Inside Decemberlands... "The Bass Violin, or The Eight Musical Days of Sammy Grossmann" December 1957, The Bronx. Holocaust survivor and door-to-door insurance salesman Aaron Grossmann's lone connection with his past is the music he plays three nights a week at a small jazz club.

"The Legend of Bobcat and Bear: A Children's Story" December, Anytime, Grizzly Peak. When Santa's sleigh makes an emergency landing on a snow-covered summit, the fate of Christmas rests in the paws of a smart-aleck bobcat and a very sleepy bear. "Greg Blake Miller's beautifully written tales are about people with real blood running in their veins, in places we will recall for a long while, and in situations that are rendered with a knowledge of how humans (and, yes, even bobcats) are both fierce and frail at all times." - Kerry Candaele, Director of the award-winning film Following the Ninth: In the Footsteps of Beethoven's Final Symphony

Excerpt from The Miller's Holiday: Short Stories From the Northwestern Miller On rainy afternoons the garret was an inviting place where neighbors children often joined us in hastily improvised theatricals or in poring over forgotten books beneath the eaves. In the course of time an odd assortment of volumes found their way into the garret, crowded out as they were from the library shelves, and some of them, I believe, were heritage of another and older house with very much the same sort of garret and loved by equally inquisitive children as ourselves. Sometimes when the rain beat upon the roof we liked to imagine that the ghosts of readers followed the books of other days, and thereupon was invoked a fantastic game of shrill cries from darkened corners and, to the extreme discomfort of persons below, much stamping and scurrying across the bare floors. From attic enlightenment ranging between a defunct treatise upon "Breakfast Dainties" and an illustrated Isaac Watts, - from this library of chance the Holiday Numbers of The Northwestern Miller were held by the children in high esteem. Particularly fascinating were the illustrations of certain verses by James Whitcomb Riley, - an enormous flea battling with a night-gowned miller, - or the Don Quixotic covers of embossed wind-mill tilting; pictures remembered long after the text had been forgotten. Then; - "We skip twenty years," and the rain of many seasons patters over the deserted garret as dust collects on the books we knew. They were tumbled together when I found them again, some with broken backs and others wrought invertebrate by neglect, but the same intrepid miller glared at a monstrous and intelligent insect and Don Quixote, a trifle the worse for wear, wielded as of yore his futile lance.
