BOOK EXPO AMERICA

This weekend, at my behest, Steve and his female will be attending Book Expo America (BEA), which is the mother of all book trade shows… book industry humans come from all around the country to attend. Too scary for cats, though. I think even Shill, my robotic book signing emissary kitty, will pass on this one.

This year, BEA is being held in Los Angeles, which is highly convenient (and cheap) for Steve and his female. They’ll be in the Sterling Publishing booth schmoozing with anyone who will listen to them and spreading the word about The World Is Your Litter Box. And here’s the best part (for moi, anyway)… being a cat author, I don’t have to do anything! While Steve and the female are spending endless hours in a packed, teeming conventional hall promoting MY book, I’ll be… that’s right, at home napping in all my favorite places.

Is it great to be a literary lion (or, at least, a literary kitty) or what?

Will you let Shill go, too? Now that he has had a taste of fame, I am sure he will want to go to all of the book events.

I didn't know you had a book. that's really great! Mom is always bringing books home, but not as much now that she doesn't make money by working at the book store in order to just buy more books.

Congratulations on your book signing event. Wow...your an author now. How wonderful is that!

I hope you have great success with your book.

And yes, I'd love to come visit you and Shill someday. Just let me know when.

Your Bud, Mike

Ok, remember when you suggested us to not pay attention to our mommy when she returns from NYC, well we didn't, but the stupid spoos went crazy and emptied their toy chest at her feet! So remember that... when your beans return....... Did you hide Shill so he couldn't take away your fame!(snicker)=^Y^=Ty
