(I'd wish you snow, but maybe even the utterance of snow may lead us to feel disappointed that there isn't any, so I won't mention SNOW, SNOW, SNOW at all...) <BR/>Also happy new year! Happy St. Pancake's day and happy Easter! Sometimes I forget to send timely greetings, but not this year! Hurrah to you and yours, and thanks for all the entertainment.<BR/>Best wishes,<BR/>PaulAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00266156201156998028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-1166857674510599242006-12-23T02:07:00.000-05:002006-12-23T02:07:00.000-05:00Ahhhh.That made up for all the unhappy endings you...Ahhhh.<BR/><BR/>That made up for all the unhappy endings you ever wrote.

True, it shifts the focus away from Mike and turns the whole thing into a sort of origins story about the first girl Santa...but that might not be such a bad thing.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for sharing your stories with us.

The next story is already well underway and it's going well -- so remember to drop on by come January 1st.<BR/><BR/>Dear Simon,<BR/><BR/>Yeah, we'd like a bit of that snow -- our Christmas seems a bit drab decorated by yellow grass and brown puddles.<BR/><BR/>The title has bugged me since the beginning. Usually titles that appeal to me come to me very early on in the process, but I just couldn't find one that I liked for this story. <I>Pink Story</I> was a title of desperation, typed into Blogger as I posted the first chapter.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad it made some kind of sense in the end.<BR/><BR/>Dear Danimal,<BR/><BR/>That's so very nice to hear, and I'm touched and honoured that your kids got a kick out of it. As has been suggested elsewhere in the comments, perhaps next year I'll put out a print edition with some illustrations.<BR/><BR/>Dear John,<BR/><BR/>See my comment to the Danimal; thank you so much for considering the tale worthy to try distracting your offspring with. That makes the whole thing worthwhile for me.<BR/><BR/>Merry merry!<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/>Cheeseburger BrownCheeseburger Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384136287767500794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-1166801992054410082006-12-22T10:39:00.000-05:002006-12-22T10:39:00.000-05:00CLAP CLAP CLAP -- Bravo.I'm sitting at the office ...CLAP CLAP CLAP -- Bravo.<BR/><BR/>I'm sitting at the office with my son, and I printed all 12 chapters using the duplexer. With 3 hole punch paper, I put it in a binder, crossed out the vendor name, and wrote: <I>Pink Santa by Cheeseburger Brown</I>. He is no longer wanting to play games on the spare Linux PC.

They all sit riveted (6 of them ages 13 down to 3 years) just before bed and laugh and giggle along. They get mad when I come to the end of each night's part and want me to "cheat" and go on to tomorrow night's reading. The two oldest have demanded I read this each year. Congratulations, Matt, you've started a tradition at my house!<BR/><BR/>You have a sensational Christmas and make sure you love those kids and Astra.
