2016, The Year We Defeat out Backlist TBR Sometimes, in a well meaning way, you purchase books, or get books with every intention to read them. But then time passes. And it passes. Like, imagine a comically large amount of time. But you just don’t get around to reading that book. Then that book becomes 20, 50, 100 books on your shelf that you haven’t read yet and you’re just like dying? Well not this year! Not for us. We’ve committed ourselves to reading the following twelve books, one book a month to catch up on our ever-growing TBR. Read on to see what books we picked and if YOU want to join the challenge, then comment or tweet us with a picture of your books! Read more here: http://bit.ly/1n0sFED

A new place to spend money I don't have.
Three highly-anticipated crisp, brown packages arrived today via airmail from Persephone Books. The Far Cry by Emma Smith (1949), High Wages by Dorothy Whipple (1930), and Mariana by Monica Dickens (1940). The tie in end-paper bookmarks featuring period textile patterns are the cherry on top.
Do stuff. Be clenched, curious. Not waiting for inspiration’s shove or society’s kiss on your forehead. Pay attention. It’s all about paying attention. Attention is vitality. It connects you with others. It makes you eager. Stay eager.

Welcome to Cat’s Cafe! Grab a seat and relax. This comic is little experimental. I wanted to create an experience where you could share your thoughts with Cat in the safe setting of this comic/cafe. Cat’s there to listen!
Please let me know your thoughts if you enjoyed the idea of this comic! Might try another where you get to ‘talk’ with Rabbit.
Thanks for reading! :)
