Yuletide Eve

I have an oversweetened chestnut praline latte from Starbucks, the tree lights are turned on, and I am wrapped in a blanket on the couch while the spouse gets mad at a video game and our 16-year-old retriever mix does the geriatric-dog equivalent of losing his glasses in another room a dozen times in a row, and I plan to write Yuletide treats frantically 'til the deadline.

... in other words it's a perfect Christmas Eve. <3

Tree bling:



The barn ornament is new this year. When we were kids, we had a Fisher Price toy barn, and I saw the ornament (which is Fisher Price merch, based on the toy) and bought one for my sister and one for me. The actual toy goes "MOO" when you open the door. We used to do that ... a lot. Because we thought it was hilarious. I bet Mom didn't think so.

Shilling:

My latest Lauren book, Metal Pirate (Warriors of Galatea #3), is out: Ebook | Paperback. I think I'm going to wait to send out the official emails 'til after Christmas. Email me if you want a free copy and let me know what format you want.

Prompted is a new anthology of short, light romance by Elva Birch, aka [personal profile] ellenmillion. Every story I've read so far has been absolutely delightful! There's a mix of M/F and F/F of all heat levels, from ultra sweet to graphic to kinky. Available at Amazon, at other vendors, or you can get a free copy if you sign up for Elva's mailing list.

Merry Christmas!
