Christmas Stories

 
One Grand Gesture Seven years ago, I “drew” Mary C as my Secret Santa giftee. This year, I was thrilled to “draw” her again. Then, I was worried. The story I wanted to write was a Honey and Brian story, and who writes Honey and Brian better than Mary? I took a deep breath and started. But some of my characters were being...difficult. Brian insisted that all the Bob-Whites had to be older than I had planned. Then, Tessa flat out refused to let me write Dan with anyone else. So, I asked Mal to ask Mary if certain things were okay with her. Fortunately, they were, and I was able to complete the story. So, for 2013, I give you a story that highlights the fact that love can be quiet or loud, as long as it is true.
