UNIVERSAL WRITERS' TIP:

GET A CAT.

(The one pictured is Sid.)

This morning I feel, that this is so far the best advice I received today.

With my cat sitting practically in my lap

Between me and the keyboard

Shedding white hair on both of us,

Me and the keyboard

Purring softly in my ear

She will not budge an inch

So with one hand I embrace her

(and keep her body from the keys)

With the other I click away

Leaning over her

I know it looks strange

But the radiating warmth

Mingles with fluffy soft hair

Reminds me every time not to take myself

Too seriously.
