MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Merry Christmas to you and to everyone you hold dear. I'm sending you every good wish for health and happiness this holiday season--and may 2026 be our best year ever.

A girl can hope, right?.

Anyway, I'll be posting a much overdue update following the holidays.

In the meantime, thank you sincerely for your kindness and support this year. Thank you for your patience as well. It was not the year I planned, that's for sure, but I seem to say that every year now. It feels like a stage of life thing. There are just a lot of non-creative things to deal with that I never figured into my calculations for the future. But nothing stays the same, and this stage too will pass.

I hope you enjoyed this year's calendar and thank you so much to Christine Danse, Steve Leonard, Byron Beach, and Natasha Chesterbrook for your wonderful contributions. You four were the best part of this year's calendar, no question!

Oh! I'll figure out who won what next week and post it on the blog, so be sure to check back in a week or so.
