Border Queen Book Festival

This past Saturday I attended the first annual Border Queen Book Festival in Comanche, Oklahoma and signed/sold books with about 40 other local authors. What a treat! The event was widely advertised and promoted as a literacy event so a large number of school children attended.

As a writer of pet books, I’m often mistaken for a children’s author. Young people certainly may appreciate my work and most certainly love cats and d*gs with as equal a passion. But my books are not written specifically for children but more for a pet-savvy adult reader interested in how-to information on care, health, behavior and training. So I was a bit concerned if the audience would be appropriate.

So I’m pleased to report that many cat and d*g lovers attended, stopped by to talk pets and ask questions, and a few even purchased a book or two. It was also a great treat to meet and compare notes with other authors. Interesting, isn’t it, that even the authors who don’t specifically write ABOUT cats may also have a “furry muse” at home that inspires them to write.

My Seren(dipity) cat would say, “That’s paw-sitively natural!.”
