George Rivera doesn't talk to her father. Hardly talks to her mom. And she finds there even some things she can't talk to her best friend about, like her feelings for her. So why I guess the only thing to do is to...write. She's not a good writer, she's an artist. Well, a wannabe artist at least. It's really dumb for her to have a journal. But maybe that might change.

Charlie, Kip, Rick, Adrian, and Uncle Bob are invited by Frit and Pip to spend a different sort of Christmas Eve on the other side of the portal between worlds. And different is exactly what they get!

Freck and Kyle are both seniors and they’re out and proud. They’re also protégées, as Kyle just turned eleven and Freck is about to turn thirteen, on the day after Christmas. Kyle wants to get his boyfriend something special, but the watch Freck likes is way out of Kyle’s price range. Maybe with help from friends and family, and with a lot of self-sacrifice, he can swing it, but they’ll both learn the greatest gift is one they already share - the love of family.

Two serious writers named Frank and Ben take a stab at collaboration, and end up mired in a contract they never really wanted. This ... is their story.

But first, a word from our sponsor.

**This is a re-write of the original Wolf Like Me, which was previously Efrain and Cory. As I've grown as a writer, my first foray into the genre just didn't reflect who I was anymore.**
