By Liz, trying to hold on to every last moment of summer
I was really struggling to find a super compelling topic for today’s blog. The bad news is, I couldn’t think of one. The good news, I didn’t need one because my new cover showed up in my inbox and I thought it was the perfect opportunity to give you all a sneak peek!

How much do you love this cover!! It is my favorite one so far. It’s got everything that I love – yoga, orange cats, gongs, a zen garden…and butterflies. Butterflies have been showing up a lot for me lately, and I thought it was totally a sign when I saw them all over the cover!
Now, I just need to finish the book…
Tell me in the comments what your favorite part of the cover is, and I’ll give away one copy of Claws For Alarm.
My favorite part? Downward cat of course!

Love it! Kitty doing downward dog is my favorite, yoga gives it a relaxing feel but I’m sure there’s a good mystery to come! Now, just a question for you: why do authors use pseudonyms? Is it because you have different series under different names?

Thanks, Kathy! There are lots of reasons. For me, it was because I had different publishers. But now they are both using the name Cate, so who knows…

Fabulous cover, Liz! Is that the feline version of downward dog? My ginger cat helps me with yoga practice every morning.

Ha – I’m sure it’s very helpful, Kait 😉 That’s one of the reasons I have a hard time doing yoga at home.

Everything on the cover works so well together that it’s the whole package that grabs your attention at first. When I start to examine all the details, I love the koi pond and how the cat, although doing yoga, seems to be keeping his eye on the fish. As a nature lover, love the addition of the butterflies. As a bell collector who has everything from the small bells to Navy ship deck bells, 317 lb. brass railroad bells to several large church bells, the first thing I noticed and loved was the gong thinking how well it would work into my collection.
There’s no doubt in my mind that “Gone But Not Furgotten” is going to be a fabulous, must-read book.
Thank you for the chance to win a copy of “Claws For Alarm”. Shared and hoping to be the fortunate one selected.

While I love the cat because, well, cats and dogs are special to me, I like the gong the best. I picked it because it’s the first time I’ve seen a gong on any book before. It could be a sign that this book is unlike any other just like the cover. I wish you well with the newest release.
