Three favourite retellings of classic love stories
Collections of Christmas Short Stories
My mum grew up in the West Country. She once told me an anecdote of a lady who lived in her village, who had five sons, all from different fathers. They lived in a council house with wallpaper peeling off the walls, and they struggled for enough food to eat and heating to keep warm. But. She loved her sons and her sons adored her. They were a family. The lady was loved and well looked after in her later years by her sons. I believe love is at the root of everything. This story has always stuck with me and was my inspiration for The Other Side of the (Christmas Train) Tracks.
This anthology of Christmas-themed, short stories centres around love. Some of the stories are amusing, some are heart-warming, a couple are thought-provoking. So put your feet up, grab a hot chocolate, tea or coffee, and let me transport you to a world of my imagination.
I have a few favourite Christmas stories. I remember particularly The Little Match Girl. My parents didn’t have much money growing up, so at primary school, I was rarely allowed a book from the book catalogues the school sent home. Except. One Christmas my mum ordered The Little Match Girl for me. Not only was the book special because I was almost never allowed books from the catalogue; it had beautiful artwork (I can still see the pictures in my mind of a little girl huddling up against a match); but because I could empathise with the little girl, and it all seemed so unfair. I was also blessed to have a granny who loved me, just like the little girl. I know we are watched over by those who love us – don’t you just feel the same in your heart of hearts?
Snow Angels, the title story, is a modern take on The Little Match Girl. Hopefully, it will remind us that ultimately, we are loved, be it in this world or the next. And that someone is always watching over us.
The title story ‘Three Christmas Presents’ is loosely based on A Christmas Carol. I like the normality of the supernatural in Dickens’s work, I like the message of goodness and charity (charity can also be translated from the Greek word agape as love), and I like the idea that we’re all redeemable. We all get a second chance if our heart is truly in it. In this story, Fiona meets her three ghosts of Christmas: present (death of love), past (uncharitable behaviour) and future (righting her wrongs), and it is only by showing agape that she can unlock her future and access her second chance.
I have made so many mistakes in my relationships that I hope, in these stories, you can sympathise with the themes I’ve brought forward and, as I am ever the romantic, you will hope with me for the characters to face a future of love as the stories unfold.
True love is rare; it is heart-stoppingly beautiful. In these stories, I gift it to you.
