Please give a big welcome to my awesome friend and romance author Stacey Wilk! Stacey is a fabulous writer and also one of my top conference roomies. We always have a great time when we are together. Stacey is here to share about Christmas in July and her Christmas-themed book, Whispering Christmas!
Did you know that “Christmas in July” was introduced in the 1940 movie, Christmas in July? It was not a new concept that retailers created, trying to take advantage of early sales. They didn’t wait to jump on board to this fantastic idea, though. In 1944, the US Post Office and American Greeting Cards Company decided to get in the game.
And here we are, thinking about the most wonderful time of the year (can’t you just hear Johnny Mathis?) in the hottest month—at least where I live.
I love Christmas. The music, the baking, the shopping, the gift giving. Nothing beats a loved one’s facial expression as they tear away the red and green wrapping to find the perfect gift they didn’t know they wanted, but you did. You know that moment.
Because Caridad was so kind to allow me to spend some time with you, I wanted to share my love of Christmas in July. For a limited time, my Amazon #1 New Release, the book BookBub called “a charming second-chance romance,” Whispering Christmas, is on sale for $1.99
