Are you still scrambling, as am I, checking off lists and / or scratching your head? Are you in a panic for that one stocking stuffer—something unexpected and special—the icing on the cake?
What the heck do you get Aunt Mary, or Betsy, or Uncle Phil? They have everything, right? I would like to make a suggestion.
First of all, sit down and take a deep breath. Feel better? I thought you might. I do not have a crystal ball and anyway, I wouldn’t know what to do with it. I’d likely drop and break it before I learned to read the messages within, but YOU can work some magic.
It is no mystery I am proud to suggest you click on over to http://redmundpro.com/book-store/ftp5/ and order copies of any one or all of the sizzling Flash Anthologies you’ll find at your fingertips.
Hurry. Time’s a-wasting and Christmas will not wait. Give the gift of laughter, bewilderment and surprise: small morsels wrapped inside as few as 50 and as many as only 150 words.
Go. Make your favorite people happy. If you wish to buy flash ebooks, use the code GIMME10 for 10% off through this month. Don’t forget #1 is always free.
OF SPECIAL NOTE: Many of the authors of these anthologies donate their payments to MAGIC Foundation. http://magicfoundation.org which works around the world with children with growth and genetic disorders. True, yes?
Hurry while there is time. Check the right-hand bar on this page for a preview of all the lovely covers. There are now five to choose from. Get them all. The latest is Finding the Path, but don’t stop there.

That’s a win-win-win: give a gift, it helps an author, and helps children with growth and genetic disorders. Excellent suggestion. 🙂

I purchased ‘Finding the Path’ a couple weeks ago, but I have a long reading queue (don’t we all?), so I haven’t gotten to it yet. I didn’t know about the donation to the MAGIC Foundation. That’s really nice.

How could anyone go wrong when they select words that turn into a story or poem and even better, those words have a beginning and an end.
