Sorry I was absent from the blog yesterday. I was so busy checking Twitter and Facebook  working that I did not get to write a post. So I will make it all up to you by giving away some free swag. Holla for some free stuff!

First I have "Homer's Odyssey: A Fearless Feline Tale, Or How I Learned About Love and Life with a Blind Wonder Cat" by Gwen Cooper.  How much do I really need to explain about a book with that declarative title? The author recounts her life with her blind kitten, who saved her life and helped her find love. This book will go to the first kitty lover who can tell me the name of my cat, and no, it's not His Royal Highness no matter how he prefers to be addressed.

The second book is "Nose Down, Eyes Up"by Merrill Markoe. This is a novel is about a man, his four dogs and the women in his lfe and is described on the book jacket as "a revealing examination of the inter-species power of love, sex, family and real estate and why everyone -on two legs or four- deserves to have his or her day." It was an Oprah Book Club selection. This book can be yours if you can tell me the names of my two greyhounds.
