I just now made my final choices for my December challenge, haha.
Actually, I visited your thread when it popped up in my Notifications feed, thinking you'd already created some of your posts for 2022. But, of course, you're waiting on the 2022 yearly challenges. 🤣
Haha, fast? If I hadn’t been so tired last night, I would have done it then. D… time difference 😜Yes, exactly! I mean, I could certainly put up some Serial Reader suggestions, but it would be a very short list until I know, what the 2022 yearlies are all about - that will hopefully add to it!
