The Friday 56 - Beauty for Ashes







He motioned her to the seat beside the window,
lowered himself into his chair,
and took up his pipe.
His gray cat, India, 
hopped onto the desk to greet Carrie
before settling into her favorite spot
on the windowsill.

    This passage creates a very pleasant scene. I was hooked when the cat jumped onto the desk.

    Oooh, I like the name India for a cat, or anything for that matter, but I prefer black cats. I really like the cover for this book! I'm a new Twitter follower, hop on over if you have the time:

I genuinely cherish the thoughts and insights of my readers, and I wholeheartedly welcome your engagement. However, to foster a truly constructive dialogue, I’ll be keeping a careful eye on the comments section. This means I’ll be moderating to weed out any spammy detritus, overly harsh critiques, or contributions that don’t add anything meaningful to the conversation. Think of it as my little corner of the internet—a space where everyone can share their perspectives without the noise. Let’s make this a place where ideas can flourish and grow, rather than wither away in the shadows of irrelevance.
