Happy Holidays, Champions!
Every December I like to write and share a new short story as a small way for me to say “thank you”. And this year year is no exception! I wrote this story as a thank you to to each and every Champion who has been such a support to me over my writing journey, especially during this year of health issues. I couldn’t have made it without your encouragement!
This year’s Christmas Gift/Short Story is from the Elves of Lessa world. It’s been a while since we’ve visited Myth, Tari, and Fyn, so I hope this story makes you laugh. Here it is: Notes on Elves!
This is the first time I’ve written a letters style short story for the Elves of Lessa series, but I’ve already done two of them for The Timeless Fairy Tales series:
I’m curious to hear what you think about this style of short story? (Post in the comments below!) Personally I like them since I get to really let the character’s personalities shine which means I can also bring in the humor in full force, without having to worry about adding to the cannon of the story. (Even with my grids and outlines, I can keep only so much straight!)
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Champions.
Trio of daftness! Yay! they are so much fun.
So. Much. Fun!!!!!!!
And “trio of daftness” probably fits these guys even better here than when the name was originally given. I mean, come on, everyone knows if you can’t beat an elf, join her! Not to mention, they’re all in survival mode instead of figuring out how to entice more elf warriors over the border!
😉
Oh dear, those poor captains.
An absolutely hilarious and delightful story, thank you Kitty so much.
Merry Christmas to everyone
That is hilarious. I feel sorry for them. Lol…
I just finished rereading the Elves of Lessa so this short story came out at the perfect time! Thank you Kitty!
Kitty, this is AMAZING!!! I just about died when I read that last sentence:
“May heaven have mercy upon their souls” beautifully done! You’re awesome:)
I just started rereading Elves of Lessa so I will save this for after I am done. I am partial to Beauty and the Beast as it was my first book by you. I LOVE the “letters” between Elle and Severin. It shows the love and humor that is in their relationship and made me laugh…a lot.
Can’t wait for the next Angelique book.
Absolutely adored their banter and cracked up at their attempt to survive their charges! Thank you for enlightening us on their thoughts and we hope they survive and we hear more from them in the next installment!
OMG, that’s awesome and absolutely hilarious! That poor, poor trio. Lol.
Sooo very cute! It’s like reading text threads!
I will admit my favorite is Between a Prince & his Lady, but part of that may be because Elle & Severin are so delightfully fun in their tete-a-tete. Fred & Pet & the trio of dadtness are highly enjoyable, but maybe it’s just because I can visualize Severin’s heart attacks as Elle runs around the continent. Such a sweet, silly man, to forget her used to order her to do far worse! 😉
If I was less congested, an actual squeal of excitement, and joy would’ve come out right now!
Thank you Ms. Kitty!!! This is awesome!
Merry Christmas!!!
