Recently we started fostering kittens. Here is a glamour shot of the very cute and handsome kitten, Burger. (His siblings were named Buns, Tomato, Lettuce and Special Sauce.)

My cat editors

Orange Cat Emoji

Since the internet was made for sharing cat pictures, I thought everyone would love to see my cats hard at work. For 10 years now, I’ve been supervised by my crew of cat editors. It’s been a challenge to learn how to work around a cat. As a matter of fact, Furrell is sitting between my arms as I type right now.

If you bought a copy of Feel Your Feelings, you may recognize the emoji on the last page. Calvin, the orange cat, passed away just before our book went to the printer. Thanks to our human editor Sarah F. for allowing us to dedicate the book to a cat. Calvin was my constant office companion and a cat full of big feelings.

Also, below is Sueño, which means “dream” in Spanish. She reminds me of my time as a Cultural Ambassador teaching kids how to dream in Argentina.

Here Furrell (top right), Calvin, and Chloe take turns inspecting our work. This is the original Dream Playbook. We printed out thumbnails (tiny pages) and are putting them in a new order.
