Special Delivery!

July 19, 2010 By: Sparkle Cat28 Comments

Look what arrived on my doorstep at the end of the day on Friday!

This makes it official!

Advance copies of my brand new book to send to reviewers! My human says we have to be really particular about who we send them to because even though it looks like a lot, it really isn’t all that many.

I have to say, it looks like an awful lot to me!

I am amazed by the great job my publishers, Adams Media, did with my book. It’s over 200 pages, and the paper is very thick — my human may not be able to send out copies First Class like normal because it weighs almost 13 oz. already, without adding the packaging and press kit! Plus it is full-color all the way through — check it out! (You can also “Look inside” if you go to the Amazon page.)

Look! It's me!

I can’t wait for everybody to read it! It’s full of my cat-only advice columns, much of it never before seen (and all totally different from my first book), and lots and lots of action photos of me to illustrate the problems cats write to me about! The publishers needed so many photos that I had to work overtime! Even though the official release date is August 18, Amazon says it is in stock now! I am ready to start pawtographing!

Yes, I do know I am supposed to pawtograph the inside!

    How exciting! My feline brother (Sweet Pea) is turning 20 (!!!) is in early August and I have been trying to figure out what to get him. This may just be the ticket – along with a new fluffy bed, of course!

    Your pal, Pip
