Last December, my novel "The Haircut, A New Year's Tale" debuted on Amazon for Kindle to rave reviews. It's a whimsical, sensual fairy tale for adults that begins two days after Christmas, 1948, in a city that could be New York. As evening falls, a young woman, desperate to save herself, goes to a barber shop and tells the handsome, young barber-- who has heartaches of his own-- to give her the worst haircut either can imagine. He refuses-- until she wears him down. And before the night is over, something much more than a haircut happens between them.

The novel also introduces Misha, the New Year's angel, who's a lot more helpful than Santa Claus, if you ask me.

The Haircut, A New Year's Tale can be read any time of the year-- and has been. But I'm hoping it will become a perennial holiday favorite. And to help it along, I've reduced the price from $2.99 to just 99 cents on Amazon. Smashwords customers can use the coupon code BW76N to get the discounted price. The links are below.

Hope you'll give it a try, and let me know what you think.
