Office cat’s guide to blogging

Published by Kai on March 7, 2011

Hi there, I’m Office Cat.  My pet, Kai, has graciously allowed me to come onto her blog today to introduce the ‘office cat guide to Blogging’.  But first, may I offer my feline feliciations and give you an idea of who I am and my (blogging) pedigree. My name is Jenuine WildTansy, and I am an F4 Bengal.  But my mom (and pet) calls me Kushka, or Kushie, or Fuzzbutt, which is very undignified. But what my pet has told me about Blogging is *really* valuable, so valuable in fact that I wanted to share.  She’s doing the 30 day…

A bit of a catchup #mondayblogs

A bit of a catchup #mondayblogs

Published by Kai on November 27, 2023

I’m in the end phases of NanoWrimo, and while I’m going to scrape through and passed the 50k goal (I’ll probably get it today), it hasn’t been the best – for various reasons, both around the project, and not. The last post on this blog was just before everything – and I really do mean *everything* changed.  I don’t actually know what happened.  I’m told that a few days before everything tipped upside down for me. Basically, I woke up on that Thursday afternoon, and came down to talk to my partner. But I was confused.  The house wasn’t right. It…

C is for Cats

C is for Cats

Published by Kai on April 4, 2023
This entry is part 5 of 22 in the series AtoZ 2023 - The AtoZ of Me

Some days, I have to do two posts for the day, but when I do, it’s because I’m equally passionate about each topic. Today, I’ll be talking about C-PTSD (mental health), and I’ve also got my cats to talk about. Cause they’d never forgive me if I didn’t give them a mention, at least. And in a way, they’re interlinked. I think the cats keep me grounded and sane. They keep me company when there’s only me in the house, and give me something to focus on. Plus, I’m pretty sure the studies on purring at least have some evidence,…

The countdown to Glass Block – DedicationsGlass BLock by D Kai Wilson-Viola

The countdown to Glass Block – Dedications

Published by Kai on May 17, 2022
This entry is part 1 of 1 in the series Countdown to Glass Block...and beyond...

So, Glass Block will be out on Friday the 20th, and in the countdown to it, I’ll be sharing some stuff. Tomorrow, I’ll be talking about why it’s even related, in a way to my non-fiction, but front and centre, I wanted to share my dedications. Not everyone that supports me is specifically name-checked here, for various reasons, but I’ve covered, I hope, everyone important. Dedications Dear reader. Most of these names won’t mean a thing to you, unless you’re one of the people listed. You are welcome to skip them, but if you know me, online or off, you…

Immunocompromised again #MondayBlogs #ouch #myface #Shingles

Published by Kai on July 17, 2023

I was quite looking forward to redesigning my blog and adding a new feature last week, but as the week wore on and I spent more time in bed, editing (I can’t complain, not really, I’ve got the ‘luxury’ of doing that, I guess), it turned out that I was really struggling for a different reason, beyond ‘maybe I overdid it a bit while doing all the things in the last six weeks (beginning of June, to now, I’ve done two conventions, one Discovery session, one UK Arena (#LudoSport #OneNameOneSky #Bristol!) plus all of the other stuff, from dealing with…

Kintsugi and Levelling up #gamergal #mondayblogs

Published by Kai on October 4, 2021

So, firstly, I’ve spent the last week with shingles all up one side of my face. It’s not *the most* painful thing I’ve ever felt, but gotta be honest, it’s close. Because of this, my ‘October announcements’ post and this one have kinda rolled up. The pot of my soul, cracked as it is I’ve been talking about ‘levelling up’ a lot on my private groups. I’ve been talking about several things really, but I want to be clear. My major one is community. I talk – a lot – about #payitforward and that the #writingcommunity is very important to…

Kushka…The best six years we could ever have wished for

Kushka…The best six years we could ever have wished for

Published by Kai on March 16, 2013

I’ve been trying to write this post for about a month.  And each time I do, I end up crying and backing away from it.  But it’s with the heaviest heart that I report that Kushka Viola, aka OfficeCat, was put to sleep on February 26th, after a short but valiant battle with her various illnesses. The last post was a few days to go until Glass Block….. The day before the release was the other half’s birthday, but the night before,  Kushie was having trouble breathing.  We thought it was another infection (Kush had a URI from adoption) and steamed her…
