I am so tremendously PROUD to be part of this anthology. I was approached by the fantastic Debbie McGowan earlier this year and asked to submit to the (then unnamed) anthology. I can't tell you what that meant to me...to have someone reach out to me and ask me to sub. That had never happened before, and I was honored. Our theme was stories of hope and I took an old Christmas story I had written years ago and completely re-wrote it, infusing it with all my love and hope and excitement.
Proceeds from the sale of the anthology are going to the Trevor project--which is absolutely fantastic charity. I hope you'll take the time to check out my little story and read more about our anthology (now named) Boughs of Evergreen!

of Evergreen is a two-volume collection of short stories celebrating the
holiday season in all its diversity. Penned by authors from the UK, the USA,

Themes of family, friendship and romance take readers on a journey through some of the major holidays, both past and present, including Thanksgiving, Advent, St. Lucia Day, Hanukkah, Eid, Saturnalia, Winter Solstice, Yule, Christmas and New Year. In each we find at the very least hope, and often love, peace and happiness.
Each story will also be published individually as ebooks on 1st December, 2014.
Proceeds from sales of this anthology will be donated to The Trevor Project. The Trevor Project is the leading national organization [USA] providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) young people ages 13-24.
