Say hello to Frannie (with me holding her in my arms). She's a tuxedo cat an animal group rescued from a local junkyard, and we adopted her a couple of years ago. She's a sweetie pie, and I've used her photo as an avatar on some of my social media spots like Facebook and here at Goodreads. She likes to sleep a great deal of the day. Currently, I'm working on my third cozy mystery series and have included a tuxedo cat like Frannie in it. So, when you're reading my cozy mysteries (or other crime novels) with the tuxedo cats in them, you'll know what their inspiration is.
