I liked your pictures; it looked like your cat was actually turning the pages. <br /> I also liked how you quoted Hemingway's advice about not listening. I think that it's important for all writers to listen (and watch) to what's going on around them, because they might find the seeds of a story in what they hear.Neurotic Workaholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775298184138766683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-66818079169413702272012-06-06T14:02:10.473-04:002012-06-06T14:02:10.473-04:00Love the kitties!

That bad. <br />But my Shepherd, Zutchka, fulfills the role of cozy companion - er, doofey companion...lol - he's topped 100lbs but still thinks he can 'fit-in-my-chair-with-me'. Ha! Plus, he breathes on me....and he definitely does not have delicious puppy breath anymore. Oy! But he's such a doll. :}Nadja Notarianihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01339595239944177531noreply@blogger.com
