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.
