"It's the emptiest and yet the fullest of all human messages: 'Good-bye.' ” - Kurt Vonnegut

Howard and I are leaving New York today, with fond farewells to all the friends, colleagues, and family members who have made the last month such a delightful, stimulating, and richly creative time. Thank you all.

Photo above: A stroll through Times Square on our last night in the city, with Howard and our NYC hosts (and dear friends) Ellen Kushner and Delia Sherman.

Below:  A candle for me to wish on last night.... And may the wish come true.

I'll be back in my Devon office (and back on this blog) on Monday, Dec. 10. Till then, have a very good week, everyone. Be well. And be magical.
