My favorite author, @jenniferlcroft, has brought you all a gift of a short story, just in time for the holidays! You can thank her, @hingstonolsen, and @kenyonreview!

I almost always wish I’d done things a little differently after publishing something, but I still really love this story, which first appeared in the @kenyonreview. Thanks now to @hingstonolsen for giving it a new life in the 2024 Short Story Advent Calendar as Present #23.
