Kitty Cat, Sweetie Pie, Fluffy Butt, Wonderpuss: All the endearing nicknames we call our cats from time to time may show affection, but there is one name we should be calling them on a regular basis—their own.

BOOK REVIEW: “LIFE ADVICE FROM MR. DILL PICKLES” | Mollie Hunt: Crazy Cat Lady Mysteries and more

MOTIVES FOR MURDER | Mollie Hunt: Crazy Cat Lady Mysteries and more
For any mystery writer, one of the first things we need to learn are the things that motivate someone to kill someone else. In many cases, motives for murder are condensed into what writers call the Four L’s: Lust; Love; Loathing; and Loot. I prefer to work from a more expanded list. I’m not sure…

REFLECTION IN A DARK POND | Mollie Hunt: Crazy Cat Lady Mysteries and more
Our world is fraught with chaos, disaster, tragedy, and injustice.
