As the sun sinks lower in the sky and the cooling day begs for something to warm it, some light to once again clarify its beauty, and some sound to break the quietness of approaching night, we light a fire. The crackle of the fire excites the silence, its light reaches into shadows, and it gives us warmth and reassurance. Stories do that. They reveal ideas to a thoughtful reader, provide warm company, and fill our imaginations with the sounds of another place and time. So we tell stories to communicate more than fiction and to cross that bridge that otherwise keeps us apart.Stories by the Fire is a compilation of short stories: some mystery, some romance, some Christmas-themed, some cozy reading for times when you want a little story to go with your cup of tea. Enjoy!
