I meant to write a very long and thoughtful final post for my month as Writer-in-Residence here, but I’m sick today, so I will just take a moment to thank everyone who so generously contributed and made for such a great, wild month. My contributors amazed and surprised me with their various interpretations of “wild” and there were more than a few actual wild animals featured, which made me happy! If you missed out on anything, you’re in luck, everything resides now in the archives here: so you can read all the great December stuff and other greatnesses as well.

Huge thanks to:

Very special thanks to Steve Himmer, for giving me this chance and for all his help with the technical aspects of my postings this month. And, of course, to the readers. Happy New Year, everyone.
