Awhile back, I decided that I definitely, positively, 100% wanted to have a new web story available for this holiday season. I even had a title..."A Very D Christmas." So I started writing it. And writing it...and writing it...well, pretty soon it was long enough that I no longer felt super comfy offering it for free. It was expanding into short-novella territory, upwards of 40 pages.
Then I had the idea - why not make it a fundraiser? I could offer part of the purchase price as a holiday charity donation. But which charity? There was only one answer: the Trevor Project.
The recent spate of teenage LBGTQ suicides has spurred interest in the Trevor Project as well as Dan Savage's associated It Gets Better Project. Both are amazing, worthy causes and I know you'll be just as excited to support them as I am.
So now, "A Very D Christmas" is for sale for $1.99, $0.50 of which will be donated to the Trevor Project in the name of all my readers.
Please click over to my website, the story purchase link is on the front page.

ReplyDeleteThis is the nicest Christmas surprise - how I have missed the Zero boys!! Thank you so much for writing and sharing this with us. I just downloaded it and am going to save it for a quiet time when I can indulge without outside interruptions. A little gift to myself...so thank you for that!! I look forward to (hopefully) more from this universe in the future.
ReplyDeleteJust saw this post on Wave's site. I just bought this story. It's wonderful of you to help a great cause.
ReplyDeleteHi, just wanted to say thanks and that I really have enjoyed your story of Jack and D.
ReplyDeleteI had just a quick question. In your Christmas story you have D reference his wife Shelia. In Zero, I thought the name of the wife was Sharon? Just wondering.
I hope your new year is wonderful and you have many days of inspiration to continue writing Jack and D's story.
Hi I got so excited about this new addition to the story I bought a copy thru PayPal but I haven't received the PDF. Then I saw that it was only until Jan 31.
ReplyDeletePlease, please, please since I've already paid for it may I get a copy of A Very D Christmas? I loved Zero to the Bone so much. It would make my whole week if I could get a copy.
Thanks
Just finished reading your book and all the short stories and I loved them all. Kept picturing in my mind the (gay) actor Matt Bomer (from the tv-series White Collar)as Jack and Vin Diesel as D. :-) I will certainly read your sequel.

I read your Facebook note: May the Muse that brought you Jack and D re-alight on your imagination and return your talent to telling us more about these two full-bodied, complicated and thoroughly engaging men.
