In my SFR whodunit with mind reading talking cats, you can find out who did it! How? One easy method. Buy the book and read it! Catagenesis on sale now.
Why can’t mind reading cats figure out who’s doing it any faster than a 110,000 word book? It’s a mystery. I mean, literally, it’s a mystery novel. As to what they’re doing instead…
Wow, those cats really aren’t much help, are they!

Anybody like to review SFRs? I have a few ARCs of CATAGENESIS left to share if you have a proven track record of actually posting reviews OR we already know each other. How about it? Reviews can be short, a paragraph explaining why’d you’d recommend, are ambivalent about, or did not like the book in question — and I’m not the kind of author who’ll get ticked at you if you don’t give me 5 stars A+++. What kind of asshole does that?? But seriously.
Email me if you’d like to apply to be on my ARC team!
Here is a short blurb that a helpful cyber denizen helped me with, as opposed to the long one on the book page you can see if you click the cover.
Two humans, a bunch of cats, a space ship … and murder.
Until a talking cat interrupted a business meeting, Han-Ja Gee thought he knew everything. He made a living selling information and secrets to almost anyone willing to pay. If he could discover how talking cats actually exist, he could pay off the life-debt he owes and leave Trash Planet forever.
On a generation ship whose passengers woke up two thousand years late—and whose cats became sentient—Farah Shine Collins struggles to adjust. When she is asked to partner with a local citizen from the current century in solving a murder on board the ship, she knows it will be trouble.
Han-Ja dreamt of escape and Farah dreamt of a place to call home. Neither expected to fall in love. If they cannot stop the killer, the collateral damage will be more than their hopes and dreams. It will be their lives.
Thanks again to Aysha for helping me gain more perspective on revising my book blurb! Be sure to ask me about the Catagenesis ARCs today.

I ask because most of my books aren’t in paperback and I’m trying to decide if I should remedy that. So I made a poll! You can elaborate in the comments.

In honor of summer and it being too hot here in TN to reasonably go outside, I am setting several of my series starters to “free” for a couple months.
You’ll have to track down which ones, though :). I don’t know if Amazon will comply, either. Please feel free to contact me if you have questions!
Here is a cat who is free of concerns:

So far I’m pretty dubious about March. Feel free to give me reasons to be POSITIVE….one way or the other!
Cass says hi.

New Year’s Magic, by Jody Wallace
At precisely 12:00 am on New Year’s Day, when he came at her for a celebratory kiss, Ana’s date turned into a pumpkin.
“Crap!” Ana snatched up the large gourd before any of her fellow revelers smashed it. The residual effects of the spell should prevent bystanders from noticing the transmogrification, but the spell to change Jimmy back into the human he’d been ten seconds ago wouldn’t work on pumpkin pulp.
A pumpkin…and a cat butt!
She was going to kill that damn cat. This time, she was really going to do it.
Leading with the pumpkin, she pushed free of the throng. Confetti and balloons drifted from the ceiling as the crowd broke into a drunken rendition of Auld Lang Syne. Her stilettos pinched her toes with every stomp.
Not that the date had been going fabulously—it was hard for a sorceress to relax with a normie, even one as cute as Jimmy—but she’d been dateless for too long. The last man who’d truly interested her… Well, the less said about him the better.
Except she’d be saying a lot of things to him here in about twenty minutes. Threatening things.

Did you ever wish you could talk to your cats, find out why they are stalking around the house at 3 am and howling? Or staring at the wall with an eerie, fixed concentration? Today’s writer prompt brings that fantasy to life. Sort of. How do you imagine this scene would go? What would happen next?
We’d love to see what you come up with!

Many of us have the experience of moving into a new house, apartment, condo, or what have you and finding unexpected difficulties or bonuses about the new place. But what if your cat is the one who finds the bonus? And is it really a bonus? Can you tell me what’s going on here?
