Snowman and Package: Companion Stories by Kate

Over the holidays Kate wrote two stories for the writing blog she, Anna, and Pearl are a part of, and I promise you will enjoy them! 

Package is written during that confusing between time where you're not sure if it's too late to sing Christmas songs or too early to sing New Years songs. It's witty, creative, and lovable! Here is an excerpt...Enjoy! 

"Holding the package tightly in one arm, she slammed her door shut and hurried up to the shining glass doors. No address on her package yet. She was crazy to be doing this.

“Last minute gift, eh?” a voice said, and she looked up to see the young man who had been standing there dusting snow off his coat.

He was holding the door for her; and, as she moved through it, she said with a bright smile, “That’s right. I do hope they get it in time for Christmas day.”

As he followed her through the door, she noticed he was looking at the package. “No address, I know. I really don’t know who it’s for yet.” She grinned sheepishly.

He lifted one eyebrow but didn’t ask any more questions. She found herself strangely glad. This was getting awkward. How was she supposed to take her package up to the counter and tell the clerk that she wanted to send a package but she didn’t know where?"

Snowman is the companion to Package and is written from the perspective of a friendly, lonesome country mailman on Christmas Eve. 

Just so y'all know, it is a very well written, captivating, humorous (we had the best country mailman, and he sounds a bit like Blake ;P), clever, and well worth reading!!! It's got a nice cozy feel that pulls you into the snow (so to speak) along side the gallant, bachelor of a mailman for God! Hop on over to her page on Noble Novels and read it!! It will encourage you and put a smile on your face that I promise will effect you perspective towards what God brings your way!

"He made his decision. Finishing off his coffee, he declared, "Minstrel, old girl. This snowman super hero on a Christmas mail mission for God is going in. You are going with him because it's too cold for you to stay that long in the truck."

Jumping out, he opened the door for her like a true gentleman and tucked the mail into the front of his overcoat. "It's going to be a long walk, but one of our New Year's resolutions was going to be more exercise. We'll survive.""
