Good news: you can have a short rest from me! I am taking a break. I've got family coming for Christmas, much entertaining to do, a husband and daughters to love, friends to cook for, and a self that also needs a little bit of care and relaxation. I then have a daughter who is going to South Africa on January 5th, for a few months with a documentary film-making company, and I don't want to be blogging when I could be
I will be back in action on Monday January 9th, and I'll be preparing to publish Write a Great Synopsis a week or so later. To whet your appetite, I'll tell you that I've had phenomenal response from the writers who've seen it. Carole Blake, literary agent par excellence, has called it "pure gold."
Meanwhile,
Dear Lovely Blog Readers
Wishing you all a very relaxing
and reviving holiday
and a 2012 which brings
at least as much success
as you deserve
(Those were pics from last winter - I'm hoping we will get nothing like that this year.)
Keep safe, nurture your muses and look after your loved ones.
Happy Christmas
With very best wishes,
Crabbit xx

Happy Christmas, Nicola. And enjoy the break (although it doesn't sound as if it's going to be so relaxing).
Have a happy, non crabbitty Christmas.
Enjoy the change of rhythm and hope some christmas magic leaves its sparkle on top of all your exploits. Happy Christmas and thaks for all your help this year.
Back at'cha Crabbity.
Merry Christmas! Hope you have a good one :)
Thank you, all. I really really do wish you the best possible Christmas. I love Christmas and it makes me very uncrabbity! But I know some people have a tough time and I'm extra aware of that this year as some close friends had a terrible tragedy only three weeks ago, which I'm thinking about a lot. I haven't spoken about it because it's their private grief, but I'm thinking about them and worrying about them.
Most of all I wish everyone a positive 2012.
Have a good one O Crabbit One. Will look forward to you being back in the blogseat in January.
Have a purr-fect Christmas and an even Happurrier New Year. Here's to WAGS!
Have a wonderful festive season and see you in the new year
:)
I hope you have a wonderful family Christmas - thanks for all the advice and crabbitness you've thrown at us this year.
Merry Christmas, Nicola, thanks for all your posts this year!

Thank you very much and right back to you. Enjoy your break, your company, and your holiday.
Nicola. Have a very happy and relaxed Christmas. You have been a continued inspiration throughout the past year. I am so looking forward to Write a Great Synopsis. It couldn't have come at a better time for me.
"Carole Blake, literary agent par excellence, has called it "pure gold."
Oooh! I'm a huge fan of Carole and her Twitter wisdom (not to mention the wonderful From 'Pitch to Publication') so this book just went from a 'must-buy' to an 'I NEED IT NOW'. Looking forward to buying it!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Nicola.
What a relief! I mean, how will I cope?
Come back soon.
(Does this mean you won't notice what I get up to behind your back?)
Bookwitch - I'm having a holiday, not falling asleep. Of course I'll notice. *frowns warningly*
Happy Christmas, Nicola. See you next year.
I hope you have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year!
(And nowhere near as much snow as last year!) :D
Merry Christmas, Nicola.
Thanks for all the help and kindness you've given us this year.
God bless you all.
Merry Xmas Nicola! Only fairly recently discovered the blog, and I'm looking forward to a full year of inspirational insight and advice in 2012
Have a lovely festive season with your family.
Merry Christmas Nicola. Thank you for another year of useful and entertaining posts. Have some nog.
Merry Christmas Crabbit Mistress, with beaucoup wassailing too!
Have a wonderful and very Happy Christmas Nicola and family! Hope also to perhaps see you in 2012...!
Happy Christmas, Nicola. Vx
Have a great break and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas, Nicola. I've enjoyed your blog and no-nonsense advice this year (when I sent you a piece for the guest crabbit-slot, you told me in no uncertain terms what was wrong with it! And that's just what I needed! Thank you). I too have friends going through a very rough time this Christmas, so I appreciate what you're saying. It's not a great time for everyone.
Look forward to reading more from you in the New Year. Enjoy the break. Helen
Happy Christmas Nicola (and dog). Thank you for all the great advice you've dispensed over the last year.
A great Christmas to you and family, Nicola!
You've helped me a lot this year (that's not to say you didn't last year...) so thank you very much!

Merry Christmas, Nicola, and have a good rest - it seems as if you must need one with all the fantastic activities and help you've given to other writers.
(I too am hoping we don't get anything like your winter pics!)
Merry Christmas Nicola. Enjoy the break and build your strength for another year of great Crabbity advice- you are very much appreciated.
Merry Christmas :)
I've never seen snow, I'll gladly take some of yours *wistful*
Buon Natale! I am enjoying this very vigorous blog and wish you well for 2012. Ciao cat
