Dec. 21st is the shortest day of the year - and, naturally, National Short Story Day. Here to celebrate is my "murderous tour of New England" short story collection, Clues & Chills.

books2read.com/u/bW2PvM

#nationalshortstoryday #newengland #shortstories #mysterybooks
A New England fall scene with fallen leaves of brown and red at the base of an oak tree, with a blue teapot shaped like a fish with blue scales and a curved tail, and a book standing in the leaves. The book's cover is varying shades of blue and features a woman running in blueish snow. The authors name - Janet Raye Stevens - is in white letters at the top of the cover and at the bottom is the title, Clues & Chills: New England Stories of Mystery & Murder.

The things I didn't know! Besides Solstice, and for me in the northern hemisphere, the shortest day of the yeat, it is also National Short Story Day - how appropriate. And the longest night of the year for reading some great short stories...yes I know many of you have other plans for the longest night 😉 ❤ Shameless self promotion on Small Business Saturday, Paper Lantern Writers are a collective of historical fiction authors, some small and hybrid press and some entirely self-published, with two award winning anthologies and our latest in he running =----> https://paperlanternwriters.com/books/ #paperlanternreaders #paperlanternwriters #annembeggsauthor #historicalfictionbooks #historicalfictionlovers #nationalshortstoryday #histfic #smallbusinesssaturday #thedragonlord #beneathamidwintermoon #thedragonlordawintersolsticetale #unlockedapaperlanternwritersanthology #destinycomesdue
