#23: Winter Wonderland
By the time the holidays have passed, and the first week of January is in full swing, it's impossible to deny one fact any longer: winter is here.
Shorter days and colder temperatures often mean more time spent indoors writing. This week, we suggest you sit by a window and let the wintery world outside inspire your newest piece of short fiction.
