Viola Beadleton’s

Dear Readers,

Hasn’t it been a glorious summer? I have been quite distracted by the balmy weather and out and about to all manner of places. I know all of you appreciated having the first volume of my Compendium to add to your enjoyment of recent months, because many of you have written to me to tell me this.

Sadly the rain has now come and the days are getting colder, but all is not lost. The waning of the warm weather is leaving a space for the creative spirit to fill. And that space is generously being given a home in Volume Two of the Compendium.

I look forward to receiving all your submissions and to creating a new issue that will chase away any winter blues!

Yours with Warmth and Sincerity,

Viola
