Christmas in July Blog-a-thon

If you’re a Christmas writer or just a lover of all things Christmas we invite you to participate in MyMerryChristmas’ Christmas-in-July Blog-a-thon 2020. This is your chance to share some merry thoughts on our big Christmas stage.

Until July 31st, 2020, we will be accepting written articles on the following topics:

• The Most Important Christmas Movie of All Time – Christmas movies are as big a tradition as mistletoe and holly. Everyone seems to have a favorite. But for as much as they make us laugh and cry, Christmas movies can also make us think. This topic explores not just what makes a Christmas movie good but what makes a Christmas movie important.
• How I Plan to Spend the Covid Christmas – Nobody knows what to really expect of Christmas 2020. Will we be in lockdown? Will there be Christmas concerts? What about Christmas shopping? Can we see Santa? Everyone is thinking of alternative ways to Christmas. What’s yours?
• Things my Grandparents Taught Me About Christmas – Christmas is about family and it is the one time of year where real lessons are passed from one generation to the next. Pay tribute to your family by sharing what they taught you.
• The Best Christmas Ever – Memories of Christmas are meant for sharing. In this topic we want you to tell your favorite Christmas of being a giver, a receiver or just a believer in what you recall as your best Christmas ever.
• Christmas Miscellaneous – Surprise us! If you’ve got a Christmas topic, an opinion, a memory or anything Christmas related that you feel folks will appreciate, share it!
