It’s Eight Days Until…
Annie Reed
As I write this, it’s December 17th in this screwed-up year of 2025. Eight days until Christmas.
Also eight days until Volume 2 of the last season of Stranger Things drops.
*sigh*
The Christmas season is my favorite time of year, following closely on the heels of Halloween, my second favorite time of the year. I love putting up holiday decorations around the house, stringing lights and setting up blowups in the yard, putting up the Christmas tree, and following Hans Gruber’s slow fall down the Nakatomi Tower. (You have your advent calendar, we have ours.)
I also love writing Christmas stories, which is why I have so many of them that I have three separate collections (so far). Not to mention that several of my Uncollected Anthology stories for the issues that come out in December are holiday stories.
I’m also a huge Stranger Things fan. I’ve been waiting years for the final season of this show to drop. To find out what happens to Eleven, Will, Mike, Dustin, Lucas, Max (poor Max!), Robin, Hopper, Joyce, Nancy, Jonathan, and most especially Steve.
