Thursday 13: Thirteen Things I Wanted For Christmas But Didn’t Get

  1. A solid three-book contract for Out of the Frying Pan plus two connected books, with promo commitment from the publisher.
  2. A new sofa for our media room, that’s comfortable to sit on, comfortable to sleep on, and will fit the space and style.
  3. A personal chef.
  4. New sofa and chairs for the living room, comfortable and yet somehow also Victorian in feel.
  5. Lawrence Gowan. Just for a night. Or maybe a weekend. I’m not greedy.
  6. Unlimited free air miles to visit family, friends, and Styx shows all over the world.
  7. To have completed Ghosted by the end of 2007.
  8. An agent.
  9. Fat-free cheese that tastes like full-fat cheese.
  10. The ability to write like Guy Gavriel Kay crossed with Nora Roberts.
  11. A flying car. Weren’t we supposed to have those by now?!
  12. Seeing my family, who are all on the opposite coast.
  13. A self-cleaning house.

Ha! I knew she'd find a way to fit Styx in there somehow!

You didn't get your personal chef? *Hands on hips*

Not fair. Not fair.

Happy TT!

I would also like a personal chef, a maid, and new living room furniture. Probably won'tt have any more luck getting them for my birthday than you did Christmas, huh? ;)

Gwen - Hah! I can always find a way to fit Styx in! :-D

Gina - I'm pretty sure the cats are, once again, going to ignore Mother's Day completely. Ingrates!

Heather - Well, we can always dream, can't we? ;-)
