Just to remind you, my short Troubleshooter Novella "Trouble at Christmas" is still out there. Set right after the Troubleshooter ends, Paul returns home to Welcome, Montana, to visit his dad and old hometown friends. But of course, Troubles get into trouble constantly, and his father is no exception.

You can read it in different form or sizes, here are your options:

Make my day option: Buy the short story in my Troubleshooter Novella collection "Pieces of Trouble", available online at almost every book and eBook outlet (among it Amazon, Google Play and Apple iBooks). It collects four short stories from the various life stages of the onehanded ex-spy Paul Trouble. Among it, of course, "Trouble at Christmas"

The support the artist option — "Trouble at Christmas" was the first novella. I just published it as a sort of promotional article as a stand-alone novella. You can buy it at Amazon.

The cheapskate version: head over to the online reading platform Wattpad. I have some stories published there to tease readership, among it the very short story "Trouble at Christmas". For free. Really. No strings attached. Like I wrote: the cheapskate version.
