I wish I could write a Christmas letter like you do. Even doctor's visits seem amusing. I am going to try writing a letter with your example, but somehow life always gets too serious. If you never see one from me, I want to wish you a wonderful Christmas season and all the joys of the new year.

I did enjoy your tongue in cheek Christmas newsletter. I really have a hard time believing you never wrote fiction before. You seem a natural about it. Great Segway into fanstory. I enjoyed your playful letter. Good luck in the contest. Gretchen

Thanks for so many laughs and for an 'honorable' mention at the end of you 'Newsletter.' I skipped all the other entries but read yours for comic relief. Especially loved the health report and the count of your pills. Here's hoping you finally win!

A lovely Christmas letter, and I feel I have seen another side of you. I love the wit and humour you present here in your reality based offering of news. My husband wants me to write ours this afternoon- and I can't help but wonder if anyone really cares. Lol. Best wishes for your contest entry.

    This is for the far-flung family members who we never see, as they are hundreds or thousands of kilometres away. Lol. Preliminary draft done, photos added as well. All good.

From one who loves you just because, I assert that you are on the right or proper course. As I am not qualified to teach you anything I will not even bother to try. Just know, I admire your work and will continue to read everything you write.

I'm giving you six stars for the humor in this letter. I do love a person who can make jokes at his own expense. As I get older, seventy-six at last count, I see a lot more humor in my own life. Hey, good luck in the contest.

Hello Terry,
This was great. I love to read funny things. My wife has a cousin who does a yearly newsletter. You'd think they were living in heaven or some such thing. Apparently nothing ever goes wrong in their lives. Country clubs and exclusive get togethers are the norm for them. Of course all the kids are geniuses and jocks. By the time I get done reading, I'm ready to puke. Nonetheless, I'll take my slightly off kilter life any day. Thanks for sharing buddy.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

That is the kind of newsletter I love to get: All fibbin' and fun. You are a remarkable person and I love your attitude about writing for the fun of it, and not for financial gain. If we make that as our first priority, and early enough in our career, we will achieve the second despite our efforts to the contrary. Have a marvelous, merry and healthy holiday, my friend.

Jay
