The new Advent thing for yesterday is up. I feel it ought to come with a warning, though, because it touches on what happened in Connecticut yesterday, though it does fit a prompt I was given. So, if you don't feel as I do about that and about the issue of guns in general (and many don't), you might want to give number 14 a miss.

I'm debating doing a retroactive 13, if I can get enough ahead--what do people feel? Is it worth it, or have I missed the chance? I'll do better next year, promise...

And I have to thank, once again, everyone who has helped me over the sticky patch. I won't say the trouble is over, but things are definitely easier at the moment. You are all amazing, and I will keep striving to please you with my meagre skills every day.

Thank you.

Thank you for this.
W and I watched the news today and couldn't really find an approach to them, no pictures to imagine, or words. Yours works in a way.
I would say it's beautiful if it was about something that happened only in a book.

Been catchin' up & enjoyin' 'em. I'm impressed with the Americanness of "SEVEN BILLION GHOSTS"; nice job wi' that, guv, besides the story and so on. :-)

I got "holm-oak" almost at once, but the other name eludes me. Was it anything to do with this?

Do you know, I know I had a terribly clever reason for making him Edgecombe, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was. If it comes back to me I shall let you know.

If you're still looking for prompts, one just occurred to me: "The Ghost Of Christmas Alongside" (aka "the one Dickens left out 'cos he never could get his head around the idea of parallel universes") =:o}
