It’s Fabulous Furry Friday with a NEW cartoon! (I can’t resist a good “scandal”)

One of the most fun things about panda satire is the ability to make fun of things that, quite frankly, aren’t very funny.  Also, you can “imply” things about non-panda related events by portraying it as pandas doing stuff. Just what am I implying here? I’m not telling!

Scandal in our nation’s capitol? I’m shocked!

"It was dark....there were men in masks...."

“It was dark….there were men in masks….”

Thanks for joining the pandas for launch week!  If you can’t access the createspace e-store, you can still find The Panda Chronicles Book 2: Wheel…of…Pandas! on Amazon!   Huzzah!  I think this discount code only works on createspace:

 Thanks for joining in the fun!  Stay tuned for news of a book signing/launch party at our beloved Langley bookstore, Moonraker Books.

Woo hoo! More Pandas (and Cats!) for Launch week of Book 2 of the Panda Chronicles!

As I noted yesterday, I am humbled and pleased by the wonderful reviews that some of YOU, panda satire fans extraordinaire, have shared on Amazon. I admit (like most authors, even those who aren’t pandas) to having a love /hate relationship with Amazon. I adore my local bookshop, Moonraker Books, in beautiful downtown Langley, and do 99% of my book buying there.  But, Langley is a small town, and if I want to achieve WORLD PANDA SATIRE DOMINATION, not to mention encourage the MacArthur Foundation to add Panda Satire to their list of supported genres, well, we have to take our pandas on the road, as it were.

I hope you will add your voice to those who have already stepped up and said, “Yes!  We love panda satire!  Be the Bear!  Where are the cuppycakes?” Thanks!

Also, I’ve been around and about on the Internet, this time writing a guest post for the fabulous blog, Cordelia Calls it Quits.   I love Cordelia’s posts, which speak to my inner panda (also she has a thing for pandas as well, so, I was thrilled to be asked to write something for her. Check it out here!

And now, will Mehitabel escape from the panda kindergarten?

Run,kitty, run!

Run,kitty, run!

Don’t forget!  It’s launch week here at The Panda Chronicles and you can still use this code

to get 20% off your book when you buy it from my e-store!

Oh yes, it IS Mr Wu Wednesday!

Would we even consider getting out of bed on Wednesdays, were it not for Mr. Wu?  We would not! Who would think that such a small panda could capture so many hearts?  Heck, I’d kiss him if his mother was nowhere around. While at the panda convention, which took place on Mr Wu’s home turf, the San Diego Zoo, one of the panda staff suggested that Yun Zi, Mr Wu’s resident big brother, is your typical teenager.  Another of our pandateers suggested that perhaps he would ride a skateboard and have an affinity for video games.  At least he doesn’t wear his pants hanging down.

Oh, wait.  he doesn’t wear pants…he’s a panda.

It is so hard for a small panda to prevail....

Hey!  It’s still launch week!  Do you have your copy of The Panda Chronicles Book 2:Wheel…of…Pandas! yet?

Wheel...of ...PANDAS! It's HERE!!!!!!!!

Wheel…of …PANDAS! It’s HERE!!!!!!!!

I can’t believe I almost forgot that it is fabulous furry Friday!

I do have an excuse, and you probably don’t want the details, since it involves things that come out of one’s nose…OK, I’ll stop there.  Suffice it to say, that my head and brain are a bit clogged at the moment. So, hmmmmm….what cartoon to choose for a fuzzy headed day….?

Nothing is quicker than a bunny, unless it is the panda kindergarten in bunny suits!

Nothing is quicker than a bunny, unless it is the panda kindergarten in bunny suits!

Seems like panda kindergarteners in bunny suits is a good thing for a Good Friday…. (Easter being a chocolate holiday, and all)

Today, you are a bear.

Today, you are a bear.

…And in the interests of being ecumenical, we bring you The Bear Mitzvah, since in addition to being Easter, it is also Passover.

Have a wonderful Friday.  It is sunny here on Whidbey Island, which you will enjoy if your house hasn’t just slid down an embankment.

Be the Bear!

Don’t forget to tune in Monday for the official Book Launch of The Panda Chronicles Book 2: Wheel…of…Pandas!

Did I forget it is Mr Wu Wednesday? Heck, NO!

As I said on Monday, I am a bit behind the time due to high level meetings with Pandas Worldwide at our annual conference.  Fortunately, I had managed to smuggle a transcript of the keynote address, delivered by none other than Mr. Wu!  And now, through the magic of the internet, I can share it with you now.  Huzzah!

What will that little bear say next?  Poor mountain village, indeed.

Oh that Mr. Wu!

And in case you are on the edge of your seat, waiting for news of The Panda Chronicles Book 2: Wheel…of…PANDAS! you do not have long to wait.  I am planning to release the bears (so to speak) on April Fools day and there will be special discounts for launch week.  Huzzah!  Stay tuned right here to this very spot to learn how you can get your book and have more panda kindergarten antics at your fingertips.

It’s Monday and there is no new cartoon…..

…but I have a very good excuse!  I was at the San Diego Zoo Pandamonium Convention, where pandas from several countries all came together to discuss issues that are affecting pandas.  Sort of a Panda World Domination Summit, you might say.  Needless to say, there were cuppycakes (and quite good ones too!) and a wonderful time was had by all.

So that I don’t leave your Monday panda-less, here is one of my favorite cartoons (and it’s in Book 2 of The Panda Chronicles: Wheel…of…Pandas!, which is scheduled for release on April 1st, and that’s no foolin’ !)

Will Mehitabel ever free herself of pandas?  Stay tuned!

Will Mehitabel ever free herself of pandas? Stay tuned!

And because I’m just “that kind of bear,” here is another cartoon that appears in the book.  I’m hoping that someone will right this terrible wrong before the next round of MacArthur Fellowships:

Why IS there no MacArthur Fellowship for Panda Satire, anyway?

Why IS there no MacArthur Fellowship for Panda Satire, anyway?

Stay tuned for the debut of The Panda Chronicles Book 2: Wheel…of…PANDAS! with special launch week discounts for faithul followers of The Panda Chronicles!  We will also reveal (on Mr Wu Wednesday) some of the stuff we learned at the Panda Convention!  (And we will print the transcript of the stirring keynote address, delivered by Mr. Wu himself, about being the youngest member of the great San Diego Panda Dynasty!  There wasn’t a dry eye in the house!)
