I'm so excited to be a part of this anthology. It all came about through a chance remark on Tumblr where Leah Pink made a throwaway remark about seeing Christmas decorations in the stores before Halloween, and how normally that would annoy her but this time she suddenly felt inspired to write a Christmas romance.
"What a fantastic idea," I said, "Hey, we should all write Christmas-themed short stories and publish an anthology!"
Much organizing, panicking, deadlines, editing and cover designing later, we had 13 authors, some of whom had never published anything before, and 13 amazing stories. eXcessica Publishing came on board when we realized we were going to have issues with getting paid, and have been absolutely fantastic at helping us pull all this together. So much so, that we're planning to do it all again for Valentine's Day!
