I have never been a
Christmas Eve shopper although I might become one this year for an extra gift
or two. In part because of events
with my novel Pilot Point, finding the
time and energy for Christmas preparation has been a push this year.
So this post is not to
condemn Christmas Eve shoppers (who may be enduring self-condemnation already) but to help.
Now, at the risk of
repeating myself, remember Christmas is a season that begins on Christmas Day
and lasts twelve days. There is no
shame is giving Christmas gifts after Christmas Day.
But I know most would
rather not use that Anglican excuse and go that route. So may I once again suggest
e-books? They are very easy and
often inexpensive to give, certainly in the case of Kindle books. There is no wrapping, and delivery is
immediate. Yes, you can buy a gift
today, and it gets delivered today.
And no one need know of your procrastination.
It does not have to be the Kindle version of Pilot Point that you give. Many, perhaps most, books that come out
nowadays are available in Kindle.
But if you do choose to give Pilot
Point, which I think a good gift for Anglicans and Texans especially, you
certainly have my festive thanks. :)
Christmas Eve shopper or
not, I hope you enjoy this Christmas Eve and Christmas season as much as I
intend to do. And, as always,
thanks for your support.
Have a Happy Christmas.
