So tomorrow is the big day, and many of you will be getting new ereaders and what-have-you. Many of you will go collecting free ebooks based on two sentence reviews and vague taglines or synopsesesisses. My gift to you this holiday season is the full, unexpurgated version of A Very Special Manlove & Kickerdick Xmess, currently included in the incredible holiday collection LET IT SNOW: SEASONS READINGS FOR A SUPER COOL YULE! which also features tales of not-so-ordinary Holiday shenanigans by such indie luminaries as Jessica McHugh, King of Zombies – Jack Wallen, Red Tash, Tim Tash, Mercedes Yardley, T. Lee Harris, Claudia LeFeve, Marian Allen, Connie Roberts-Huth and some dude named Axel Howerton.

All of these stories are set in these authors existing worlds and, while dazzlingly eclectic, all feature some sort of holiday sentiment, be it “holly jolly Christmas” or “Joy to the New World Order”. This things has it all – sci-fi, fantasy, horror, crime, comedy, dark fic, etc etc etc. The entire collection will be FREE on Amazon for Christmas Day. So read my little take on the High Holy Hollydaze and then pick up the whole shlamozzle tomorrow for your new machines or old pals.

SO check out my story, on me. Merry freakin’ Christmas. Ho! Ho! Ho! Then, tomorrow, check out the rest for free from Amazon!

Read on for the Xmess crazy:

In light of this, I believe today will be PUNK ROCK XMESS DAY on the ol’ homepage.

Where do I think I’ll put a tree that big? Bend over and I’ll show you.

First off, yes, I know this is a Vandal’s song. Secondly, I know, most of you would rather jam a candy cane shiv up your stocking than acknowledge No Doubt as a punk band. I like this version. Because HORNS, you red-nosed sonsabumbles.

Now, since you’ve been so good… here are The Vandals playing out their own Griswoldian issues:

And finally, because I’m all about the classics, here’s a boss cover of the ninth best Xmess song ever:

And some bloody RAMONES!
