscuous alien biology. In Annihilation, the first part of an imaginatively marketed and beautifully produced trilogy (the other parts are out in May and September), the novelist and publishing entrepreneur Jeff VanderMeer sets out to create a lasting monument to the uncanny by revisiting – without embellishment, and with a pitiless focus on physical and psychological detail – some very old ground. "Names belonged to where we had come from, not to who we were while embedded in Area X." Sensitive readers will already have begun to feel their fingers prised loose from the edge of the swimming pool, when it turns out these explorers are unable to divulge their names. Into this place come the biologist and her colleagues: a surveyor, a linguist, and a psychologist. Area X is an abandoned and apparently unspoilt stretch of US coastline, held under strict quarantine by a mysterious government agency called the Southern Reach. 5/29/2023 0 Comments Hellsing manga vol 1Integra demands The Major to explain what happened and he reveals that "as long as Schrödinger recognizes himself, he's everywhere and nowhere."
