Hi Friends!
I'm happy to announce the arrival of Charlie William Powelson! He was born on May 2nd at 7:24pm. While the birth didn't go as expected, he turned out healthy and happy. This first week has been sleepy and busy — sorry for the delayed announcement. Wordless News will return in a few weeks once the little guy has a bit of a routine figured out. Thanks for all of your love, support, and patience while I take this little break!

Friends,
As I wait patiently (haha) for my bundle of joy to arrive, I've decided to take a break from Wordless News. I should be welcoming a little one into the world any day now and while I'd planned to make Wordless News part of my routine distraction, I've realized that my brain and body really need these last few days to rest and prepare. Once the baby is here, I will make an announcement and set a date for my return. I'm planning to take three weeks off after the baby is born and then resume my normal WN schedule.
Thank you, as always, for following along and for understanding while I take this little break! I promise I will be back as soon as possible. :)

Hi Friends!
I'm hitting the road for a few days to do some speaking and exploring in Utah. I hope you all have a wonderful week. Wordless News will return on Monday, February 29th. :)

Hi Friends,
I hope you are enjoying a wonderful holiday season! Today marks the start of a short seasonal break for Wordless News. I'll be spending the next couple of weeks wrapping up projects for the year and spending time with family and friends.
I'm excited to start a new year of Wordless News come January second! I do want to mention that at the end of April or early May Wordless News will be taking several weeks off. I am pregnant with my first child and I'm certain that the demands of an infant will require me to take a little pause from the visual news. But the news will continue per usual between now and then and resume as soon as possible after the baby arrives.
Thank you for following along. I am so grateful for such a wonderful community of supporters. :)
Best wishes for a Happy New Year,
Maria
Wordless News is taking a break for the next two days for CREATEATHON!
I'll be working with a great team of people to create materials for non-profit organizations for the next 24 hours. If you want to follow along — all night long — you can see what we're doing using the #createathon. Please enjoy a full eight hours of sleep for me!
Wordless News will return Monday, October 26th.
