I've been getting into the Christmas Spirit for two months already.
What? Me?
I know! I usually end up doing my shopping just a few days before the 25th.
So what happened? Did I see three ghosts? Did a novice angel show me what the world would be like if I was never born?
No, nothing like that. I just decided to finish up some awesome Christmas writing again, like I did over a decade ago when I determined to finish
Gone but not Forgotten within a month. I finished in three weeks of intense writing.
The problem was that I got really sick of that book after so much intense focus! And even though it was very well received and generated many die hard fans, and many readers told me they couldn't put it down till they finished...
I wasn't satisfied.
But now I am! I did a massive revision of the book, making it even better in several ways - like spelling out clearly the Meaning of Life, improving many characters and the plot, and improving the writing, making it even more vivid and engaging.
The new version is titled
Courage, Love and the Meaning of Christmas, which is a much better indicator of what's inside.
Then I also finished up the sequel,
The Perfect Gift, which readers have been requesting for years, and I think it's even better than the first. Partly because Ski becomes a major character and I think he's hilarious.
Anyway, you can pick them up at
Christmas Novels.com (and other places which I'll announce soon).
