During Christmas, I like to read books with a Christmas theme. This year one of the books I selected was called Christmas Letters. The premise of the book is a love story. The main character's job is as a writer. During Christmas she writes people's Christmas letters for them. I would love it if someone wrote my Christmas letter. I actually have only done one form style letter. Usually, I just write a brief review of the year in the card. I would love to return to the big long Christmas letter. The reason I don't is that I never know what to include. I just don't seem to have to the knack of making my vacation turn into something found on a brochure. I can't make my life's little moments sound like my crowning achievements. Some people can. I love reading them. It sounds really interesting, I can peek into their life. Somehow, my going to Trader Joe for groceries, growing my hair really long for Locks of Love, and my ability to do my own taxes doesn't seem to translate into good reads. Maybe next year.Wednesday, December 5, 2007
