I have a dog and a cat in my cozy series, inspired by who else? My dog and cat. The pet parent in the books can communicate with Dickens & Christie, and trust me, their voices are exactly what my pets are thinking. <br /><br />When my calico looks at me as she stands by her dish, I know she is saying, "For goodness sake! You know good and well you have to center the dab of food in the middle of the bowl. What's your problem?" How I wish I really could "hear" my real-life animals. Don't we all?Kathy Manos Pennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08134844972884945306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-79614395117613477202021-07-29T20:54:31.757-04:002021-07-29T20:54:31.757-04:00Yes, you do, KM--and I've loved those stories!...Yes, you do, KM--and I've loved those stories!
