Hello and Happy Friday! Welcome to the final Reading Day of 2019! This week, I'm reading from the beginning of my new Lesbian Science Fiction Humor Holiday story, The Solstice Pudding. This one's for everyone who wants to know how Miteg sounds in my head. The Solstice Pudding
When Holidays Attack by Angel Martinez Mischief Corner Books Amazon Kobo Apple Paperback: Amazon Chief Engineer Shandi Leavenworth has been crushing on Major Tyra Sur ever since she joined station staff, though the laconic customs officer doesn't give up personal information easily. A few scraps of information leads Shandi to the perfect Solstice present, until of course everything goes horribly wrong. Major Sur took the job on Onwa Station for the stability, the quiet, and out of a need to be useful. It's been all of those things up until the woman she's been quietly flirting with at the bar puts in a desperate call for help. There's no question they need to save the station, but Tyra's not so sure about saving their budding relationship. Genre: Solstice, FF Romance, Science Fiction, Humor

(There'll still be Friday, too, so you get extra.) Today, I'm reading excerpts for you from the third and fourth stories in this year's Mischief Corner Books holiday collection - When Holidays Attack. The first is a YA/Middle Grade steampunk fantasy and the second is a paranormal story with a established poly triad. Come have a listen! Wind Me Up, One More Time by Kari Trenten Mischief Corner Books Amazon Kobo Barnes & Noble Apple When their home becomes too dangerous for them, Nathalie and Grace's mothers decide that Mama Morisot will move with the girls to the city of Verity while Mama Bibi stays behind. There, they find safety and friends—Nathalie in the dashing Maia and Grace in Theodora Bear—but all is not right in Verity. The gears of industry grind on relentlessly in the city, threatening to stifle creativity and magic, seeking to end childhood. One tragic blow at a time, Grace watches as the magic and love around her dies until she also begins to give into despair. It will be up to a stuffed bear and the magic of the holidays to remind Grace how vital imagination is in keeping her family whole. Genre: Christmas, FF Romance, Fantasy/Steampunk, YA/Middle Grade Ghosts, Gangsters and Garland
by Jana Denardo Mischief Corner Books Amazon Barnes & Noble Kobo Apple Zia, Dolores and Kane all possess the magic to fight monsters but all they want now is a nice Christmas break. Partners in life and at work as monster-slayers for a group known as the Clipeum, they’ve been risking life and limb keeping humanity safe. They’ve won their hard-earned vacation their boss has set up for them: a week in a small hotel in upper Wisconsin. Their boss mentioned in passing it used to be a gangster retreat in the heyday of prohibition. Married for some time, Zia and Dolores were surprised to have Kane in their life, first at work and now in their hearts. They’re looking forward to their first holiday today as a threesome and the ladies can’t wait to see their first pagan Yule celebration with Kane. All they want is some quiet relaxation. What they get is something entirely different. Gangster ghosts, would-be witches, over-enthusiastic children, animated snowmen and a century old former gangster moll who has a little spark still in her add up to a not-so-restful Christmas. Zia, Dolores and Kane trade comfy clothing and relaxation for spellcasting and ghost wrangling. Still they might just be able to rescue themselves a Merry Yule from all the chaos.
