Many thanks for all your messages of support and suggestions over the Holidays. It is great to see the creativity gradually peeking through as the town of Twyckwick slowly awakens. It has been a buzz to watch how people react when they realise that those memories they took so much for granted can take on a whole new meaning as we build up the stories and content. There is still an incredible journey ahead, but I hope everyone will enjoy themselves and what we do. I'm anticipating many months yet before we are feeling comfortable with it all. And that is OK - we have time.
I have never had so much on so I figure I'll just work away as I can. The Members of Mountain Mist Productions have all been great and they know our plans and we'll all get there in due course. I must say that some of the Members really did well last year; I keep re-inforcing that what they do on the outside is by far more important than what they do on the inside. Some just like to be part of the family and they go with the flow and that is OK too.
The biggest surprise has been the Radio Station. I sure learned a lot in a hurry and the fact that FM Radio is somewhat of a luxury in some areas was a total surprise to me. We'll gradually develop this and obviously we can't live-stream programs, but we have already made some great friends through linking. We are really looking forward to more podcasting as time allows and of course we hope to do some interviews and readings of our works.
Still more book manuscripts coming in and soon we'll be set up with books on Twyckwick. We can feel the old energy coming back but I am the first to point out that we can't do everything at once and that is OK and as I said, we have time....
Do keep an eye on The Bulletin to keep up with where we are at with everything. I am steadfastly trying to ignore pleas for more drivel in that area. I mean, isn't there enough on the Internet already?
This month we will start to move some content over to Twyckwick and we'll introduce more characters and guests. All looking very positive from where I stand. The whole "old-fashioned" and "retro" thing looks like it will not only be fun, but hopefully it will also give some relief from a lot of what we would all really rather not have to think about and that is just fine by me.
Keep on twyckwicking down the mountain path and have a Happy Valentine's Day!
