scarlettinaI have noticed my wonderfully gifted writer friends posting holiday stories all over the Web. This morning, I decided that I'd aggregate links to those that I could find as a sort of Christmas anthology. These pieces are awesome: some are dark, some are funny, but they're all entertaining. For my friends who celebrate, and for those who bask in the residual holiday cheer: enjoy!
Reindeer Games, a noirish tale of reindeers and fat men, by urban fantasy author Kat Richardson
One Foot in the Grave, which posits that a spot by the chimney may not be the only place for a stocking, by science fiction/fantasy author J. Steven York
Elf Shit, the dark truth about Santa and his elves, by science fiction/fantasy author Jay Lake
Bedlam Inn, a Victorian Christmas fantasy, by alt-history fantasy author Madeleine Robins.
And some random holiday delights:
NORAD Tracks Santa: I follow him every year. At this writing, he's over Kazakhstan.
An eel-powered Christmas tree in (where else?) Japan.
Holiday fiction from the New York Times by Tea Obreht
For the Seattle locals, 5 ideas for the week between Christmas and New Year's
Merry happy!
