Today I’m going to promote Catscapades, True Cat Tales. Amazon has already placed an order for this book, along with 5 other books. How cool is that?
Check out the book at my brand new Catscapades page at http://www.matilijapress.com/catscapades.html
What is Catscapades? This is a 130-page perfect-bound print book filled with over 40 full-length stories and vignettes depicting many of the cats and kittens I’ve known throughout my life. And it is illustrated with 46 charming photographs of cats and kittens, such as Lily, the adorable kitten on the cover.
If you like cats, you’ll love this book. As you will notice at my website, I’m offering a prepublication discount. Order the book prior to March 15, 2010 and I’ll pay the shipping. I’ll also tuck in a free gift you can use for each book purchased.
I often talk about seasonal promotion. Wouldn’t this charming book make a great Easter gift? And also think Mother’s Day! Do you know a cat person who has a birthday coming up? Or how about presenting your cat sitter, thoughtful neighbor, hairdresser, or your children’s teacher a book as a thank you for something nice they did for you.
Visit my website and see what you think of the new book cover (photo taken by Ruth Miller, a professional photographer friend of mine and cat person). This is actually a revision of my original Catscapades ebook, so I have collected quite a list of testimonials from readers, including professionals. Be sure to check out my testimonials page.
And let me know if you have questions—for example, do you have a bookstore and you’d like to purchase books on consignment? Do you have a large list of friends you’d like to present with copies and you want bulk order price?
If you or your friends love true stories about real cats, you’ll enjoy this book. You’ll meet cats that remind you of those you’ve known and some whose stories will leave you shaking your head. Have you ever known a cat to be catnapped, for example? How many kittens have you scooped up off of the streets or out of a woodpile and socialized? Oh what baggage some of them come with. Have you ever had the challenge of finding homes for 15 kittens at one time? Have you dealt with a cat who received a head injury in a horrific accident? (This story, too, has a happy ending.) Within the pages of this book, you’ll meet cats who stubbornly choose where they wanted to live, a spayed cat who showed up with a newborn kitten, a reluctant babysitting cat, a cat who responded to mind-talk and two kittens who responded to a spiritual healing.
Order your copy of Catscapades today and be sure to buys copies for your friends during the prepublication discount days (through March 15, 2010). http://www.matilijapress.com/catscapades.html
