Today’s picture is Lucifer. He is seriously in a mood, as if you can’t tell from the expression on his face. The reason he’s in such a disgruntled state is, as usual, George. Who is hiding behind my back in this picture playing with Lucifer’s tail. Lucifer’s consent is definitely begrudging, but it is consent. When I tried to protect his tail he whipped it out and batted George with it – again. And again. For all we humans know, this might be Lucifer’s “I’m having fun” face. But probably not.
And I have books. In fact, I have several books I’ve been waiting for, as well as a few that caught my interest by surprise. I’m also wondering just how badly the traditional publishing industry is imploding. I have books not due out until well into next year. It feels like the publishers are trying to guesstimate when things will be back to normal, but they’re all using differently calibrated prediction apparatus.
Clearly we are living in, among other things, a prime example of why “May you live in interesting times” is considered a curse and definitely not a blessing.

Haha yeah… I don’t think that is his ‘having fun face’ 🤣 You have a great haul of new books – Happy reading! 😃
Did you know that it takes 3 grown up cats to run at least some of the energy off of one irrepressible kitten? George is running all three of them ragged. Lucifer doesn’t seem to like George playing with his tail – but he seems to encourage it anyway!
