My Best Side #SundaySelfie

So I've decided that this is my best side so I'm showing it off for today's selfie. 

But wait, my other side is just as lovely. I am after all a cat. Feline beauty is purrfect, right?

We're joining The Cat On My Head for the Sunday Selfies Blog Hop

And we're joining Four-Legged Furballs & 15andmeowing for the Friendly Fill-Ins hop. 

FRIENDLY FILL-INS 
1. ___________________ taught me that ______________________. 
2. I wish I could remember __________________________________. 
3. I could be convinced _________ only if _________. 
4. I had to delay _________ because _________.

Marie
1. Life has taught me that it's so f*****g hard. I'm just too sensitive for this world.
2. I wish I could remember my life before age four. I don't think I can, though.
3. I could be convinced to write more novels only if I was paid an advance. Writing novels takes a long time and it took years to write mine and I've nothing to show for it. 
4. I had to delay so many things that need doing because of grief. My brother dying suddenly at almost 52 has been a huge shock. It's been alost a year but I will never get over it. I get overwhelmed by everything and can barely function most days. But I try for my mum and Athena's sake.

Athena
1. Mum taught me that I can get anything I want from her. There is nothing she wouldn't do for me. I chose her well!
2. I wish I could remember my birth mother.  
3. I could be convinced that Mum is happy only if I knew she was. I make her happy though. I'm sure of it. There is nothing like pure soulmate love.
4. I had to delay my afternoon nap today because I had to help Mum with this post.

Beautiful selfie and effects Athena. Thank you for participating in the fill-ins, great answers except I am sorry you are in so much emotional pain. I understand about the novels. You are an excellent writer and deserve an advance to write, but publishing is such a hard game to get representation. It seems to be who you know and not talent based. XO
