Merry Christmas! I am beyond pleased to announce that the first three parts of Six Days 'Till Christmas, a holiday-themed short story set in Timothy's world, are up and available to read on Wattpad! The rest will be available on Christmas Eve. This story has been two years in the works. When I wrote What Is and Could Be, I realized that I finally had an opportunity to write a Christmas short story that really felt like Christmas to me. I read A Christmas Carol almost every December, so the concepts surrounding Victorian Christmases are also inextricably linked to my ideas regarding the holiday. Grant you, my family doesn't have roast goose and plum pudding to celebrate our Savior's birth, but there are few things that put me in the mood to wish peace on earth and goodwill towards men faster than cracking open my copy of A Christmas Carol. And since love is at the very core of this holiday we celebrate every December (John 3:16 begins in the manger), I thought there was no better canvas for the story I wanted to tell than Timothy's relationship with his favorite cook's assistant. With that said, I think it's fair to warn you that this story does contain massive spoilers for To Live and To Breathe, so if you haven't had a chance to read that one yet I'd recommend picking it up first! As always, I hope this story blesses you. - Katelyn It's been months since that fateful night on a doorstep when Timothy accidentally blurted “I love you” to his favorite cook's assistant. Ever since that moment, Timothy has been a dead man walking—at least, in his own estimation. How could he break the news of their understanding to his parents and live to tell about it? And yet, the date is set: December 24th, Christmas Eve. He has six days to prepare himself. Six days before what's unknown becomes known, and he'll find out whether the Christmas he's read about in books could be real.
