It sounds just like my cats since we brought a brand-new and very soft and comfy cat bed. This was meant to give each cat their own bed - but they all want the new one. <br /><br />I also lovethe way you described why a 'feud boook' works - that's exactly it, isn't it? And it gives that added depth to the story. <br /><br />Good luck with those revisions - I hope they do the trick!Kate Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17277223651288830541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-21778320696118444122010-03-10T03:23:25.606-05:002010-03-10T03:23:25.606-05:00Caren, I agree - I love a family feud, so long as ...Caren, I agree - I love a family feud, so long as it doesn't involve me.

I feel like such a slacker! And TWO top picks !! That is fabulous!<br /><br />I do love a family feud. I'm refereeing one right now between my dachshund sisters. Each has her own "blankie" but Sassy wants her own blankie AND Adelaide's. VEry serious stuff when you are a dachshund!<br /><br />But I love to read about family feuds. The dynamic is so powerful. The idea of people who SHOULD love and protect each other being a place where they just can't do that always makes for a great story.<br /><br />I am celebrating being SO close to finishing the revisions my agent asked for that I can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel!<br /><br /><br />And I am HOPING to celebrate the arrival of Spring if my azaleas will actually show me even ONE bud. Once that happens, Spring is Sprung at my house!Louisa Cornellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12971924594129471055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-6898122500111287182010-03-09T20:20:33.674-05:002010-03-09T20:20:33.674-05:00Kate, so great to have you back in the Lair!
I lo...Kate, so great to have you back in the Lair!<br /><br />I love a good family feud myself - as long as it's not MY family, of course. *g* Your new book sounds wonderful! <br /><br />As to what I am celebrating this March, there are many great things. First, the sun is out and it was 72 degrees outside today. Spring has unofficially arrived in NC! <br /><br />Next, my troop has had a tremendously successful cookie sale and, best of all, it's almost over!! We will be using the money to help fund a trip where we will zipline through the treetops, go whitewater rafting and do rock climbing and rappelling. Too fun!<br /><br />Best of all, my older daughter will turn 17 this month. Nearly grown and I can hardly believe it! She is a magnificent and gorgeous young woman who makes me proud ever day. <br /><br />Lots to celebrate in my life and a glorious new Kate Walker book. Does life get much better?<br /><br />Thank you so much for being with us, Kate!Caren Cranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12352366686017375279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-82605547457793885902010-03-09T18:50:31.999-05:002010-03-09T18:50:31.999-05:00Late for the party, but had to say WELCOME BACK to...Late for the party, but had to say WELCOME BACK to the Lair, Kate! <br /><br />So lovely to have you back with us and celebrating 25 years in the publishing biz! WOW! Truly a reason to break out the industrial sized blender for some cyber-drinks! And SUPER CONGRATS on you Top Picks! If only there were a magic formula that we could all follow...<br /><br />I'm celebrating the birth of my newest grand-niece Rylee born of Feb. 20th and just learned my youngest niece Emily and her hubby are expecting baby #1 sometime in November! This will be grandchild #10 for my brother, who really should share a few of them with ME. ;-)<br /><br />ACLoucinda McGary aka Aunty Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02217492654108300014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-88619080264219629842010-03-09T17:34:08.578-05:002010-03-09T17:34:08.578-05:00Welcome back to the Lair, Kate!
