Episode Details

Jack Ward opens up his latest book to share with the world two decades of Father Christmas Letters sent to his three sons, first Aedan, then Colm, and finally Rory from 1999 to 2018. These letters are lovingly compiled by Jack this Christmas and placed in a book available at Amazon https://a.co/d/ebijJdG for your perusal with illustrations from Madelyn Knight (his niece). Jack believes this collection of letters inspired by the same Father Christmas that graced Tolkien's nephews represent the most in-depth look at the North and has sub-tiled this tome "A Compendium of the North" for that reason.

Whether it's hosting the World Efl Conference, fighting off Snow Goblyns and Polar Giants, or making friends with Winter Dwarves and finding a new home to erect the North Pole, these epic tales in epistolary will bring a smile to your heart, and a glow from the real spirit of Christmas.

Beginning this week, Jack presents the first two letters from 1999 and 2000, a mere day before the birth of his second son!
