Last year, I revamped a Neil Gaiman New Year's Wish graphic I'd created the year before. For this year's quoto, I'm going with this wish from 2014, and pairing it with a crow photo from Valentine's Day 2017 - "Be kind to yourself in the year ahead. Remember to forgive yourself, and to forgive... Continue Reading →
MM – Making mistakes 2016
For the last Monday post of 2015, I did a graphic with a Neil Gaiman quote.

Thankfully, this appeared in my NaNoMail (this is only the beginning - click on the link to read the rest of his wise words) -... Continue Reading →
FF – I heart Amanda and Neil
No surprise to anyone that knows me that I heart Neil Gaiman.

I will admit that when I... Continue Reading →
