Who Is Mistral Dawn?

Mistral Dawn is a thirty-something gal who has lived on both coasts of the US but somehow never in the middle. She currently resides in the Southeast US with her kitty cats (please spay or neuter! :-)) where she works as a hospital drudge and attends graduate school. Taken By The Huntsman is her first effort at writing fiction and if it is well received she has ideas for several more novels and short-stories in this series. Please feel free to visit her on FaceBook or drop her a line at mistralkdawn@gmail.com

#Agent Thoth's #Personal Log: Day 1337


Hey Everyone! 😊

Agent Thoth discusses more of the trials and tribulations associated with living with hominids. Incidentally, if you've missed Agent Thoth's earlier entries, you can find them here: Thoth's Journal

Agent Thoth's Personal Log

Day Thirteen-Hundred-Thirty-Seven:
I do have to note that the warmest season does compensate for the discomfort of the temperatures by offering a greater variety of small arthropods to study. The arthropods are also more active during this season due to the warmer temperatures. However, the environmental controls that my hominid-servant employees to maintain the internal temperature of my domicile at a comfortable level interferes with my studies in this area somewhat.

The temperature differential between the inside and the outside of my domicile seems to discourage some of the small arthropods from making any migration within. This means that, in order to maximize my opportunities for study, I would have to venture outside my domicile. But the outside temperatures are so oppressive for me that to even contemplate an escape attempt in order to more closely study the most active arthropods exhausts me. I believe that, even if I were to succeed, I would be so drained by the heat that I would be unable to engage in any meaningful work. 

Therefore, I have made no serious attempts. I can’t help but wonder, however, if I am staying true to the spirit of my DPCIL mission. Am I simply acceding to the inescapable demands of biology, or is this truly laziness on my part? Either way, I cannot say that I am in any way motivated to change the status quo. For the moment, at least.


I have to agree with Thoth, hot weather is exhausting! 😉 You may have noticed that Agent Thoth has a new look. I hope you like his new picture as much as I do, but I'd love to hear your thoughts, either way. Feel free to let me know what you think in the comments. 😉 Happy reading, everyone!
