A reminder from the wonderful Anne Wilson Smith that 2024 is tomorrow(!) and proud Americans need a new calendar. Shotwell Publishing obliges with 365 Days of Dixie! Read all about it:

We’re on the cusp of 2024. Based on the trajectory of the past few years, there doesn’t seem to be much cause for optimism, and I haven’t heard much hopeful chatter in real life or on the interwebs. It’s my philosophy that at the global level, what will happen will happen, and you or I can’t do much to change that. However, what we CAN do is engage in small, purposeful actions with the goal of edifying ourselves, preserving things that are valuable, and savoring moments of joy and meaning in our everyday lives.

One way to do this is to cultivate the habit of keeping alive our Southern culture and traditions. Those of us who value the old and contemporary South have a wonderful new resource for incorporating it into our daily lives. Our friends at Shotwell Publishing (“Southern Books. No Apologies.”) are offering their first edition of the 365 Days of Dixie calendar for 2024.

Order one today! If I’m right, by a repetitive temporal fluke 2024 is the same calendar as 1607. So if you’re a time-traveler, this might be the only calendar you’ll ever need!
