I’ve always loved nutcrackers and have been collecting them for years, as well as loving the Christmas ballet, and I’ve wanted to somehow incorporate both of these into a book for years, and it’s never worked out … until now! Various versions of this story have been in mind for years, and when this idea popped into my head in December 2018, I knew it was ‘the one’, and I spent most of last year waiting to start writing it at Christmastime!
I really enjoyed writing about a traditional British Christmas and getting to relive so many of my own festive childhood memories – Argos catalogues, Monopoly, tins of Quality Street, and of course, Nineties foil decorations! Does anyone else really miss them?
If you enjoyed this story, please consider leaving a review on Amazon. It only has to be a line or two, and it makes such a difference to helping other readers decide whether to pick up the book or not, and it would mean so much to me to know what you think! Did it make you smile, laugh, or cry? What would you wish for on a magical nutcracker? What shop would you most like to visit on Nutcracker Lane? It’s Carmen’s chocolate shop for me!
Thank you again for reading. If you want to get in touch, you can find me on Twitter – usually when I should be writing – @be_the_spark. I would love to hear from you!
Hope to see you again soon in a future book!
Lots of love,
Jaimie
