So another year is over. I really don't know where this one has gone. Wasn't it just June?! On the grand scheme of things, well, it wasn't a fantastic year but it was far from the worst one I've ever had. I didn't end up almost killing myself in a car wreck, like I did in '95, or nearly homeless like I could have been in '09. So I don't have too many complaints, except that far too many of my friends and loved ones went through some pretty bad times this year.

On the bright side, I might almost have gotten back on an even keel with my writing. At least I don't hate absolute everything I've written this year, like I did at the end of 2013, and I'm beginning to think I might still have the knack just a little bit. Also, I've met some really nice people, and gotten some really lovely art and, whatever its faults, the furry community as a whole continues to be pretty good to me. I'm really glad you guys like me and my harem of pretty characters so much, and you all keep being awesome!

Happy New Year to all of you! I'm not going to tell you to be careful out there, because you're all adults and I'm not your mama, but have fun and whether you're going out or staying in, like me, I hope you all have a lovely night!
