The Adventures of Alex the Vegetarian Coyote

[Cynthia Daniel]

I lived in Tucson for about 3 months and got to see coyotes come up in the yard.

My son is 35! I remember the day he was born, I said to myself "I wonder what each of us will be doing and where we will be in 30 years." It was interesting 5 years ago to think back to that thought. If anyone had told me then what we each would be doing 30 years later, I'd never have believed it! My son is an award winning chef and I own Stroke of Genius! Who'd have thought because back then I was working on mainframe computers (boring!).

So good to see The Forum back, alive and kicking!

Sorry for my delayed reply, Mike, Miguelín, Mikele....Such gracious words, thanks for the plug! Your check is in the mail.
I am the one who is lucky to have the honor to illustrate this book. I recommend it to anyone, child and adult alike. My only wish is that my work comes up to expectations. If it doesn´t I can always try and make up for it with bread, the eating kind, anytime you´re in this side of the ´charco´.

So, here´s to Mr. McCarty, and Alex and Bernice! ...And of course to Eva!

Greetings,

Carlos and I have finally brought this project to completion. We now have our book published in both English and Spanish, in Kindle and paperback.

You can view them here: https://www.amazon.com/author/mikemccarty
And on the web site here: www.alexandbernice.com

Cynthia, just as soon as I get my hands on one of these books I will scribble something in it to Cicley, then send it across the ocean to Carlos so he can do the same. We will then need the full $8.95, plus 20% for each inscription before we can actually send it your way. Shoot me an email with your current address. If you would like a bobble head doll of either Carlos or myself write your request on a $100 bill and send it to the Miguelito / Carlito solvency fund, LLC.

Here are a few of my fav illustrations, one preliminary sketch, and the front and back cover. You can see these illustrations in greater resolution at the web site above.

Amazon says that I can't give myself positive comments on the book ...

Wow, Mike and Carlos, this is so exciting! I just ordered your book and shared to Facebook. I am so happy this came through for you two. Please do a victory dance for me

I can't wait to read it! Congratulations!

[Mike McCarty]

Bless you Linda Brandon, and bless your easel.

"Please do a victory dance for me"

Carlos and I have discussed doing a joint numa numa victory dance with a flamenco twist. We've reached out to Gwenyth Paltrow to be the dummy that I would tackle. Carlos, however, insists that he should be the one to tackle her. It may be a moot point since she hasn't even thought to reply. If she continues to ignore us we'll look to you.

If I can coax him to the states (he says he's never been) we'll get this done. Or, better yet, I would go to Madrid, or even better still, we all go to Spain and eat paella, drink Spanish wine and paint the sunset.

...victory dance....hmmm...Mike and me....I´m trying to picture it...

Thanks you LInda and thank you Cynthia...all support is welcome! I like that Solvency Fund, Miguelito.

If this Paltrow woman never responds, we can always resort to this babe who looks like she could do a mean paella for when you come.
