This Week At PINK SATURDAY...

This week at Pink Saturday, we all were invited to a special party. We were asked to share a special story of inspiration or perhaps even a miracle story. OR we could just go ahead with sharing our “normal” Pink Saturday. I decided to do a bit of both as you can see below. Why did Beverly request this of us? Well, there is a really great story circling the web about Colette, who received a room makeover…a miracle healing room makeover and this is a way to pass it on. By participating, Colette’s story can continue to inspire others and perhaps even help to raise money for other makeovers. I do hope you will check it out at: http://www.katillacshack.com/

AND thanks to Beverly for bringing this to our attention. To see more Pink Saturday and uplifting stories, please check out: http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/

And Now...

On this Spectacular Pink Saturday, it is my honor to pay tribute to my son, who is, without a doubt, one terrific human being and a fantastic comic/graphic artist. Even through the difficulties and disabilities of muscular dystrophy, he keeps a positive attitude and shows fortitude beyond his years. He has a great sense of humor as you can see in his Kat Nap comics and keeps us in smiles daily.

With that said, I would now like to introduce you to Kelly from kat-nap.com. Of course, she just so happens to be my favorite kat in the kat-nap series so far. Kelly isn't the first female feline but only few know of the first. Perhaps “Maggie” will be featured some time in the future.

In the meantime, please feel free to mosey on over to http://www.kat-nap.com/ and find out which kat might be your favorite.
*********************************************************************************
And here are some proud moments for me as his number 1 fan:

Two years ago: Kat Nap bookmarks were created and passed out at the 2008 PAX convention. You could also find them at a local comic book store.

One year ago: Kat Nap cards were featured in a new card game at Wagon Webcomic Battle. The first set has already sold out. We hope the new revised set will be available soon.

This year: Kat-nap is officially published in Cat Odes and is now available for purchase. Here is what is says at kat-nap.com: Cat-Odes! which features an exclusive Kat-Nap comic is now available at http://dapshow.com/product/cat-odes.
This book is great – especially for all you cat lovers out there but what is really awesome is that 75% of the proceeds go to the ASPCA! I give a holler out for that!

New pins will be given out at PAX 2010! Yes, there are still bookmarks available and will also be given out there as well.

Now please enjoy your Pink Saturday and don’t forget to take time to indulge in the simple pleasures of life! ttfn! : )

  1. Good Morning Joan,

    I know you didn't intend to make me cry today, however I cried my eyes out listening to the video about Colette. I also visited your son's website. I like Kelly kitty, she's very stylish. The comic strips are cute and "puny." Thanks for the inspirational and cleansing beginning to my "Pink Saturday1"
    Warmly, Linda

  3. Happy Pink Saturday, Joan. Thank you for making Pink Saturday special, and for taking part in this day of celebration and thanks.

    There truly are miracles going on all around us every day. We just have to open our hearts in acceptance.

    Thank you for sharing you very talented son with us. I agree that Kelly is quite wonderful. Please give your son my congratulations.
