Christmas story time!

One time, when I was an early teenager, my church asked me to be Mary in the Christmas Eve nativity play. It was a simple play, basically I would come down the ausle, give a speech telling a small part of the story, and then sit down in the stable set. Then Joseph would come down, tell the next part, and take his place in the set. One by one, all the important players would come down, tell their part of the story, and then pose in the set. As I went first, I had to sit down, still, for nearly the entire duration of the play.

As soon as I sat down, I suddenly remembered the joke in SpongeBob where Patrick was mad because he couldn’t see his forehead, and I spent the entire play trying not to bust out laughing.

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. Those who do not, have a good day regardless.

Towards the end of Menewood there is a scene featuring a Nativity play. I’ve had at least two readers question whether it could have happened—by which I mean readers scoffing that it could not possibly have happened. To which I was very tempted to respond: Prove it. (Which, as an historical novelist, is the only bar I need to meet: that something, no matter how unlikely, was at least possible.)…
