Wandering up Knocklofty and musing on the joys of translation.

(You have not missed #507; I miscalculated!)

Wishing you all an inspired and gentle New Year.

Now that the Altjahrswoche is ending I am thinking I might introduce a Neujahrswoche, or two or three for more reflection.

Preparing to meet my in-the-flesh writing group.

Sitting on my back stoop in the rain and finding a lost treasure.

Editing in under the oak and reflecting on letting go in this Altjahrswoche.

A strange Boxing Day, waiting but not seeing anyone, until finally becoming immersed in some editing.

500 Today! Mole celebrates on a hot Christmas Day.

Remembering that once Christmas was my main writing time.

An unexpected end to my walk on Knocklofty; and feeling the change in the air as everyone gears up for Christmas and down for holidays.
