Description:

Don Quixote, so they say, was the first modern novel, the classic comedy.

Knowing how stressful the holidays can become, I thought that a greeting from The Man of La Mancha could really cheer a person up.

In this swap, we will send one swap partner a Don Quixote inspired holiday greeting (sender's choice as to which December - January holiday will be greeted). Will Don Quixote dress up as Santa Claus? Will he shout "Happy New Year" from the top of a windmill? Will Sancho Panza be wishing your partner a Happy Hanukkah, or perhaps he will be sleeping in on Solstice? Human Rights Day, Kwanzaa, any December or January holiday will do for our valiant knight and his friends.

Here is some Don Quixote inspiration:

Swap open to any ZMACS member in good standing. I will Don Quixote all swaps, so do not fear to joust at windmills! It's a loooong book, so I am allowing extra swap time just to extend the good will.
