Just want to give my favorite community a heads up that I will be going on leave until the new year. It’s not so much a vacation as a sabbatical—I will be working on finishing the book on freelancing that I’m writing in my role as Editor over at FreelanceSwitch. (Should be published by Rockable Press early next year. Stay tuned to FreelanceSwitch if you’re interested!) If you catch me lolly-gagging in the forums, feel free to yell at me to go back to writing. 
In my absence, a whole league of awesome is going to be making sure GraphicRiver runs smoothly, including some fellow Site Managers, the ever vigilant review team, and support staff. If you have a question or pressing issue about GraphicRiver, please contact Envato Support and they will route it to the appropriate person. You’re welcome to email/SiteMail me, but I may not be able to get back to you until after the new year.
I just want to take the opportunity to thank you guys for an awesome year. I feel lucky to work with (in my biased opinion) the very best community of creatives around. You guys continue to inspire me with your work and ideas. Thanks for a wonderful 2010, and lets make 2011 even better yet! Have a very happy and safe holidays.

Interesting! Look forward to seeing the book finished. I’m just taking the first steps away from employment into freelancing, so this is well timed (provided you actually finish the book
).
Good luck with it and don’t worry, we’ll look after the site whilst you’re away…
