Sunshine and good reviews make Franklin happy!
All the kitties, even grumpy Franklin, are celebrating the review of Catwoods by Ellen Pilch of the website “15 and Meowing”! We’re basking in the feeling of having really connected with a reader and fellow cat appreciator! That’s the best part of having a book out!
Ellen, a major cat blogger, features her own kitties in her posts. Take a look at her site, it’s charming! Ellen is a fellow member of the Cat Writers’ Association and has written two children’s books about cats, Prancie’s Prayer, and I Am Not A Skunk. I am looking forward to reading them! She also contributed to the anthology Black Cats Tell All. So check her books out! She reads a lot of cat books and does frequent reviews. You can find Ellen’s review of Catwoods here.
Find the books by Ellen Pilch on Amazon here.
Stay tuned as I’m working on lots of pictures and hope to be back soon!
I live near a creek in a forest, in close observation and awe of the wildlife outside, as well as the domestic animals of the household. I'm writer Leah T. Alford. I was "catwoods" on this site Catwoods Porch Party, Itchmo Forums for Cats and Dogs, and a few other sites that may or may not exist now. I have now published a book, and the publisher wanted it called Catwoods. I never expected the book title to be the same as my username, so for now I've changed the username to Leah.

We saw that wonderful review over at 15andMeowing. Ellen is wonderful and she is a true, true can lover through and through. She’s also the Tooth Fairy!
I think Ellen is wonderful too! I did not know she was also the Tooth Fairy! Will have to look into that . . .
Congratulations! 🙂
Thank you Lynette, I appreciate it!
There is a CAT WRITERS’ ASSOCIATION? 😱
Indeed there is, and it’s international! Here is the link: http://catwriters.com/wp_meow/about-cwa-2/#.XscEY0RKiUk
Leah, great news! Yay-rah!!!
I just shared this post (which includes the review link) to my Twitter page. I have 1,264 followers so we’ll see how it goes 🤗
Well-deserved honor indeed – congratulations!

Deb, thanks so very much for you kind words and for posting this on Twitter! I’ve thought about joining twitter but also Instragram. But I don’t think I could manage yet another website.
Congratulations. And Franklin has a great pair of happy eyes!
Franklin and I thank you arlingwoman! Frankie has really large eyes and many expressions. Many look cranky so I’m glad I caught him happy this time!
Nice review. I’m still picking away at it. I have so many things to read and so many projects I working on that I often feel like I’m not getting anywhere. Franklin looks really happy. Great photo of him.
Franklin and I thank you Tim! It’s not always easy to get a picture of Frank that I like these days. No rush about reading, I am a total slacker about reading anything these days myself. From seeing your posts it looks to me like your projects are all working out really well!
