Christmas Cuts: Written by Christopher Gronlund. Narrated by Cynthia Griffith, Patrick K. Walsh, and Christopher Gronlund.

Most stories you’ve listened to, here, are polished first drafts.

Especially where short stories are concerned, I do not subscribe to the notion that the first draft of everything is shit.

Some thoughts about that, and how it worked with the recent Christmas episode.

Christmas Cuts – Three Stories

by 4 Comments

Last year’s holiday-ish 7-Stories episode, featuring a handful of micro-fiction, was well received. So this year, it’s another handful of stories:

  1. “The Crock,” narrated by Cynthia Griffith. A woman’s battles with her mother-in-law take an unexpected turn.
  2. “Greetings,” narrated by Patrick K. Walsh. An out-of-work special effects makeup artist gets a job as a big-box store greeter.
  3. “Naughty,” narrated by me, Christopher Gronlund. A naughty little boy gets what he deserves and learns about the the spirit of the season.

Content Advisory: “The Crock”: Swearing and family rivalry (mother in law vs. daughter in law). “Greetings”: Job loss and swearing. “Naughty”: Swearing and cigar smoking. Child torture.

Credits:

Music: Ergo Phizmiz and Chad Crouch

Stories: Christopher Gronlund

Narration: Cynthia Griffith, Patrick K. Walsh, and Christopher Gronlund.
