There are, at least for me, times when I am in ‘output’ mode and times when I’m in ‘input’ mode. This holiday, it’s more of the latter. Other holidays found me in more of an ‘output’ mode, so I’ve disinterred (dare I say “resurrected”?) some of those old pieces and republished them. They are:
and, on a darker note, 2006’s Death of a Torture Victim.
I also have a Christmas Mix playlist on Spotify (I know, they rip off musicians. I won’t make a habit of it.)
Despite my relative silence this year, I want you to know that I wish everybody on this list joy, and love, and peace, in whatever forms those things manifest for you. I am sincerely grateful for you. I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know. Whatever we must face in the coming year, I take comfort in knowing we’ll face it together.
