"In wildness is the preservation of the world" --Henry David Thoreau.

No, not wilderness, wildness.

Here, for Christmas, is "The Best Gift of All."

And hopefully, the last time we'll have to feature "Have a Happy Covid Christmas," although we should have added, "or other respiratory infections, please get vaccinated as a favor to us old folks."

A new short story, another chapter from "The Seal of Kunduon" named "The Leaf and Pig," in praise of several old haunts of Chris's, is in What's New?

Another new short story, "A Heart Shaped Rock," can be found there, too.

On "The Silver Splitter" front, we're still looking for a great location, before we start casting.

Enjoy!
