It’s Still Christmas – In 2025 – How?

From the Cultural Critic, I give you this explanation:

Why It’s Still Christmas

Christmastide, explained


Culture Critic

Jan 01, 2025

Merry Christmas!

It might feel belated, but you’re still well within your rights to use this phrase today — and for the next four days as well!

That’s because Christmas isn’t just one day, but a 12-day liturgical season that begins on December 25th and ends on the eve of January 5th (the “12 Days of Christmas”).

Christmastide is an extended period of celebration that carries rich theological and cultural significance — marking not just the birth of Jesus, but his manifestation to the entire world.

Here’s how the season unfolds…

First, a little bit about my crazy book about zombie heroes, with a presidential commission as privateers.

Zombies charge first, ask questions later. Middle-aged, overweight, and undead, Diane Newby leads the paranormal privateers against criminals and corruption. Sailing to trouble spots too sensitive for the US government, with zombie strength and regeneration they beat bullies into submission. Aided by zombie turkeys, corgis, and bulls, vicious criminal geniuses fall before them. If Diane gets overwhelmed her lovely zombie bodyguards and romantic zombie husband come to the rescue.

Out of the blue, new foes appear. Or are they friends? Or both? The frenemies neutralize zombies and orchestrate world peace. They disrupt the economy and produce fabulous wealth. Even the greatest criminals and governments can’t stop them from dominating the world. Can humanity afford the price of peace?

All must surrender freedom to a not-so-benign dictatorship. Diane and the paranormal privateers must do the unthinkable to save humanity. But is it enough? In an explosive and unconventional ending to Andy Zach’s Life After Life Chronicles, you will learn what happens when the paranormal privateers meet the world’s greatest fear. And you will laugh all the way.

This is the first book I’ve read of Kimberly Rogers and I enjoyed it. It was a classic fantasy romance tale, based off the fairy tale ‘Beauty and the Beast’. But there’s a twist.

The Fae Lord Faustin is slowly turning into a beast, and he has a goblin tinkerer who replaces his non-working parts with mechanical ones. Quite horrible, actually.

This curse is thanks to a hag who cursed him because he didn’t do what she wanted.

Then for the female lead character, Solange Durant, who’s an escapee from the French Revolution (the novel begins in 1796). There, they persecute people with magic. Solange is a changling, half fae, half human.

Desperate for work and pursued by anti-magic mob, Solange finds her way to Lord Faustin’s decrepit estate. That’s when the novel really begins.

Reading this little novella was as delightful as eating a bite of baklava. The heroine, Wanda, with her familiar dog/corgi Wumble, is a careful and diligent student of alchemy. She’s not rich like the talented fellow student Lenar, or highly learned like the teacher Alaroz. But she has almost a perfect memory and is exceedingly skillful at following directions. Further, through her bond with her dog, her sense of smell is highly acute, which is perfect for finding and preparing ingredients.

When preparing her first portion, she is totally absorbed in the process, and all else fades. When her product is evaluated, she finds she has highly undervalued herself–along with the teacher and the rest of the class.

You can read this little progressive fantasy in a single sitting. Enjoy your bite of sweetness.
