My Lovecraftian fairy tale “Whispers to the Moon Are Always Heard By Cats” will appear in the Write Lovecraft Like Neil Gaiman issue of Jersey Devil Press.
“Whispers to the Moon Are Always Heard By Cats” is a retelling of the classic french folk story “Puss in Boots” mashed with certain elements of Lovecraft that involve famous felines from a place called Ulthar.
I’ve never been personally fully comfortable with cats, but I do have a wife that loves them greatly. Writing this story involved a number of fun exchanges between us, specifically about the importance of fancy shoes and the love of a good cat.
