I planned to wait until this Sunday, but decided to tease the release today. And I say tease as there’s not much I want to say at the moment, and certainly no spoilers. But, for the sake of saying something, I should add that I’m working on an Advent story to be released each Advent Sunday this Christmas.
This isn’t the first time I’ve written a Christmas story. I’ve currently got two Advent Calendar stories with a chapter for each day of the 24 days of the Greenlandic and Scandinavian Christmas period.
The existing series is called Dark Advent, and it starts with The Calendar Man.
The Calendar Man and Invisible Touch are the calendar novels, while Twelfth Night and North Star Bay are add-ons, continuing a thread started in each of the calendar stories.
So, as you can see, I try and release something each Christmas.
This Christmas is different, as I bumped up the release date for the Greenland Missing Persons #12 The Blister at the End of the World. It’s coming out this Christmas, but it’s not a Christmas story.
Yule at Aurora Station, however, is totally a Christmas story.
And now, to the teasing…
Just like I did with The Calendar Man, this story is set a little into the future where we find a popular character “all grown up”.
Yep, Luui is in this one!
Without giving too much of the story away, let me give you an idea of the way it will work.
I’m going to release each part of the story on each Advent Sunday in 2021 as per the following dates:
- Sunday November 28, 1st Advent, part 1/4 of Yule at Aurora Station – FREE
- Sunday December 5, 2nd Advent, part 2/4 of Yule at Aurora Station – $0.99
- Sunday December 12, 3rd Advent, part 3/4 of Yule at Aurora Station – $0.99
- Sunday December 19, 4th Advent, part 4/4 of Yule at Aurora Station – $0.99
I’m going to release them on my payhip store and then as a collected work for $2.99 on Amazon after Christmas Day.
Part 1 will be FREE, so you can try it and see if it’s something for you, and then if it is, you can choose to buy each part as it is released on the following three Advent Sundays this Christmas, or wait for the collected work. Once all the parts are collected as one, they will be about the length of one of my novellas, and priced accordingly.
I’ll tease a bit more about the plot later, but hey, it’s a Luui story, there will be spirits, probably monsters, and there will be mayhem. But she’s in her twenties, so it’s Luui but older, more mellow, believe it or not.
If that’s enough to give you a Petra frown, then you’re not alone. 🙂
More later!
Chris
