So great to see you here again! Your fab writing has been sorely missed. Screw the Gremlins!! You've got this; I mean you have REALLY got this!!! Your writing is a gift. Your adorable illustrations, the same; you, and your huge heart, your compassionate soul, and most wonderful sense of humor are so greatly appreciated!!!

Nice to hear from you again, Kristine. I love your turns of phrase. Please keep 'em coming!

Funny thing is, your posts DO have "clever words, remarkable sentence structure and the rhythm and style of a seriously committed word wizard". But even if they didn't, it's true: perfectionism is the devil.

So glad you had a chance to boggle those ‘little buggers’. I agree, your writing and art are gifts.

Thanks so much for sharing.

Hurrah, your are back! I am so happy to be reading W & S again 😁 Your unique style is wonderful, and is for me, what makes it so fun and thought provoking to read!! Being imperfect (as we all are), and putting our ideas 'out there', is a beautiful thing... it takes courage and grace, and you have both 💛

Oh, those gremlins. Kick them to the curb! They are like the mean girls of every high school - full of sound and fury and signifying nothing (with apologies to Mr. Shakespeare). Can't wait for more stories!!

Also, pro tip: we don't care about the clever words and rhythm and style and all that crap. We just want to hear the stories and spend a little time with you.

So nice to have you back. Keep wrangling those gremlins so we can hear what you have to say!
