    Thank you, Cara!
    I've been wanting to share this one for a while but had to wait for the anthology to come out, which was launched 5 Nov.

    Thank you, Margaret. I've actually done one of my collage-style haiga for this one. Must get around to scanning those some day!

    Wonderful words... and it is wonderful that they will appear in Ice Driver.

    Thank you, Teri.
    I love that name - Ice Diver. I received my copy a few days ago but haven't had a chance to have a good look over it yet.
