Work happens in the cool of the morning, come inside in the afternoon. I write in the morning in the winter as it is cold here at the very feet of The Blue Ridge Mountains. How do you make yourself come inside to write?Ĭoming inside depends on the season. You love being outdoors, and yet, you are an incredibly prolific writer. Vain Pewter II is never slender but also exhibits high self-regard. Too many people enjoy the characters plus, in my small way, I hope they move people to go to shelters or donate. When the original Sneaky Pie died it didn’t occur to me to stop the series. All my rescues: horses, cats, dogs and foxhounds live long, useful lives. The original Pewter made it to twenty-four.

What was it like for you to have to train a new cat to take over the important job of co-author? Was there ever a moment when you thought you would end the series after the original Sneaky Pie passed away? I’m assuming that the original Sneaky Pie is no longer with you. Murphy mystery came out in 1991 – that would make Sneaky Pie 25 years old. I’m delighted that I had a chance to ask Rita Mae Brown a few questions. Tall Tail is available from Amazon and everywhere books are sold. While both authors excel at portraying immensely likeable animal and human characters, I suspect that the animal scenes are written by Sneaky Pie rather than Rita Mae – after all, who else but a cat would have such insights into the limitations of the human mind? My favorite part of all the books in the series is the interplay between the animal characters.

Rita Mae Brown is often accused of being preachy in the newer installments of the series, and she certainly isn’t shy about weaving her personal views into the book, but I found that interesting rather than off putting. Even with some skimming through the historical sections, it was fascinating to me to see how the two story lines came together in the end. I found the historic parts of the story a bit hard to follow, but thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the book.
