Hi Dear AAPA! Fern & I are right here amidst the last Picks of the year. And what a long year it has been. This one felt as long as a decade -- making our warm Dec. Bundle feel even more cozy...
Well, Christmas! A whole bunch of us produced cute, cheery Xmas cards! Oh my, just look! We are wished warm wishes from Ron Hylton, Danny & Marsha Kelly, Frank Underwood, John & Peg Carvalho, Dave & Liz Tribby, Clarence Wolfshohl, a most charming postcard booklet from George Harnish, & a most Marey Christmas from Fern & I too!
And looky! Here's even more wonderful stuff in the Bundle...
Our gifted papermaker John Carvalho sent us A Martlet's Tales Volume 22, "All Eyes to Heaven," a story that brought Fern & I such a warm smiley afternoon....
And still smiling...we have Sean Wilmot's Philamot magazine for Dec. 2022 with a Burma Shave poem, cleverly laid out to carry us through the pages!!! Plus an interesting collection of good stuff to read.
And finally Fern & I humbly offer 2 brand new short stories from The Mareyland Register: "Always" & "Real"! For AAPA'ers wishing to write, I have learned that the more you write for the Bundle, the better writer you become! And so, at the occasion of our last Picks of 2022, Fern & I send out so much gratitude to all of AAPA!
And as always... thank you profoundly to ALL who have created Bundle pieces, & to all of AAPA for this precious gift of audience.
Dear Everyone, wishing you all extra good health, much joy, & wonderful days ahead....
Amateur journalism is a unique activity. Amateur journalists publish journals on paper & online & come from many perspectives: from deluxe letterpress printed journals, to Xeroxed newsletters, to artistically designed cards and ephemera. We embrace the spirit of being amateurs – loving what we do for pure joy and not financial gain – while creating top quality journals, zines, and homemade publications.
