After Chris died, I read the book I wrote about him for the first time since I published it over eleven years ago. I’m embarrassed to say I found a lot of errors, most of which were commas. I feel I am a much better writer today, but commas are still my kryptonite. Either I don’t put them where they belong, or I put them where they don’t belong.
I went through the book and corrected the mistakes I found without changing the story. I also updated the backmatter with information about my current books. In addition, I changed the cover. I was never entirely happy with the cover. I don’t know why I didn’t change it years ago.
I decided to offer the corrected version for free today through Saturday. Unfortunately, it is only available on Kindle, so you can’t get it as a physical book. Maybe someday I’ll look into doing that. To get your free Kindle book, click here.
As always, writing a review of any of my books would be very helpful and I would appreciate it.
Bad Cat Chris 
I look at the books I wrote years ago and cringe frequently…….and I had an editor who was supposed to catch some of those things! Anyway, the content is the thing people read our books for and I’m sure they see those extra commas and small boo boos but it’s still a story to read for fun.

I agree. It got good reviews, and nobody mentioned the errors.
Funny when you look back and find the boo boos.
Happens all the time.
I also have a comma problem. Sigh. We need a support group or something for comma abusers.
The rules for commas are complicated and hard to remember. I used to think you just put a comma where there was a pause in speech, but that’s not true.
How kind of you to offer!
I don’t have a kindle…oh bother.
You can get a Kindle app for your phone or just read it online.
I’m only seeing about Chris just now. I’m so sorry. Lots and lots of purrs to you.
Thank you so much.
I bought the original years ag when I first discovered your blog. Amazon won’t let me buy it again because I already own it. When you have some time can you get them to allow us old fans to get the update ?
Maybe if you remove it from your Kindle device and then redownload it, it will update automatically.
I love Chris’ book. I will spread the word.
Thanks.
That’s a great picture!
I took that not long after we adopted Chris.
I’m going to try to find time to read it online, if I can figure out how!
I have the Alexa app on my phone and I tell her to read my ebooks while I’m driving to work and back.
We believe it’s a good book, even without the komma’s😸🐾😽💞
Thank you.
