My cat, Charcoal, often sits in my lap, or just to the side of my keyboard, purring when I write. If I pet him too much, though, he starts drooling. Then he shakes his head - like a dog - and saliva flies over me, my keyboard, and the computer screen. Lol. Gross.

Deep River Rising (Tales from Deep River Book 2) is now available from @notapipe.bsky.social! This sweet, cozy romantasy can be read on its own or as a sequel to A Quest for Hidden Things. Details at kareneisenbreywriter.com/deep-river-r...

Image on left is the cover for Deep River Rising (Tales from Deep River Book Two). Text reads: A broken curse should be good news, but Elic can't trust his past choices. The broken enchantment may lead to nothing but broken hearts. "Karen Eisenbrey has made me a fan of cozy romantasies. Low-spice, no bloodshed, and small-town stakes, and I enjoyed every minute of it!" --Benjamin Gorman, author of The Convention of Fiends trilogy
