HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED?

 Why Christmas Lights ...

and Nativity Scenes 



stay up until January 6th?

It has to do with the datecelebrated for when the 3 Wise Men arrived to greet the infant Jesus

It is known as Three Kings Day,the Epiphany, the 12th Day of Christmas

It also marks the official start of the Mardi Gras Seasonoften called Carnivalwhich comes from the Latin words carne vale, meaning "farewell to the flesh."

Which is apt for my new novel

Mardi Gras, Magic, Murder in 1947 New Orleans


Nuestra Señora de la Santa Muerte,  Our Lady of Holy Death is stalking the streets killing apparently at random.

Her Acolyte is stalking the shadows of the French Quarter

A maskedBall of the Undeadis held to entraphapless mortals.
 And the bomb that has been ticking in the midst of the cast of characters from Silhouettes in the Key of Scream  to Perchance to Nightmare to  Beware the Jade Christmas
