Christmas Times Two is a story of two families on Christmas Eve. But once each year and just for this night, do their stories become one by the miracle of the magical Christmas Eve light!

Michael Schmerbeck, with Phyllis, his wife of 40 years, splits time between their horse farm in rural Bucks County, Pennsylvania and the Beach House in Fairfield, Connecticut where he specializes in Grand Children Spoiling! His writing achievements, over the course of his 45-year career in construction, consists of authoring thousands of business letters, material submittals, purchase orders and quite a few speeches to industry gatherings. It is easy to see his transition from his past into Children’s books as some may say that construction executives are child-like in many ways! Christmas Times Two is his first published story book and his second book, The Christmas Coin, is scheduled for release in 2024. Stay tuned!
