Voice recognition mistake of the week: “I pray for people…” This is why I review voice recognition recordings right away. If I'd waited I wouldn't have been able to guess that I'd actually said “a grey fluff ball…” That's from my work in progress, Pride and Prejudice at the Cat Café.

Coffee and Crushes at the Cat Café: a Furrever Friends Sweet Romance book 1 has a new cover! What do you think? This series is very popular with a devoted group of fans but hasn't drawn a wide audience. I'm hoping the new cover will appeal to new readers. Also, the series is now available at all major e-book retailers and in print!

The Furrever Friends Sweet Romance series features the workers and customers at a small-town cat café, and the adorable cats and kittens looking for their forever homes. Each book is a complete story with a happy ending for one couple (and maybe more than one rescued cat).

Visit the Furrever Friends Sweet Romance series on Amazon US or Amazon UK or see the series with links to all retailers.

I have a friend with a small plane, so we took advantage of cooler autumn weather for a flight over central New Mexico. Cody from the Accidental Billionaire Cowboys series is a pilot with a plane based on this one.

This is an extremely advanced yogiferret pose. Do not try this at home! Actually, do not try it anywhere, except maybe if you're auditioning for Cirque du Soleil.

Comfortable Reading: Are you a Black Friday/Cyber Monday shopper? Or do you totally avoid shopping that weekend? I'm in the latter category. But last year I did a series of blog posts on "Writer and Reader Comfort," with tools such as a lap stand for your E-reader, a handheld electric massager, and the extra cushion I use at my desk to help with back pain. Check out this post if you'd like to find ways to make your desk or reading time more comfortable or for great gift ideas!

Books on My Radar:

Fake Dating My Billionaire Boss, by Evie Sterling: “Damian Knight is a reclusive billionaire who isn’t happy to have to put up with a starving artist—me—in his guest suite. And it doesn’t help that my dog has a taste for his thousand dollar loafers… When he asks me to pretend to be his girlfriend, things get tricky. For a cold grouch, his kisses are as warm as sunshine. I must remember it’s all fake. But I never was a good student. I have a bad habit of going for the wrong answers.”

And these children's picture books would probably make great holiday gifts!

Madeline Finn and the Blessing of the Animals, by Lisa Papp: “When Madeline Finn attends the Blessing of the Animals with Bonnie and Star, she learns that everyone has a gift inside, which they can share with the world. And one way that Madeline Finn can share her blessing is with the animals at her local shelter.” It's part of a series, and “The illustrations are lovely and the message is heartfelt” a reviewer says.

Memo and the Unexpected Gift, by Funda Özlem Seran: “Memo lives in a small cottage with his grandmother. But his grandma can’t see very well anymore, and she falls asleep all the time. Memo starts to feel a bit lonely… until the night he discovers a stray kitten. The boy and cat become fast friends. But as the cat grows and grows (and grows), Memo realizes that this kitten may not be a cat at all. And it most definitely doesn’t belong in a cottage! Memo needs to get his friend home safely. What will become of his big, furry friend?”

George and Tao, by Claude K. Dubois: “Little dog George isn’t sure about the new kitten. George sniffs Tao, they look at each other, they wag and wave their tails. Then they start to play. George and Tao are best friends! But George is too excited and Tao gets hurt. Now Tao is gone. George looks everywhere, then waits—all morning, all afternoon, all night. Will Tao come home? Ideal for families to use as a tool for talking about a new baby or sibling in the home with themes of friendship, overenthusiasm, different styles, and overreaching boundaries.”
