Creepy/Cozy #4

Final posting for 2024—see you in 2025!

My final collection of seasonal stories for 2024. Winter Solstice is almost upon us (December 21st), and that means the official start of winter but also the slowly lengthening hours of sunlight. Don’t worry, though. There will still be plenty of dark time. BwahaHOHOHO!

I’ll be rethinking my whole writing schtick and getting refocused in 2025. Happy to say my four books have had some sales. But the call of Freelan is growing louder in my brain, demanding more of my attention. Sort of like the crying baby or barking dog needing attention.

Hope all your writing endeavors this year have been satisfying to you personally. Oh, and don’t miss Thorny Thursday hosted by
