The Wild Hunt’s weekend section is always open for submissions. Please send queries to eric@wildhunt.org. Traditionally, the change of the calendar from December 31 to January 1 marks a time to start new habits and to sweep away the debris of the previous year, regardless of whether it was a happy or sad one.
