To all my readers and customers: the Elfin Diary has ceased publication. The 2023 edition was the last.
I haven’t handed it over to anybody else, so any current “Elfin Diary” you see being sold has nothing to do with either me or the Diary’s creator, Caroline Heaney; they’re trying to profit off the name. However, anybody who wants to produce a similar pocket-sized diary-cum-almanac (without calling it ‘Elfin’) is welcome to try. I’ll even help out with advice!
This site – originally the shopfront for the Diary and its associated merchandise – has been totally rebuilt and will remain as an archive of articles published in the Diary over its 30-year history. If you’re the author of any of these, please get in touch so that I can credit you (or remove your article, if you wish).
For all queries, email archivist@elfindiaries.co.uk
