Yuletide Stories

This story is part of an anthology, and I'll just be including a sample of it. Here's how it goes- England, Yuletide 1585 The dice have been loaded against Mistress Julia Wentworth. Little wonder she no longer trusts a soul-except for the street urchin she rescued. Having fallen in love with-and been abandoned by-a murderous traitor, Julia's been turned out by her family and left to scrape what living she can on the brutal London streets. When a goose strays into her yard, it looks as if she'll at least have something to feast on at Christmas. Exploding back into her life in pursuit of his goose is Myall Farrar, a scarred clerk estranged from his miserly father. Myall can't afford to lose the bird for which he's scrimped and saved, because his sister's future depends upon putting on a good show at Christmas. Are Myall and Julia too greatly changed to rekindle the spark between them? Is there any hope of goodwill within their families? And-perhaps more importantly-will the goose prove itself worth saving from the butcher's knife?

Harry Styles was no saint. And he definitely did not like Christmas. In Harry's eyes, if he hates Christmas then so should everyone else. But when his plans to ruin Christmas backfire because of a certain brunette with pretty blue eyes, will he realize that his attempt to suck the Christmas spirit out of his whole town was in pure vain or is he too far gone to change for any girl?

A poem about a special tradition.

"The holiday season is a perfect time to reflect on our blessings and seek out ways to make life better for those around us."

Derek Bradley’s just like any other daft young lad growing up in the 1960s - unique. Through his brutally honest eyes and ears we recall what it's like to celebrate Christmas past in a small Yorkshire village. The advent calendar in the Bradley household is full of adventures - in this first chapter, Derek's first crack at carol singing ends with his first kiss. In frosty bedrooms, damp village halls, and Santa's Grotto at the CO-OP, all is not calm, but it's certainly bright. It’s how Christmas used to be – real, fun, and real funny. “We like it!” BBC Radio Award-winning author Dave Preston was born and raised in Old Malton, a small village in Yorkshire that provides the perfect setting for these hilarious stories. Author's Note I hope you enjoy this collection of festive tales that were born in the years when, as Derek would say, “Christmas was real, and fun, and real funny.” Some might say they don’t make them like that any more, but I think we can.

There are twelve days until Sherlock's least favourite holiday: Christmas. Carols are everywhere, trees are up, and Sherlock's already sick of it. So what happens when one gift, twelve days early, arrives? Three of the exact same gift? Ten? How about forty-five? Will Sherlock finally embrace the dreadful Christmas sweater, or will he burn them all until they stop arriving? Only in "12 Days of Sweaters" will you find out!

Ever wonder why the Doctor doesn't do family gatherings and holidays? Well, this is the last straw for the Doctor. He spent time trying to fit in, but there are a few things the Doctor doesn't do.

"Dear Santa, All I want this Christmas is just to see my idols. I just want to celebrate it with them please, grant my wish. It's all that I'am asking for. Thank you. From, A Fan" I sigh of the thought that it will never happen, since santa isn't real. ~*~ December 5, 2015 Merry Christmas everyone! Especially for Blackjacks!
