A behind-the-scenes glimpse of the writing of The Year of Intelligent Tigers. I recently rediscovered this authorial note-to-self and was mildly amused. It reads: "Tigers in fliers, tigers with tyres. Fix up earlier Tiddles ref. Losing yourself. Tiger descs. from photos. Tigers belong in the zoo. Big = Wang [Chinese: "emperor" - the character is seen in the stripes on some tigers' heads]."

I find "Big = Wang" very amusing, in a Beavis & Butthead way...

Speaking of that book - I still think playing the violin well whilst lying on one's back is psysically impossible. Speaking from experience and all. ;)

... you just made that book sound much dirtier than it actually is. ;-)

I hope it's not because of that silly typo... and now you've given me ideas. ;-)

Tigers belong in the community.

A bit of fearful symmetry there?
