Merryness.

Just a quick happy Christmas type post before signing off till 2009. We hope everyone received their copies of Discovering a Comet and More Micro-Fiction in time for Christmas. If you're awaiting any orders, everything outstanding was sent this morning, so hopefully those should all be with you shortly.

Comp-wise, the Mostly Life competition winners will be up on www.mostlylife.com early in the new year: we'll be sending out a newsletter as soon as that's occurred. The Poetry Competition is still being judged and has been slightly beset with computer-related issues (nothing severe: just a bit delaying) ... but we should be all set to announce the results in February 2009. Keep an eye open. And that's about that.

Have a jovial season.

All at Leaf.
