    Chapter 1

    You hit this one out of the park, my friend. I loved it. Stars for the star... such a sweet gesture. The ending brought tears to my eyes. Just the kind of HEA I love. Very nicely done.
  3. December Prompt Character: a department store Santa who’s an employee in a fast food restaurant Story words: what was left behind, woods Elven Wishes “Son of a bitch!” Jim kicked at a pile of debris on the floor, scattering its contents in a swirl of dust. “Hey! I just swept that!” Annie scowled and moved to redo the task she had just finished. “And Santa doesn’t swear.” “Well this Santa does. Especially when his dickhole friend leaves him behind!”

    Chapter 1

    I don't mind the rushed ending. It was a feel-good tale and I love scavenger hunts. Merry Christmas!

    Elixir

    Nice story. I like that their issues weren't suddenly resolved, but the feeling of making an honest effort was there. Troy's revelation felt quite natural and not contrived. I enjoyed this a lot. Merry Christmas!

    The Story

    Wow... this was fantastic, Northie! I was riveted from the beginning. I think this is the best thing you've written so far (that I've read, anyway ). The images and emotions were vibrant and I think the text messages worked quite well to convey the movements of the order. Very well done. You should be proud of this. Happy Yule and Merry Christmas!
  9. Cute story. Merry Christmas!

    The Gift

    Very cute! I liked the elven POV, and you gave us snippets of a whole culture and a unique spin on Santa's workshop. I could see this expanded as a longer story. Nice job, and Merry Christmas! Sorry, but you're going to have to put up with a hug
  11. I loved it. You are very good at giving a lot of information in few words. I"d have been questioning my sanity too. Merry Christmas!

    Christmas Day

    A lovely, feel-good story for the holidays. You brought a smile to my face. Merry Christmas!
  13. “Where am I?” “You are in the Blue Forest on the outskirts of Blues Town.” “Is that like Bluesville? Where’s B.B. King?” I snickered. I was either hallucinating or dreaming. Or dead. The giant navy blue man sitting next to me in the azure clearing laughed—a booming sound that made the sapphire leaves quake like aspen on their cerulean branches. “I like your sense of humor,” he stated. “Seriously, though. What is this place?” I waved my hand in front of my face, marveli

    "Things" sent a shiver down my spine. I want to know more now... lol

    Invitation

    I'm sorry to see this series end, but very much look forward to your next endeavor. I can't pick a favorite line or stanza from this. It's all brilliant.
  16. Thanks for featuring these. I don't think I've read the 2004 and 2006 anthologies, so I'll be sure to check them out. I don't normally plug my own work, but the story I wrote for the 2015 Christmas Story Contest - "The Old Ways" is about Yule, which is today. So Happy Yule!
  17. Welcome, Jakey This is a great place to be. Glad you decided to come out of lurk mode.
  18. I have a little bit more to do on my write-up. I'll have it to you tomorrow, if that's ok. Sorry for the delay. The bulk of it is done, but there's some areas I need to give a little more thought to.
  19. Another story to add to the ever-growing list.

    Masquerade

    I love it. Especially the personification in the second stanza. You prove, once again, that you are the master of form.
  21. I've read most of them. I think I still have one or two to go. It's a diverse selection that's well worth reading.

    Chapter 9

    It's nice to see Kohen living in the now and making himself comfortable. I'm sad at the same time, since he can't think of anyone who ever cared about him. I have a feeling that's going to change, though. O Captain, My Captain... I laughed so hard at this line that I scared the cats. I’ve been summoned to deal with an idiot who didn’t realize mass doesn’t change just because you’re in zero gravity.”

    Chapter 23

    Thanks so much for your support. There won't be a long wait for the next chapter. It's with my editor now and Chapter 25 is with my beta reader. I even started working on Chapter 26 today, so the next few chapters are in the works. Thanks for commenting!
