A Heavy January Bundle

A Heavy January Bundle

Hello Friends,

The bundle weighed in at almost 6 ounces this month, I think the heaviest since I became mailer. You are certainly getting your money's worth out of Ivan and I; we almost couldn't get the papers into the envelope! And now the cupboard is bare, and awaiting your February work.

We have signed up enough new members that we need to increase the number of journals you send to 150, as noted on the January envelopes, beautifully printed by Ivan D. Snyder. This increase allows us to make a few mistakes, and also lets me send out sample bundles to people considering membership. This month, we have not one extra bundle.

The only other news this month is that after a very close call, the IPRC reached their fundraising goal of $20,000! Hooray! The way Kickstarter works is that if you don't reach your goal, you don't get any of the money. I'm happy to see that they can continue their meaningful work.

Thanks for all of your meaningful work.
