Seven Nativity sets:
Felt, stone, ceramic,
thimble sized,
precious moments,
Squeezable dolls,
Nesting Matryoshka.

Our three-year-old
gathers the many Marys
around baby Jesus.
The wisemen sleep under the tree.
The shepherds chase their flocks.

Then she tells me of Christmas.

@CleanWIP Emily took Clint’s hand. Blessing the food was a tradition at her house while Mama was alive, but flew out the window after she died. Roy never mentioned praying at meals and neither did she. It would only serve to remind them of the empty chair around their the table.

The CleanWIP Experience

We work closely with published authors and writers who are aspiring to be published as well as other creative people such as artists, poets, and songwriters in our CleanWIP Facebook group for authors (et al) and via the #CleanWIP hashtag game to bring readers interesting sneak peeks into their works-in-progress plus full-featured articles, personal reflections on the thoughts and struggles from a rough draft to a published work, and special collaborations on various topics.

We encourage authors to use the #CleanWIP hashtag to share sneak peeks related to the day’s theme from unpublished works. This helps us provide content our readers love and expect. For the same reason, we also encourage use of the hashtag for a single relevant release day announcement. On Fridays, we relax the structure even further and encourage using #CleanWIP to share relevant news, interesting teases from a work-in-progress or published work (purchase links encouraged on Fridays), or something else our readers might love. Actual use of the hashtag is not within our control and even on this site we will sometimes share #CleanWIP content that doesn’t strictly meet these guidelines.
