MERRY CHRISTMAS!

All donations have been tabulated, the names are all in Santa's list, and the compilation has been placed into his hands for delivery!

Our final total was $1083 raised for the USMC Toys4Tots program. Thanks to contributions from writers, banner makers, betas, and the many people who donated to the charity, there will be many more smiles on Christmas morning. I can never thank everyone enough for all of their time, talent and support. Special thanks to Mavvy for helping build the compilation, Jill for keeping the banners and summaries in order, and the many people who tweeted, re-tweeted, and shared the links on Facebook - I don't dare name names, at risk of forgetting someone. All of my cajoling and wordy blog posts would have been for nothing without all of you.

We'll be back again next year, and every year after as long as there are writers willing to write and readers willing to donate to read them. You are all fabulous and I truly love each and every one of you.

So until next year, as Santa prepares to leave on his rounds-  

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
