Well, it took us a little more time than we expected to get The Human up and running after her surgery but things are getting back to normal now, thank goodness!

She hasn’t been a complete slacker because while she was recuperating she worked on her manuscript for the first book in her cozy mystery series called “Meowntain Murders” The name of book #1 is “Owl Be Seeing You” and my brofur Oliver and I are two of the main characters. There are some humans in the book too but let’s face it, it wouldn’t be nearly as good without us.

And, she’s already started her second book in the series called “Felony at the Furbulous Feline Spa”. There is an interesting connection with the spa that inspired the location of the second book and our own Tribe.

As you may or may not know, the neck of the woods we live in is mountainous and fairly rural. And where you have independent folks you usually have more dog people than cat people but that is (thankfully) changing .  It’s changing so much that we actually have a feline only grooming salon and the Human and Oliver made an appointment there to review it. Oliver is a super shedder. His fur even ends up on the dashboard of the car when he hasn’t been in the car for ages. The Human was delighted to find a place that might help her reduce the copious amounts of fur in our house, the car, the clothing and any guests who are brave enough to enter the “fur palace”.

The experience was great for Oliver and The Human and you can read the review here. And to add to good things that came out of this visit, the review received a Certificate of Excellence from the Cat Writer’s Association this year .

And now, the salon is the inspiration for book #2 in our cozy mystery series. 

There is a short book trailer in the works for book #1 and I’ll share it as soon as it’s ready. In the meantime, here is one of the cover ideas. Let me know what you think.
