"All books should have at least one talking cat in them." My friend Susan Douglas believed all books should have at least one talking cat in them. She also believed in my writing ability long before I believed in it myself. After she lost her battle with cancer, I was inspired to write From Where I am Sitting, A Collection of Cat Tales to honour her memory. I developed a plan based on this quote to write a whole book from the point of view of the different cats in my life. I also wrote two chapters about Superhero Susan's cats. This is meant to be a funny, heartwarming read. The tales within may or may not completely reflect the whole truth. I have taken liberties and embellished upon some really fantastic cat tales from the points of view of the different cats that have brought their voices together to help me to write them. Each cat has its own purr-sonality, (see what I did there?) and the trick will be to let them all shine, in their own unique ways. I aspired to write in their different voices, to make it authentic, at least in terms of a fictional, humorous memoir, narrated by various cats. You will read the words of Simba, the cat who was continually amazed by everything around him. Rascal was the sook of the house, a cool cat with a lot of charisma. Mistletoe wrapped Simba, Rascal, my husband and I around her little paw. Lucy was a quirky queen in our house. Dude, well, there is a lot I could share about him, he had a fan club and loved beer for starters. There are stories told by other cats sprinkling their tales around the five pictured on the left. This group of five cats lived legendary lives, and they can't wait for you to read about their adventures!
