Merry Christmas 2011 And A Few Freebies, Too

Mur Lafferty's profile photoFirst, we have 12 Days of Christmas Stories! from Mur Lafferty at Escapepod. If you like audiobooks (I listen to them while exercising, walking, washing the dishes, etc.) you might want to give these a try.

That’s all I got for now.

Merry Christmas!
