It’s St Nick’s turn for an adventure down the rabbit hole. There he meets the Mad Hatter, recast as a high-fashion, reindeer-loving tea party host; the White Rabbit, an endearingly scatty and forgetful character; the Queen of Hearts, a Scrooge-esque tinsel-hater, her antagonistic sidekick, the Cheshire Cat and Alice herself, whose kindness helps St. Nick save Christmas.

The Night Before Christmas in Wonderland

KINGSDOWN is a short story that looks at the apathy and ignorance of the United Kingdom towards the refugee crisis. When Jack and Kate are walking along a Kent beach to meet friends and watch England play, they are confronted by Maryam, a refugee who has braved crossing the English Channel while heavily pregnant. Jack is faced with the decision to break with this paradigm and Kate’s more extreme nationalism by finding his inner shared humanity with Maryam. Will he stand up for someone who needs help at the cost of that which is most dear to him?
