Today is Alice Price-Healy Little Liddel Abernathy McGuire's sixth birthday.
Alice is a blue classic tabby and white Maine Coon, bred by Betsy Tinney of Pinecoon Maine Coons in Seattle. She was my first Maine Coon (although not my only for very long), and I'm not kidding when I say that it was love at first sight. It still is.
Alice is stubborn, sweet, intractable, opinionated, devoted, loving, my little angel, my little devil, and often threatened with becoming mittens. Like a toddler, she never wants love more than when I get on the phone. She's sassy and awful and sometimes takes showers with me, and she's probably the best cat I've ever had. A year with Alice is worth five with any other cat, and I've had six of them.
Happy birthday, my terrible girl. Let's have at least ten more.

...a paperback copy of Symbiont!
Welcome to the eighth of the Twelve Days of Hogswatch. I will be starting a new giveaway every day between now and December 25th (some other winter holiday). Each giveaway will have different rules, and a different deadline, although all prizes will be mailed on December 29th, because I am bad at going to the post office (and also, still mailing shirts).
The eighth giveaway is for a copy of the UK edition of Symbiont, which came out across the pond in paperback. This is going to be a random number drawing, because that's working well so far. Because this would cost more to mail outside the United States than the value of the book, this drawing is open to US residents only.
1. To enter, comment on this post.
2. Indicate that you are in the US or have a US mailing address.
3. That's it.
I will choose the winner at 1PM PST on Tuesday, December 23rd.
Game on!
