To everyone that celebrates Christmas, may I wish you a merry one! I hope the next few days are wonderful and bright for you.

We'll be back come Monday. For now, enjoy this gorgeous holiday filler. Keith was obviously inspired by a recent movie of some sort. I'm not sure which one, of course, but I'm sure you can figure it out!

For those who are interested, this year I began writing for small press RPG companies. I'm including a full list of books below, including links to where to buy them. I earn royalties on the books marked with a star. Buying those books helps support me and, therefore, Mysteries of the Arcana. Please consider doing so with your holiday money. I appreciate your support in whatever form it come in. Thank you for being part of the Mysteries of the Arcana family.

P.S. If you do buy any of these books please consider leaving a review. If you're buying a book that Keith illustrated, make sure to mention the art in the review. That lets the publisher know he or she hire Keith again!
