Granted. But all you can write in your book is poetry.


I wish that I could decide which parts of my WIP get to stay and which parts have to go.

Now you can. You just really, really don't want to.

I wish I could control weather like Thor, the god of Thunder.

Granted, but all you can control is rain, and now there is a draught.

I wish that all of you will have an inspired and accomplished writing day today.

Zap. You are now a respected author. Or rather, you are an author who is respected -- not for your writing, but for your graceful and courtly manners. Soon you invoke Martha Stewart's jealous ire... watch your back, there's a few tricks she learned in prison.

I wish I had a cute mystery-solving dog.

poof! not only is your dog cute, but it can solve the most complicated cases. this gains him much popularity and prestige and someone kidnaps him for an extravagant ransom..which you can't afford to pay..and without the dog around to help, the police never solve the crime. hope they're feeding him well...


i wish i could get pedicures every week.

Granted - you never ever drink another cup of coffee. You develop a taste for tea instead.

I wish for a home cinema system, and a lovely big room with comfy sofas to put it in. Oh, and lots of popcorn and ice-cream - Haagen Dazs.

Granted. All of those things instantly land on your neighbour's doorstep and you get to enjoy them vicariously - via the window.

I wish that we lived in a just world.

No problem. Poof!

[Curtain falls; curtain rises]

I kind of like it here in our little ant farm, don't you? Except I keep getting sand in my teeth, and I've lost the directions to my home tunnel.

I wish more of my incoming calls were from friends instead of telemarketers.

Granted. (cue music from Little Shop of Horrors)

I wish my inspiration and my free time would arrive on the same schedule.

Granted...but you're also going to lose your job to allow for this...

I wish Tom Brady would marry me and take me on a 5 year honey moon to the Bahamas, or something.

Granted but you're bored after the first week and you still have four years and fifty one weeks until you can leave.

I wish that I had read a different piece in my writing group today

You do, unfortunately you can't wake up now.

I wish my love triangle would work out in a way that everyone is happy and no one gets their heart broken.

Granted. But you're so happy now, that your face hurts from smiling too much.

I wish that I didn't have to go in to work on days when I wake up at 3 am, can't sleep then write til 6 or 7.

Granted. You have a wonderful new job doing customer service at the call in desk from 8 pm to 3 am. Since the Chinese customers stop calling about 2 am, you can sleep until 3.

I wish for either a wonderful breakfast or a terrific lunch!

Granted. You enjoy the most delish brunch. But since it happened to be a bit heavy, you have a terrible case of upset stomach.

I wish we had some rains here to get some respite from this scorching summer sun.

You have three weeks of very light but constant drizzle. Since the sun is still shining above the clouds it is humid and your hair is frizy and the drugstore just ran out of your favorie frizz control formula so now you are forced to saty inside in the A/C to keep your hairstyle nice. ( I'm sorry that wasn't nice, you are in New Dehli. When it rains in hot summer in DC, you get....blankets of humidity and a bad hair day is my only trick. I'm a bad genie))

I wish Paint's eyes were sparkly like Dawno's ears.

granted, Paint gets sparkly eyes but Dawno's ears are going dull.

I wish I had a bottomless wine glass.

Granted - now all your wine runs through onto the table and you are forced to suck it up with a straw.

I wish I had an indoor swimming pool.
