Click through to see the new masthead

To explain the pictures a little, from left to right:

Candles from the winter solstice to show that from the lengths of darkness light will come; Riley’s zombie drawing because I adore it (recycled from the last masthead); me in a Qantas toilet as we flew to Sydney in December, doing what I usually do during flights which is basically distract myself from a panic attack by doing silly things like practice my ‘Blue Steel’ look (heh); literature and love; an artist’s studio up at Montsalvat, showing if an opportunity goes out the door maybe another will fly through the window instead – persistence is key!

I’m finally feeling a little better this week. I’m attending to an inbox of unanswered emails as well as other matters so if you’re waiting for me to get back to you about something, I do apologise. Send me a reminder if you like.
