Over Stories, But Shorter

Stories, But Shorter showcases the sprawling world of creative writing fiction/non-fiction and the beautiful people who choose to bare their soul on digital paper. Each guest author will get a chance to read their short story or selections from a larger story aloud. This is followed by a conversation on the topic of their work, inspiration, and heck, maybe just life with host and comedian, Cassi Jerkins.

Stories, But Shorter on "A Visit From St. Nicolas"

A special “Stories, But Shorter” holiday episode! We bring you the classic short “A Visit From St. Nicolas,” more commonly known as “Twas’ The Night Before Christmas” read by 28 people. This poem was first published anonymously in 1823 and later attributed to Clement Clarke Moore in 1837. Supposedly Moore composed this piece on a snowy winter’s day during a shopping trip on a sleigh. This poem is argued to be one of the “best-known verses written by an American.” “A Visit From St. Nicolas” is also widely regarded as the story that gave popularity to the Santa Claus character we know today and had a massive impact on Americans’ tradition of gift-giving. However you celebrate your winter days, we hope it is filled with love and you enjoy this classic tale. Enjoy! Our “Stories, But Shorter” readers in order: Cassi Jerkins, Amalia Aquino, Rian Kountz, Quinn Boyes, Joey DeMers, Karen Baughn, Cory P Willis, Katelyn Hempstead, Cara Meyers, Tim Neumann, Wayne Schmidt, Bryan Rainstein, Michael Rosenbaum, Leonard Jr. Smith, Lorraine DeGraffenreidt, Rachel Van Nes, Vic Michaelis, Max Sosna Spear, Joliene Bratton, Deborah Schmidt, Olivia Bratton, Jaclyn Chavira, Melia Mills, Feodor Chin, Clark Canez, Jen Curcio, Joey Clift, Rosie Leisure, Will Choi
