Science Fiction. Progressive Christianity. And Other Improbable Optimisms.
About Me
- Susan Palwick
- Former English professor, changing careers to go into social work. SF/fantasy writer. Episcopalian. Licensed lay preacher. Hospital volunteer offering spiritual care in the ER. Spinner, weaver, knitter. And a few other things, less easily labeled. The title of this blog is a phrase John Clute used to describe the plots of my first two novels. It both amused and annoyed me, and I finally decided to reclaim it as a badge of honor. Would you prefer rickety contrivances of doing bad?

Susan, that is one sleek looking kitty. How young is he? I should know but didn't keep track. Sorry. :(
ReplyDeletePeace!
He's four, but I doubt he'll bulk up much as he ages. He has a naturally lean build (unlike the other two, who are chunkier under all their fur.
ReplyDeleteGood for him! That'll keep him healthy. :) Hooboo has Figgy's physique and Hyram is more like Bali and Harley. But, I've gotten Hyram down to a fighting 17 pounds! That's 5 pounds off from a couple of years ago. We're both proud of that!
