Sometimes, when I’m hanging with the corporate overlords, Dave emails me photos of what Smudge is doing.
This just in: Smudge, the recently-appointed CEO of Smudge Publishing, LLC, would like to remind all of us that sometimes the best response is to lie down, smile to yourself, and just breathe.

I'm about two-thirds of the way through this detective thriller, and I'm hooked. It's set in modern Norway with flashbacks to WWII (catnip for me!) and features a somewhat grim hero that engenders empathy. I can't help pulling for the guy as I watch him struggle with his case and his life. The cast of characters is a realistic but motley crew, and it reminds me of other favorites set in cold, snowy climes: the Millenium Trilogy and Smila's Sense of Snow.
Recently finished...
I picked up this book after reading an interview with Lee Child (author of the Jack Reacher thrillers). He referred to The Lost as "the book of the century" and since I devour as much as I can about the Holocaust to try to make sense of it all, I decided I needed to read it immediately. Part memoir, part detective tale, this book was thoroughly engrossing. It's intelligent, annoying, moving, frustrating, and ultimately, rewarding and beautifully written. It challenged me in ways I didn't expect, and I was sad when it was finished.
We love our Smupdates! And the CEO of Smudge Publishing is to be congratulated for the incredibly smart decision to offer “Well Fed” in a 1-up pdf format. How gorgeous is it on my iPad now! Thanks, Smudge (& associates) …
adorable. I missed my little furbabies this week while I was traveling. they always make me smile
I tried downloading the “Well Fed” in a 1-up pdf format and it said it wasn’t available. Can you tell me what else I can do?
I would love to come to work for Smudge Publishing, Inc. Any business with naps written into the bylaws gets my “thumbs up!”
And Smudge is such a cutie…
