G.K Chesterton and the trials of newsletters

November 28th 2007 in News

G.K. lived before the advent of the computer age which has brought tremendous potential and tremendous frustration. Right now I am raging at my computer over attempting to create my very first newsletter. For some reason, the graphics just won’t show up#@!*  Once I master this little glitch, which can send me over the edge so easily, you are likely to recive a copy of the quaterly newletter with updates about my writing, links for student writers and links to generally cool sites about writing, fantasy, myth and words. There’s a button to unsubscribe at any time.

So, to put me back into a better spirit and perhaps soothe some of the frustrations of your day, let’s turn back to G.K and one of my very favorite Christmas poems . Hope it will give us all some perspective on the season before we are consumed by our consumer frenzies.

Apologies to Emily D., (the word should really be “frigate”), but she might agree with the sentiment. In the bustle of Christmas gifting, consider giving a signed copy of a book. Your local independent bookstore is a good place to start. They often have a local authors section. And, of course, you can order signed [...]
