“Plots in the Pantry” is a collaborative effort of Vancouver Island writers whose genres are wide-ranging, from science fiction to cookbooks. What they do have in common, however, is a love of writing, the beautiful part of the world they live in, and a love of Christmas. "Plots in the Pantry" contains eight Christmas stories, and eight Christmas recipes that refer to food mentioned in the accompanying story. The stories take us from Nanaimo to El Salvador, the wilderness to the big city, 1960 to 2025, and feature characters from young to old, providing truly family reading. “Plots in the Pantry” can be found both as an ebook and a paperback on Amazon (www.amazon.com), the “Writing in Progress” website (www.wipqb.com) as well as at each of the participating authors’ websites. There is contact info for each author at the back of the book. Thanks for reading and we hope you enjoy our work!
