I hope everyone has been having a wonderful weekend. It's time to take a look back and see what's been happening in the GA News Blog.

On Monday, we had the CSR Announcement. To start out the new year, we've chosen The Life of Seeon by Comicfan. If you haven't already read it, make sure you do so that you can participate in the discussion on January 25th!

On Wednesday, we had this months Ask An Author Feature. This month featured questions to AC Benus, Aditus, and Mark Arbour. Hopefully you enjoyed their answers.

We finished the week out with the Prompt Me Feature. Not only did we have the regular prompts from comicfan, but we also had this months Poetry Prompt by AC Benus. We also featured a prompt response by Carlos Hazday.
