Hello, hi, how are you. Finally we get to meet in person...rings out from every voice in the room.

Now, imagine...

That together we're all gathered at a grand hall, the walls lined with shelves of books that tell the story of our literary journey. Each book a memory, each chapter a shared experience. The air is filled with the scent of new and old pages mixed with the fresh pine of a Christmas tree in the corner, twinkling with fairy lights.

A band is on stage, tuning their instruments, ready to serenade us with beautiful music. The melody starts softly, intertwining with our laughter and conversation. We dance, not just as individuals, but as a celebration of the stories that brought us together.

We cherish the moment, acknowledge it; for finally we all have met, disembodied faces now have bridged the distance and become a breathing, touchable reality. A real face to a name as we joyfully reminisce on the magic of the season.

The clock strikes midnight, and we raise our glasses in a toast, cheering not just for the new year, but for the bonds we've forged through the written word. The music swells, and we move as one, stepping into the future with joy and anticipation.

In that moment, the world outside fades away, leaving just us, the music, and the promise of new adventures waiting to be written. This is the dream, where our literary journey culminates in a night of celebration and togetherness, ushering in the new year with hope and happiness. 🎶📚

Happy holidays. Happy Kwanzaa. Merry Christmas with all the hopes for health, prosperity and happiness in the new year and always.

Happy New year everyone!!!
