Look, I'm not one to make a big fuss about nothing, but this last week has been too eventful to ignore. Not only was I kicked out of my own home, I was also attacked-yes, attacked, I tell you-on no less than two separate occasions. First there was the big vacuum cleaner scare, and then there was what I like to call 'the Roomba incident,' as it involved one of those terrible robotic vacuums. Of course we fought back, on both occasions, I might add, and for a moment we thought we'd snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.

Look, I'm not one to make a big fuss about nothing, but this last week has been too eventful to ignore. Not only was I kicked out of my own home, I was also attacked-yes, attacked, I tell you-on no less than two separate occasions. First there was the big vacuum cleaner scare, and then there was what I like to call 'the Roomba incident,' as it involved one of those terrible robotic vacuums. Of course we fought back, on both occasions, I might add, and for a moment we thought we'd snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. But that was before Odelia brought in the big guns, in the form of the Trainor sisters, Blanche and Bella. Cleaning ladies by profession, and cat haters by vocation. Their philosophy is that cats don't belong in the home, and so they locked our respective pet flaps-and started the war. And it wasn't as if I didn't have other things to worry about. There was Uncle Alec, being the center of some vile gossip campaign, and there was the spate of burglaries terrorizing our small and otherwise peaceful town. But it's hard to focus on fighting crime when you're dealing with a pair of cat-hating cleaning ladies, wouldn't you agree? And did I mention that they locked our pet flaps? Of all the dastardly, horrible, monstrous... But let's not dwell on the negatives. There are plenty of positives in this new chronicle of my adventures, too. So please do read on, for a furry good time!
Autorenporträt
Nic has a background in political science and before being struck by the writing bug worked odd jobs around the world (including but not limited to massage therapist in Mexico, gardener in Italy, restaurant manager in India, and Berlitz teacher in Belgium).When he's not writing he enjoys curling up with a good (comic) book, watching British crime dramas, French comedies or Nancy Meyers movies, sampling pastry (apple cake!), pasta and chocolate (preferably the dark variety), twisting himself into a pretzel doing morning yoga, going for a brisk walk, and spoiling his cats Ricky and Lily.He lives with his wife (and aforementioned cats) in a small village smack dab in the middle of absolutely nowhere and is probably writing his next 'Mysteries of Max' book right now.
