title: In Time for Christmas -- a Novella
author:  Heather Blanton 
description: I started writing when I was five; my first tale was a ghost story that my mom typed up for me on a Brother typewriter. Over the years, I have worked as a journalist for newspapers, magazines, and blogs. I have also spent decades in the corporate communications field, marketing everything from software to motorcycles. (Did she really just say "decades"?) I grew up on a steady diet of Bonanza, Gunsmoke, and John Wayne Westerns. My most fond memories are of sitting next to my daddy, munching on popcorn, and watching Lucas McCain unload that Winchester! I love exploring out West and would happily spend all my time researching and exploring ghost towns till the cows come home. I live with my husband and two adventurous boys on a farm outside Raleigh, NC. They enjoy riding practically anything with four legs or two wheels, and being outdoors.

  For Susan Gorman, because she convinced me Blue’s story was not complete.
