The Christmas [Blank] (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

[Co-authored with Amy, Kevin, Quinn, and Albany]

You know how there are a zillion Christmas movies, books, and TV specials with titles like "The Christmas" plus something else? It occurred to the authors that the formulas used in these stories could probably be applied or shattered using just about any noun in a title like that. So we came up with a new tradition.

The rules are simple:
1. Open a book and point to a random spot on a random page.
2. Scan along the text until you come to a noun.
3. Stick that noun at the end of the title, and write that story.

Autorenporträt

I'm a software engineer and a pretty dang good husband and dad. I graduated from the University of Washington and have lived pretty much my whole life in Washington state, except for two years in the Oriental Republic of Uruguay on a church mission. I still pronounce the "LL" in "tortilla" like an "SH".

I love Mega Man and Metroid, and I have beaten Gradius and Contra without cheating. When pressed to compare Star Trek and Star Wars, I say that best of Star Trek is better than the best of Star Wars, although the average coolness:time ratio might be higher in Star Wars, at least for the original trilogy.

I don't really think of myself as an author - I'm definitely keeping my day job. But with all those sci-fi ideas bouncing around in my head, eventually enough of them coalesced that I could form a story. I'm glad they did, because I actually have a hard time finding sci-fi books that I like. (If I can't share it with my kids, I probably won't like it either.) And I'm even more happy that a quadruple-digit number of other people have shared it. I guess nothing brings people together like saving the galaxy with cool powers and cool tech!
