I feel like I need to add more holidays to my stories to give them some more depth. With fantasies & sci-fi stories, they don't always have the same holidays, so I have to go though some extra steps making up new/different ones.

It's something I have to remind myself. I often have to prep the stuffing for the turkey while the family is still opening all the presents Christmas morning! Maybe this year I'll do it the night before.

I would give my MC a messenger bag. She carries a lot of stuff around with her.

My MC would love the holidays. She might need someone to remind her to relax and not do any work though. My MC enjoys cooking and baking.

I'm close to finishing the draft of my fantasy novel. I also did the first round of revisions for a sci-fi novel.

That sounds fun. We often watch a movie at home after dinner.

On Christmas Eve, we usually get take out food for dinner because we do so much cooking over the following days.
