Happizine Holiday Edition 2026

Cheers! to the people who make the Hudson Valley worth shopping in.

This winter's Happizine is all about buying local. If you write books, make things, or run a small business around here, we'd like to put you in it. The listing is free.

Who this is for

Three kinds of neighbors, one form, one issue: the Holiday Edition. Pick who you are when you fill it out and we'll ask for the right things.

Authors

Your book, in a gift guide

A cover, a blurb, and where to buy, in a section readers will use when they're shopping for the people they love.

  • Book title and your name
  • Cover image (JPG or PNG)
  • A sentence or two about it
  • Where to buy it (link or shop)

Artists & makers

Your work, seen by locals

Painters, potters, soap-makers, knitters, woodworkers, photographers. If you make it with your hands, it belongs here.

  • Your name or studio name
  • One photo of your work
  • What you make, in a sentence
  • Where to find it (site, market, shop)

Local businesses

Your shop, on the list

Bookshops, bakeries, farm stands, cafés, boutiques. Tell readers why they should stop in this season.

  • Business name and town
  • Logo or storefront photo
  • What you offer, in a sentence
  • Website, hours, or a holiday special

Subscribers get the Holiday Edition before the shopping season, with you in it.

Let's get you in

Submit your listing

This form is for the Happizine Holiday Edition 2026. Choose whether you're submitting as an author, an artist or maker, or a local business, and the form will ask for what we need. Free listings are one per person or business.

Space in the print issue is limited and listings run in the order received, so sooner is better. We'll email you when yours is confirmed.
