What? Why Christmas in July, Lee Strauss?
I found myself facing a conundrum while (or as Ginger would say, whilst) preparing to write the next Ginger Gold journal entry. In the flow of story, the next entry had to be December 24, 1912, but that didn't really jive with the reality of summer and July celebrations.
WWJD? Or in this case, WWGD?
