Christmas Cheer and Thankful Things
Well, readers, it’s really important at this time of year to keep up our Christmas cheer, and so, courtesty of Cute Overload, a tickle puppy! (Santa, can you bring me one for my stocking?)
Thankful for many things in 2010:
–Finding a wonderful publisher, Kitsune Books, for my second book, She Returns to the Floating World. I just noticed I was wishing for this back (an enthusiastic publisher for my second book) in the Christmas post of 2009…thanks universe!
–Moving back to the Northwest, which for now, feels like home. And has lots of beautiful trees, great doctors and shopping, and a plethora of bookstores, despite, yes, the near-constant rain.
–A wonderful husband, who tackled gluten-free cooking this year after my wheat-allergy problems, and who continues to be my number one poetry fan!
–My friends, who cheer me up every day (today I got a little robot in the mail, in honor of my new manuscript, “The Robot Scientist’s Daughter”) and the new friends I got to make in California.
–My family, though they are far away, who are relatively healthy and happy this year.
Pretty soon I’ll be writing up my 2011 resolutions! I am wishing all of you health, peace, love, and all kinds of good poetry this winter season!
