Cat
Lindler is a zoologist by education and a writer by inclination.
She won the first writing contest she entered, in third grade
in England, received a gift certificate to the village book store,
and bought three novels by her favorite author of the moment:
Enid Blyton. Six years ago, she took a sabbatical from her zoological
work and sat down to write, not the scientific papers for which
she was noted, but the fascinating world of fiction. But in all
her works, her background surfaces in the form of animals with
distinct personalities who play crucial roles in the story. She
has won many RWA chapter contests and now turned her talents toward
editing and judging as well as writing. She is always surprised
by what her characters say and do, and the unexpected plot twists
and turns.
An admitted
animal-lover and bookaholic, Cat shares her house with three bossy
felines: Bilbo, Bertie, and Eowyn, who are her harshest critics,
and over 7,000 books. She imagines her epitaph as: "Felled
while editing, trapped beneath a literary avalanche. She died
happy and well read."
