About FishingCat
FishingCat is a free, open source application to help authors
record and track information about their writing, their
submissions, and the markets they're interested in.
Fishing cats live in wetland areas in India and tropical Asia.
They are about twice the size of house cats, with a stocky build,
short tail, and gray-brown fur marked with handsome black spots
and streaks. They have webbed paws, and ultra-thick coats to keep
water away from their skin. They're strong swimmers, and will
even dive into the water after a juicy fish.
We hope that this application will help you, like the fishing cat,
to dive boldly in after your prey, the elusive letter of
acceptance.
