My dear friends, I want to most sincerely thank you for another year with Long Story Short! I am so happy to have these discussions, to see back the loyal participants and welcome new ones. We may have read not so many stories but none of them was a disappointment. The best story you voted for was In a season by calm weather by Ray Bradbury. I am totally with you there! In the coming year may we have more good books to read, more good people to meet and more good things to celebrate! Traditionally I cannot resist bringing another New Yorker cover as a greeting card.
