GalleyCat reader Kristen Britain (author of the Green Rider series) sent us the first ever picture of Schrodinger’s Amazon Box: “Attached is a photo of my late Maine Coon kitten, Earl Grey, working very hard as a manuscript cozy (manuscript for book 3 is in the box–not an advertisement for Amazon or anything). He was a rescue and the sweetest kitty I’ve ever known.”

Next, reader M. David Hornbuckle (a writer at large for mediabistro’s Avant Guild and author of The Salvation of Billy Wayne Carter & Other Stories sent this picture of his indispensable writing companion, Frankie.
