Happy New Year It’s that time of the year when families come together to celebrate Christmas and see in the New Year. We hope it has been a joyous occasion at your house – although I do know there are times when some of us wonder why we bother.
The beginning of December seemed so far away from Christmas that, here at Eaglemount Books, thoughts of a newsletter and Christmas just did not share the same space at the same time, so the December newsletter went out without a Christmas message. Apologies… blame it on old age. Everything at Eaglemount Books appears to have ground to a halt. Both authors, Neive Denis and Kayla Danoli, have downed tools for the moment. Hopefully they will regain momentum sometime soon and there will be something more productive to report next month.
