doodle by andre: ousted from the house(ted)
IMUST GO TO MY ROOM, WITHOUT SUPPER OR FURTHER DELAY. Right now—to my room. Which apparently is no longer in the house, mind you, but in a 12-by-11 shed out in the back yard, a shed that was here when I arrived 25 years ago, did temporary duty as a spare storage space, and then for the last nine years housed Jack the Demon Cat, until he recently got a bigger idea. But now I must go to my room, and write a new book (yes, not my “new” book, but another new book) and apparently I will be doing it somewhere other than in my house, er, his house. Oh, heavens, this is confusing. But here’s the scoop, over on the book blog.

June 9, 2011 at 3:25 pmWelcome, Rachael. Crafty, indeed. I refer to him (lovingly) as Jack the Demon Cat because he is always planning something crafty!
Welcome, Katie. Andre has me and Jack nailed, that’s for sure.
Hope to see you both here soon again, and thanks for saying hello.

June 9, 2011 at 3:26 pmYour post and Andre’s doodle made me laugh out loud today. Having been there myself with a kitty that moved into my life and home without my say so. They sure do make no bones about establishing the status quo, do they? Guess there’s a reason they are called the king of the jungle.
Alas, Jack’s castoffs mean a writing garret (shed) devoted to the craft. May the muse be with you.
