HI EVERYONE - You can still add your 1000 word (or so) story to the anthology. After we've collected enough of them, we'll store this and download it onto to Smashwords for next season. There will be no price as it will be free to all. Thank you to all the authors who contributed a story to this little anthology and may you enjoy a wonderful season of happiness this year. Merry Christmas.

L. J. Rutledge has compiled a fine collection of Christmas stories by authors competing in the Harper-Collins Internet contest "Authonomy." His CHRISTMAS ANTHOLOGY could well become a seasonal classic offered side by side with A CHRISTMAS CAROL and A VISIT FROM ST. NICHOLAS in every bookstore.

Christmas Anthology.

A tremendous book cover, the joy of Christmas written all over it.
I hope it’s acknowledged by a publisher…I’m sure it will be.
There are some wonderful short stories here.
Maximum stars and on my shelf!

HEY, it let me back the book, but I can't give it a star rating. I would give it six if I could. :D

A lovely tribute to Christmas.

Some might say the snow's turned to slush, but for my part I really did enjoy these.

WOW, what a brain-teaser of marvelous works! Happy Christmas to all and to all - SUCCESS!

Lisa, the book cover is first-rate, could only have been done by a professional such as yourself. Thank you for editing our stories and for all your hard work. Thank you Emmett for your compassion, as always, the gentleman.

6 stars, Claire ~ Chasing Pharaohs.

Lisa and Emmett, This is the kind of thing that helps turn a bunch of loner authors into a community of friends. It is high time that we foster such an aspiration as we are all riding this rock through space together. Thanks so much for your hard work. 6 stars and shelved. RT

This is a wonderful collection of stories to celebrate the Christmas season. I thoroughly enjoyed reading all of my co-authors contributions, as will anyone who chooses to read these heartfelt and uplifting offerings. For myself, I wish everyone involved and the avid readers a very Merry Christmas!!
