A piece I wrote recently for the Financial Times.

Oh, probably should mention: the guy in the pic is Georges Perec, an experimental French novelist who once wrote an entire book without one "e" in it. I didn't include him, but I love the photo.

Thanks for telling who the guy in the picture is, I like the picture too.

Whiskers was a Hemingway cat, I hope to have another one claim me one day.

Dang it, I could not access the article but thanks for writing it, and as we ALL know, REAL MEN LOVE CATS and the rest...I'd be arrested for even posting about what I'd like to happen to THEM.

OK you're freaking me out here! I'm reading your excellent book, I put a link to it on my blog. Next thing I know Janet has added me as a friend on facebook?? And I didn't even know about The Little Cat Diaries!!

I would imagine that Georges Perec was abit oversubscribed with regard to "e" already, so understand his desire to eschew it in his book :)
