Snappy little humorous snippets about and by animals. Tiny nuggets of wry observations in haiku form by an animal lover. Okay, to be honest, more than a few frustrated observations by this same animal lover. Yes, indeed, there is a pile of parental advice to these dogs and cats--which the creatures completely ignore. Then, of course, the cats and dogs must butt in with their own opinions, also spoken in haiku style. All delightfully decorated with animal art by Roxanna Groves.

This review is from: DogKu, CatKu and WhatHaveU (Kindle Edition)
DogKu, CatKu and WhatHaveU We love our pets and we love our pets' quirks. This is a sincere and hilarious treatment of my favorite subject -- dogs, cats, and other pets -- all written in the form of Haiku. How cool is that! If you are looking for a unique gift for a cat or dog lover, look no further! Michelle Shy is Snarkypoo! I consider DogKu, CatKu and WhatHaveU to be a highly evolved and contemporary version of the ancient Japanese poetry form. This will inspire you and crack you up! |

Michelle Shy Biography

I am a comedian, performance artist and writer because a career counselor once told me I would never be able to hang onto a straight job.
Waaaaay too many pets live with me. I have 10 cats, 4 dogs, 4 birds, 1 fish, 1 rabbit and 2 lizards. Some of these pets are already dead; they reside in Tupperware in the back closet. The remainder reside right in the middle of my bed. Tomorrow I hope to get 2 more dogs.
If you meet me in person, you will think, "Hmm...gorgeous. Nuts. And a pain in the butt."
I'm the writer of:
Snark
Humor
Poetry
Comedy
...and...Snark
Background: I've been fired from 79 jobs. The stories I've lived in these weird and wonderful jobs--machinist, actor, filmmaker, software engineer, acting coach, executive management consultant, film festival director, envelope stuffer, chicken plucker, stripper, pothole counter, necktie folder, reporter, cookie packer, tool & die maker, life coach, comedy traffic school instructor--found themselves expressed in nasty poems and sad comedy routines with elements of insanity.
Oh, yes, and slasher screenplays--a few of which are in discussions to be acquired by film producers. Yay!
Michelle says:
"I met Burt Danet several years ago when I was working on film and media events to empower young people to change the world. Burt’s vision is so all-encompassing and loving; I have always admired the work he and his partners are doing on ABC4All. I’m honored to be a member of the Healing Portal, hoping laughter can help us heal…and, more…hoping laughter can help us become active! Big hugs to everyone on the team!"
