Holiday Short StoriesThis is a selection of short stories perfect for the dark, cold nights of the Christmas season. Each warm tale is set on Christmas Eve and is best enjoyed from a comfortable armchair by the fireside, as the special ambience of Christmas fills the room and our hearts. Within these six stories by S.R. Kerr, you will discover a rich variety of seasonal magic. One tale takes you to a snowbound ancestral home, where family secrets are finally revealed beneath a blanket of white. Another follows a German refugee in the 1940s who, by joining the local junior football team, finds hope and a sense of belonging during the festive period. You’ll also encounter unexpected meetings at a lonely country crossroads, where characters’ destinies become entwined on the most magical night of the year. The collection journeys further afield to the warmth and wonder of an Australian Christmas, where high summer temperatures provide a striking contrast to the traditional spirit of the season. One story features two old neighbours returning to their hometown, doing their utmost to recreate the cherished Christmases of years gone by. Each narrative offers its own unique perspective on the joy, togetherness and wonder that define this special time of year. This book is lovingly crafted for readers of all ages and backgrounds who delight in the spirit of Christmas. Let these stories bring warmth and festive cheer into your home. |

About the AuthorSteve’s interest in writing came from the early 1970s when his somewhat unconventional English teacher encouraged his creativity. His creativity and imagination went back to childhood when he would create stories and draw them in a series of pictures. He has always had a strong interest in history and music. His first novel A Cafe In Arcadia, about life in an insular Greek town, was published in 2014. He had already published The Christmas Tree Of Tales in 2013 under the name S.R. Kerr. Under the same name, he also published another book of short stories for Christmas, It Came Upon One Christmas Eve. In 2021 he published another novel The Winding Streets Of Kolonaki set in Athens. He counts a love of music in his interests as well as travel and reading. He has travelled extensively to places as diverse as Pakistan and Peru. Growing up next to the beach on the River Tay in his home town was a major influence on him, as was living in a castle. He worked as a lecturer, tutor, journalist, and civil servant in London.
