I've written a few posts on stories from Infinite Space, Infinite God II, edited by Karina Fabian. For this Christmas, she's releasing a new holiday story in her own fantasy world and supporting a good cause. Please read her letter below and donate if you can.
Dear friends and readers,
This winter, I have two things in my heart and on my mind: caring for
those less fortunate than me (or indeed, much of the world) and my
DragonEye, PI stories. For Christmas, I’m combining them and would like
to share them with you.
Those of you who are “Vern Fans,” know
about my dragon who works in our world as a private investigator, and
his partner, Sister Grace, a mage and nun in the Faerie Catholic Church.
They’ve saved the worlds and their friends in numerous stories and
novels. Last year, I wrote a story for Flagship about their first
Christmas together. Not only is Grace struggling with the Mundane idea
of Christmas, but their home is threatened by a land developer who wants
to tear down the entire neighborhood and make a mall. When the Ghosts
of Christmas come to visit him, however, Vern and Grace have to solve
the mystery before the Christmas Spirits become Angels of Death.
I have revised and am publishing “Christmas Spirits” as a serial story
to raise funds for Food for the Poor. This is a wonderful charity that
helps people in impoverished nations help themselves. It allows donators
to choose their gifts--whether rice for a family for a month, school
supplies, livestock, tools or even houses.
I'm asking that you
please check out the story, and, if you enjoy it and want to see more,
that you donate even a dollar to the cause. Also, if you enjoy the
story, let your friends know. I'll post every Tuesday and Thursday as
the donations come in. Right now, we have raised enough to send a
family 20 baby chicks and are halfway to a fruit tree in addition. Vern
would like to send them a cow (he is a dragon, after all), but Sister
Grace and I are dreaming of raising enough to buy someone a home. Can
you imagine giving a HOUSE for Christmas? Will you help?

Thanks for your attention!
