Merry Christmas! Love and Joy come to you, and to you... Well, not sure about the wassail this year. But I do sincerely wish you every happiness this holiday season and all through the New Year!
For the last three (four?) years, I've had high hopes that the New Year will be better than the former, and for the last three (four?) years, the New Year has been worse. Significantly worse. So I'm tempering my hopes for 2025. But I am hopeful. And there's still plenty to be grateful for, not least the fact that, for whatever reason, I'm super energetic and highly productive right now. I'm feeling creative in a way I haven't for a long time. I have no idea why this would be, but so it is.
I want to thank all the wonderful and talented people who helped make up the calendar this year: Ulla, Byron, Natasha, Meg, and Almathea. Your gifts were truly appreciated! The calendar would not be nearly as enjoyable without your contributions.
Thank you, also, to everyone who took the time to read and comment and enjoy our festive offerings! And, of course, thank you for continuing to support my writing whether through buying my books or subscribing to my Patreon. It is all very much appreciated.
I'll be sharing our winners in the next day or so!
Wishing you and yours a lovely day. Merry Christmas.
