    1. Fantastic story -- good luck with 2018's entry -- and here's to thinking more like an artist in the new year! Love that decision.

  18. My second of the month was a limited edition of the 19th-century Christmas ghost story "The Gerrard Street Mystery" (Constance Bay, ON: Three Bats, 2017). Recommended!

    If chapbooks of short stories count, "The Gerrard Street Mystery" boosts my count to nine.
