You are not just the drop in the ocean. You are the mighty ocean in the drop. – Rumi

This new Hubble image, captured and released to celebrate the telescope’s 23rd year in orbit, shows part of the sky in the constellation of Orion (The Hunter). Rising like a giant seahorse from turbulent waves of dust and gas is the Horsehead Nebula, otherwise known as Barnard 33.

Postcard from a time traveler

Ideas catch each other attention, unaware of the consequences. They must stand the test of time, at least a day, to see if they’ll travel farther on the path to becoming a whole story.

Just a note to let you know I haven’t disappeared. Working… if I must call it that…on the sequel to Guardian Cats.

Time traveler. Dust mote catcher. Word sleuth.

Aside

“Ideas begin their life as small seeds, so light they may drift through the air like dust motes. If a human is fortunate enough to catch one, when the light is right, it can be planted, just like a seed. With fertile soil, it may grow into a flower or tree, which will re-seed, thus producing a whole field or forest.”  Cicero, the old library cat to Marco, his apprentice.

Quote from Guardian Cats and the Lost Books of Alexandria.

About the book: Cicero, the old library cat is more than he seems — an elder Guardian charged with protecting an ancient book of power. Buried in a secret chamber, the book is a magnet for attracting the wrong kind of attention. Painfully aware his days are numbered, Cicero is troubled by the fact that he has found no successor.

Marco, a house cat alone in the world for the first time, finds refuge in the public library, a suitable home for an orange tabby gifted with the ability to read. But an unlimited amount of reading time is not young Marco’s destiny. Guardian Cats and the Lost Books of Alexandria.
