Holiday Stories for You
The days between Christmas and the New Year were made for reading. I insist upon it in my own life and try to make allowances for those who curtail socializing to stay in with a book. Really, reading fiction is wish fulfillment for grown ups. So are naps. And leftovers.
There are two stories I've written on a holiday theme for you to take a look at between naps.
For those of us who have lost someone too early, after too terrible an illness, after too much love to do without, I wrote The Last Bluebird. It is not a downer. It's about that cycle we all return to and must learn to accept.
And then, I wrote something completely different for another holiday season. Be a bit careful with this one because it might make you need a nap...with someone.
For those of you who got calendars for Christmas, here is what January might have in store, in the fictional sense, if you like firemen. This story also appears in my book, Love from Planet Wine Cooler.
