The Month Ahead – Monday 4 December

Hello, All,

Welcome to The Month Ahead for December 2023. It is my hope the year has been kind to you.

During the month, the final episodes of IT SUITS HER will be released. Maxie and Celia have traveled a long road and it has been a joy telling their story.

Last month we developed NOVEMBER POEMS, PARTS ONE AND TWO. Seven poems were compiled to honor the eleventh month. Writing from John Clare, Emily Dickinson, Rebecca Hey, and Elizabeth Drew Barstow Stoddard was included. Although not recorded, it is realistic to see a release in 2024.

However, the experience of researching poets and poetry was appealing. Expect an episode this month with a focus on December.

The lineup for the first six months of 2024 includes the following:
— January – Break. There are no episodes scheduled in January
— February – LOVE 20 MINUTES INTO THE FUTURE where The Messenger becomes a digitzed personal assistant, with staff, to save a prestigous client of the firm from a potentially catastrophic delay in releasing a new product
— March – SEVENTEEN: A continuation of the story started in 2023; Severin Vincent Tennyson, a sixty-four year-old non-verbal janitor in central New Jersey, U.S.A. and Jennifer Hargrove, his job coach, struggle to understand the flashback he is having
— April – ROAD RAGE: An interpretation of Washington Irving’s Legend of Sleepy Hollow
— May to June – LATE IN THE GAME: The first eight episodes centered on three players on a struggling minor league baseball team in New Jersey

Also, there is a rumor an old friend will in the area between Christmas and New Year. Stay tuned for updates.

Thanks for stopping by in 2023 and we look forward to sharing more in 2024. As always, please remember there are stories are everywhere.

Respectfully,

William E. Spear
