"Let me tell you a story about twelve people. They may not all be related, but they have one thing in common," the mother said as she sat down on the bed where her daughter laid.
"What?" the little girl asked, hugging her teddy bear closer to her body.
"They all experienced something special during Christmas," the mother answered.
"So they all have their own story arc?" her daughter quipped.
"Precisely!" she grinned, before clearing her throat, "I'm going to tell you about their Christmas arc."

Get ready guys, because we're going to be consistently updating this book everyday until Christmas day. Allow me to write you twelve stories about twelve people, all happening during the holiday season. Every person has a different experience so not every single one of these will be happy ones, not all will be angsty or sad.
Some will be longer than others, there will be the ones that will literally be only three pages long, but I guarantee that all will be worth reading.
So I just want you guys to comment on them, tell me your thoughts. If you liked it, vote! That, in itself, is already an amazing Christmas present to me.
See you all tomorrow for the first day of Christmas.
A/N as of 7/13/16: I wrote this in a hurry back then so it's currently going through edits.
