Wonderful news from out of my home town today. I received a letter from the woman in charge of the Be a Santa to a Senior program I posted about a couple of weeks ago.

…Welcome to my corner of the internet, where on any given day you might find me sharing a miniature story inspired by a self-portrait from my forest wanderings, a sketch of a faerie maiden, pondered scribblings related to daily magic, and much more.
Come sit for a while and stay, stretch your legs, fins, cloven hooves, whatever type of faerie you may be. Listen to stories, tell some of your own, learn about your hostess, and the mythmaker friends she shares here as well. Step into a painting, adorn your antlers with flowers and acorns for a theme party, and play at make believe: a time-honored tradition that we’re never too old to indulge in.
Celebrate wonder and imagination in all its many forms.
