Taranis Growing up with a druid mother, the holiday season had been a little different for me. I didn't really do Christmas. But when my teammate's girlfriend brings along a bubbly redhead who seems interested in my lonely self, maybe this year Christmas would be different. Penny With no better plans for the holidays, I joined my college roommate on a visit to see her hockey player boyfriend. I expected snow, hockey, and a lot of time leaving the two lovers alone. I didn't expect a connection with his broody teammate, but this year, maybe I was getting something more for Christmas. This short story was previously available in the holiday anthologies Stockings Were Hung and Melting the Ice. It has been lightly edited since.

Settle in for a sweet treat with this classic Christmas story from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber. Emma Collins has always believed that the world is divided into two kinds of people: those who love fruitcake and those who don’t. She’s firmly in the second category, so it’s ironic that her first major assignment for the Puyallup, Washington, Examiner is a series of articles about…fruitcake. At least it’s a step up from writing obituaries. Her task is to interview the finalists in a fruitcake recipe contest, and that means traveling around the state. Actually…flying around the state. Local pilot Oliver Hamilton, who’s starting an airfreight business, has agreed to take her wherever she needs to go, in exchange for free advertising. Unfortunately Emma hates small planes—almost as much as she hates fruitcake. But in the weeks leading up to Christmas, Emma discovers Oliver is not quite the Scrooge he sometimes seems. It all reminds her that there’s something about Christmas. Something special… Originally published in 2005

He was Adam. He was straight. He was just my friend. We weren't actually dating. This was the year that my mom's guilt trips finally worked. I was going home for Christmas, although the prospects of this trip didn't seem too great. I hadn't been home since I came out as gay a few years ago, and I certainly wasn't planning on bringing anyone home with me. But then my straight friend Adam volunteered to come with me as a buffer between me and my judgmental family. Turns out he did too good a job because one moment my uncle is making a homophobic joke, and the next thing I know, Adam is kissing me just to piss him off. So now everyone thinks we're dating, and instead of correcting them, we're going along with it. Just me and my straight fake boyfriend. My straight fake boyfriend who is also super hot and who I now can't stop thinking about kissing. What could possibly go wrong?

This scholarly analysis of the music of Taylor Swift identifies how and why she is one of the early 21st century's most recognizable and most popular stars. By the age of 13, singer-songwriter Taylor Swift had already inked a development deal with a major record label. This early milestone was an appropriate predictor of what accomplishments were to come. Now a superstar artist with an international fanbase of millions and several critically acclaimed and commercially successful albums, Swift has established herself as one of the most important musicians of the 21st century. This accessible book serves Taylor Swift fans as well as students of contemporary popular music and popular culture, critically examining all of this young artist's work to date. The book's organization is primarily chronological, covering Taylor Swift's album and single releases in order of release date while also documenting the elements of her music and personality that have made her popular with fans of country music and pop music across a surprisingly diverse age range of listeners. The chapters address how Swift's songs have been viewed by some fans as anthems of empowerment or messages of encouragement, particularly by members of the LGBTQ community, those who have been bullied or been seen as outsiders, and emerging artists. The final chapter places Swift's work and her public persona in the context of her times with respect to her use of and relationship with technology—for example, her use of social media and songwriting technology—and her expressions of a new type of feminism that is unlike the feminism of the 1970s.
