Lookin' Forward to 2009

Hey there!

We are truly sorry about the delay between posts, but things have been crazy busy at Ertel Publishing--and it looks like 2009 will be just as crazy and just as busy!

In January, Vicki and Benjamin are going south for business. They'll try to stay out of trouble, but they cannot guarantee anything--when Vicki and Benjamin hit the road, the road gets weird. Just ask them about the severed hand.

The following month, Benjamin will attend the Hart-Parr Oliver Collectors Association's Winter Get-Together in Springfield, Illinois. In March, both Benjamin and Vicki will attend the Niche Magazine Conference in Denver, Colorado.

And of course, Ertel Publishing will host Vintage Truck's annual Truck Show at Young's Jersey Dairy this August 1.

So there you have it. Vicki and Benjamin know that, because of the economic situation, many people are looking with some fear towards the new year--and while the two share that sentiment to some degree, they also see the positive possibilities. The world is not ending, and print is not dead. So relax, put your feet up, pour yourself a little something to sip on, and enjoy the holidays!
