Produktbeschreibung

What happens when your Christmas tree has a mind of its own-and it's hungry?

In this LGBTQ anthology of light horror and festive chaos, Christmas trees turn deadly, friendships and romances bloom in the most unlikely of places, and survival isn't always guaranteed.

I Hate When My Christmas Tree Tries to Eat Me is a collection of three light-hearted, comedic, LGBT cozy-horror stories with a dash of quirkiness, all set in the same chaotic holiday season. Though each story follows different characters, their paths cross in surprising ways as they all face the strange, sinister events unfolding around them.

Story 1: Menacing Trees & Mixed Signals Hannah's Christmas job at Dirk's Tree Farm seemed simple-watch the trees, collect a paycheck, and survive the season. But when the "baby trees" start acting up and her creepy bosses grow more menacing, she quickly realizes this isn't a typical holiday gig. On top of that, she's unsure if her bold coworker, Tali, is being friendly or flirting. As the chaos at the farm grows, so does the confusion in her heart.

Story 2: O' Christmas Tree, Why Are You Trying to Kill Me? Ash is just trying to impress his girlfriend Marcie with the perfect Christmas tree when his life spirals into chaos. Unbeknownst to him, the tree he brings home is one of Dirk's Tree Farms' more sinister 'pets.' As the decorations go up, so do the stakes in Ash's quest to survive the holiday season. Between keeping his overconfident cat from getting them all killed, preventing the house from burning down, and somehow holding onto his relationship and limbs, who knew picking the perfect tree could turn into a fight for survival?

Story 3: From Horror to Home: A Carnivorous Tree's Journey Quixquira, a sentient man-eating pine tree, dreams of becoming a "real Christmas tree," one that humans admire and decorate with love. But her quest for belonging takes unexpected turns as she forms an unlikely bond with a lonely little girl named Lily. What starts as a comedic misunderstanding grows into a heartfelt journey of friendship, family, and finding one's place-whether you're human or not. Who knew surviving Christmas could be so... complicated? Grab some cocoa and hang on tight-your holiday trees have other plans this year, and they're not the only thing sprucing things up this holiday season!

***This is a 45,000 word LGBT themed anthology with light swear words and mild horror violence.***

Autorenporträt

Studied writing at the "School of Hard Knocks" and "University of Life" getting my degrees in "Fine Arts of Common Sense" with a minor in "Epic Ass-Handing."

Being pansexual, I enjoy writing a variety of LGBTQ characters with diverse backgrounds and sexual orientations. Throw in a dab of magical realism, and romance for good measure, and some real-life conflicts to overcome, and you get 'Black Rose' original stories.

I read a lot to keep the voices in my head quiet. I write a lot to keep the voices alive.

When I'm not writing, I'm supporting my husband and wife, (I'm polyamorous), and taking care of family minions. You might also find me crocheting, hiking, watching Deadpool or South Park yet again, or just reading a good book.

Yours,

Mary Black Rose
