hello friends, i am very pleased to announce the publication of a book several years in the making, which i call Tomcat Tobit. it is a fairy tale in verse, featuring many many felis catuses, and it is also an adaptation of the biblical book of tobit, though that part's not so important. if you were a fan of the classic Rodolphus, the only bear, and even if you scorned and detested the classic Lemony Snicket's BIG Trial, the devil presiding (rated R!!!), you are quite likely to enjoy this new work. most importantly, i'm sure you will enjoy the bountiful beautiful pictures, both black&white and color, by our very own Violent BUN Fortuna . it's the greatest 667er collab since bsam sang sixteen's les mis..... the book will be available on Amazon in a few weeks. but you can order it right now by clicking here ! this book would never have existed without Lumpety Snuggit or Six Six Seven, so i thank you all, and i particularly thank those of you who buy a copy !!

What a pleasant surprise! This looks splendid. Rodolphus was a banger of a story (through perhaps gruesome if illustrated...). Do I wish the book were a little cheaper? Yes ![:-X](//storage.proboards.com/253263/images/qxnCNdbJGODvxlVrLEcD.gif) . Will I probably buy it anyway? Yes. Congarats, JRR Blower & congarats, Tabitha who is a very talented illustrator.

Yes ![:-X](//storage.proboards.com/253263/images/qxnCNdbJGODvxlVrLEcD.gif) ya. for what it's worth, it's because i wanted to do justice to the illustrations, so it has pretty much the highest print cost available from this printer. but if we meet in july i will give you a copy then ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/253263/images/XZegnGFAZKvbfVYrDFdG.gif)

I'm sorry for not noticing this earlier—I've become tardy. This is amazing, and I thank you both for your continued contributions to 667's cooperative history. Ms. Violent BUN Fortuna, this is the second 667er you've illustrated a book for. Any idea of a third?

Ms. Violent BUN Fortuna , this is the second 667er you've illustrated a book for. Any idea of a third? This is actually technically already the third, as I drew a cover for Isadora Is a Door a while ago, but I don’t think he ever shared it on here. But as to a fourth -- anyone who wants me lol, illustrators are always looking for work. Thank you to everyone for the nice words! And thank you most of all to bear for commissioning me in the first place, and for being incredibly patient through umpteen delays. This is the biggest project I've worked on and I can honestly say I absolutely loved doing it. I highly recommend it for the writing, which I was very impressed by. When I have my copy I will post photos!

Aside from the artistic quality of the illustrations, the quality of the pages&print looks fantastic! (I guess it's made by the Lulu online company?)
