In this episode, the Universe hands me the gift of a great idea, and some good people to help me make that idea a reality.

This episode was a true Christmas miracle for me. I searched high and low for music for it, and I stumbled across The Perfect Version of "We Three Kings" by Derek K. Miller on the Podsafe Music Network. As soon as I heard it, I knew it was perfect.

It was the first time I'd dared to create an audio play, and I'm grateful to Sage Tyrtle of the Quirky Nomads podcast, and Bruce Murray of The Zedcast, who immediately agreed to provide the voices for Madame Sofronie and Jim; and to my Tech Guy, who agreed to narrate the story, even though he usually prefers to stay behind the scenes.

For that alone, he merits the gift of handknits.
