On the—there is no thirteenth day and that’s good because I need to have a talk with my true love over his insane choice of Christmas gifts! Popsnakes!
Anyway, let’s all sing it together this holiday season. While Grammarly is going crazy underlining all the mythicals in this song see if you can find them in my Tales of Enda. At least eight of them are in Sargon The Not So Great. You’ll have to wait for the other two novels (coming next year) for the rest.
Here’s a hint. You can find the two running loatrons in my short stories The Loatron in the Woods and Fair Trial. One is probably chasing after the other.
