Christmas Campfire Companion, a new release from Port Yonder Press, offers readers of westerns a place to come in out of the cold. 14 award winning Western authors have combined forces to quell injustices with vivid tales of hospitality and compassion.
One of my favorites was Maple Jack and the Christmas Kid, by Matthew P. Mayo. Mr. Mayo gives Maple Jack a powerful gift of description, matched only by his compassion for his unexpected guest.
If your preconceived idea is that every western must end in a shootout, author Kerry Newcomb puts a hilarious creamed onion twist on that. Armageddon Louise may run for sheriff unopposed, in the next election.
This book of short stories could easily bring new readers to the genre, and the western reader in your family will treasure it.

Each story is a gift, and each a take on Christmas . . . a western Christmas. I'm honored to have a small part in it. A small bio of the authors is on my blog at [...]

Christmas Memories
A really good selection of Christmas Western short stories, some which I wished were complete books. I truly enjoyed being reminded of Christmases past.

Christmas Campfire Companion
This book was given to my husband by me as a present. He is an avid Louie Lamour and Zane Grey fan, so was skeptical of the book. Read more

Westerns and Christmas combined - Better than I'd imagined.
Westerns as a genre have always been fun, even if I tended to look at them as throwaway fiction. Still, they provided tension, drama, and good ol' shoot 'em ups. Read more
