When I tell you that Miracle on 34th Street, It’s a Wonderful Life, and White Christmas are some of my favorite movies to watch, you get an idea of the type of soppy (and not so soppy) stories that I enjoy. Hey, if they’re Christmassy, they get a bit more leniency in the saccharine department. So it’s no surprise that I eventually wrote a story to fit in with such fare. Back in 1999, in the final issue of Dreamtime (the PMEB fan fiction webzine), I contributed a Doctor Who story starring the Seventh Doctor (anyone surprised?) and Mel. If you’re interested in reading Miracle on 23rd Street (or in some rare cases, rereading it) then click here. Thanks to elsaf and Steph for still keeping the Dreamtime website going.
My fave old Christmas movie is “The Thin Man”. Murder and booze for Christmas. 🙂
But for a really festive time, one needs to watch Trading Places. A longtime holiday family tradition. “Beef Jerky Time!” and “Merry New Year!” and all that jazz. 🙂
