Thrillers in Tanka - Book 1 in Cat Ellington's The Arts Series - Set for March 2025 Release

 

"Evil Company"

The crows are preening,

while darkness plumes, veiling light;

the hosts are born of error,

and their deeds corrupt—

even the morally sound.

(Chuckling) I'm having too much fun making up Tanka poems for the promotions leading up to the release date of The Arts of Literary Criticism: Thrillers in Tanka, Book 1 – the first issue in my latest series, The Arts.

March 27, 2025, is on the horizon and will be here before we know it, baby. So I'ma keep it goin', you know, by making up Tanka poems that are not included in the book as a bridge gap until the release date.

And we're walking ... And we walkin' ...

The Discographies of Cat Ellington at Muso.AI

 

I got word today that Muso.ai (Verified Music Credits) has laid out all of my existing music credits, and I think it's groovy, groovy—like my psychedelic cat. (Smiles)

If you enjoy studying music credits, I'll say Muso.AI is a database you need to check out. Thank you, team Muso.AI!
