The Story Template is now on my reading list and I will be getting it whether I win it here or not. It certainly sounds as if Amy knows her stuff, so I'll also be checking out her other works of course.
Thanks so much for this great opportunity Jeannie and Amy!

Great post Jeannie!
I suffered from PTSD for five years after the holiday season of 1990 - I was pregnant with twin boys that I miscarried the day before Thanksgiving, (at six months along), then my grandmother died two days before Christmas. For years I dreaded the holidays and avoided all social circumstances I could. Then, thankfully, God sent my angel, in February 1996, the man who would become my second husband and he helped me realize that I didn't need to keep on carrying that pain with me every year. I'm happy to say that we'll have been married 15 years on the 28th, and I look forward to the holidays with him and our two sons every year now.

Thanks for a great post!

Fun story PJ, and you've taught me a lot I didn't know, (as, it seems, others as well). I agree, you have a nice storytelling voice too.

Very well written PJ! It's refreshing to hear "the other side of the story". And I agree, your voice as it is at the moment is perfect for this piece.

Fun, if sordid, story PJ! Great descriptions throughout!

Jason, this is such a deeply thought-provoking piece, so very well written.

I particularly like this line: "He cleared his throat and silence returned, as if even it were awaiting His words.", though I believe it may be reworded to come across even stronger than it is already, maybe changing "it" to "that silence", or something like that.

Thanks so much for a great read!

Interesting takes on "Frozen" Jason, and surely we can all identify with that third one. :) I like the first best, especially that last line.

Oh I like this so much better than the...not true? story of Valentine's Day! So original, unique, and with a great voice, love it Jim!
Happy Valentine's Day!

Oh. my. God. Jason, this is brilliant, simply brilliant. You caputred his psych so very well. Perfection. That's all I can think.
