What inspired you to write your book?
I have two reasons for writing this book First of all, I love animals — especially pets such as cats and dogs. I wanted to write about them and also raise some money to help dogs in shelters, so the publisher is donating a portion of the book sales to no-kill shelters.
About your Book:
A book of short stories and fables designed specifically for cat lovers. The topics range from mythology to magic and horror stories (for cats) combined with a few essays written by a cat in order to help the rest of us understand their logic and reasoning. The book also includes a creative retelling of the Gingerbread Man from a cat’s perspective. You share so much with your cat, why not read together, also?
Book Genre: Fiction
What formats are your books in
Both eBook and Print
How do you see writing a book in the Pet Genre as different from writing other genres of books?
In this particular case where the stories were written from the pet’s perspective, it’s a bit like writing for children. The writing is less abstract, but it’s also simply written. The passages aren’t too complex, and the stories are fairly short. I set this up as an easy and fun read for people who love animals and wonder what these animals would like to read if they could do so for themselves.
