<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">Our story tonight is called Holiday Window at the Bookshop, and it’s a story about clearing out the pumpkins and setting up the twinkle lights on a rainy December afternoon. It’s also about old buildings with tall ceilings and heavy front doors, a dog asleep in a chair, paper stars and puddles among the cobblestones, and the promise of a new book to whisk you away somewhere magical.</p> <p>We give to a different charity each week, and this week, we are giving to <a href="https://weareempower.org/">Empower</a>. They provide children, teens, and young adults relief from grief and guide them through life following the loss of a parent.</p> <p data-pm-slice="1 1 []"><a href="https://shop.nothingmuchhappens.com/products/weighted-pillows">Preorder your own NMH weighted pillow now!</a></p> <p>Subscribe for ad-free, bonus, and extra-long episodes now, as well as ad-free and early episodes of Stories from the Village of Nothing Much!
