"A Christmas Story" is a gift for my niece, Fiona May, and the culmination of a three-year, admittedly seasonal, project. The ethos of the book aside, the goals were threefold:
1) To create an engaging overarching narrative that would allow my niece to enter that wonderful zen-like state produced by easily accessible cadence and imagery;
2) To create a series of technical poems that, as Fiona matures, she'll be able to appreciate new aspects of the work every year (this also holds true for all readers, even if the intended audience can fit in a single, albeit currently tiny chair); and
3) To create a work to which I would be proud to attach my name, as well as something that my family can appreciate, as there are a few our-family-only references scattered about.
For purposes of full disclosure, I've marked the price of the book up $5. Sales proceeds will be sent to me -- minus a $1 transaction fee -- monthly. I intend on donating every cent of what will undoubtedly be a very modest profit to the charity of my sister's choosing, Heifer International. For more information on Heifer's work, please visit: http://www.heifer.org/site/c.edJRKQNiFiG/b.201470/?msource=kwg538
With all of that in mind, Merry Christmas, all, and I hope you enjoy it.
