On the Twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me,
A six-figure deal for my trilogy…
Eleven full requests…
Ten-page critique from JK Rowling…
Nine more beta readers…
Eight adverbs permanently erased from my memory…
Seven drafts that auto-revise…
Six days alone with my work in progress…
Five golden story ideas!!
Four more hours before my laptop dies…
Three agents offering representation…
Two cups of coffee…
And a writing hut on an island in the South Seas!
Unfortunately since I’ve yet to receive my magical auto-revising drafts (amongst other gifts), I’m going to be tackling another round of revisions advised by the agent over Christmas break. Therefore I’m taking a blogging hiatus from today through January 2nd!
I hope you all have a fantabulous Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Cute list!
I'm not sure if I want three agents offering representation. What if they're ALL totally awesome? I'd be ripping my hair out trying to figure out which one to choose.
Good luck with your edits and I hope you and your family have an amazing Christmas, Katie.
I'll take the five story ideas!
Have a wonderful Christmsa.
Love these. They made me smile. Thank you!! (And best of luck with those revisions. I had not idea. YAY!!)
Fun post.I'll take any one of the above and all twelve would be nice. Merry Christmas.
Oh, I loved that! I so want self-revising drafts or whatever you called it. You're so creative. Actually, I want EVERYthing on that list. Merry Christmas and merry edits! I'll be, hopefully, working on my latest manuscript while COMING HOME is edited by a friend. Eeek!
That is brilliant! I wish I'd thought of it.
Good luck with revisions and have a great Christmas and New Year!!!!
Fantastic! I need my drafts to revise themselves too. Good luck with getting those rewrites ready for that agent. Exciting!
Great list, Katie! I hope you get every one of those for Christmas :)
Good luck with your revisions and may you and your family have a very Merry Christmas!
Let me know how that 10 page critique goes. Happy holidays!
Ha! Very cute! I don't know if I'd want nine more beta readers, though. Have a lovely holiday season!
Love your version of the 12 days of Christmas.
May this be a good year for you!
Hurrah, Hurrah! I take it, or any part of the writer's days of Christmas. Happy revising.
I love this list!
Have a great time, and I hope those revisions go well!
Great list, and yes I was singing along :-)
How true your list rang with me :-)
I dreamed of a falling star that I could wish upon to make it come true. But then, well, I opened my eyes and remembered I was still at work lol!!
Wishing you and your family the best holidays. Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
I hope my true love gives me these 12 things for Christmas, too! Enjoy your holiday hiatus, Katie. Merry Christmas!!
Crazy! I was just thinking today about what hubs should get me for Christmas. I think I went through everything on your list... hmm. :D <3
That was super cute! I want a writing hut. :) Have a great time off!
Fun! I just want to add me too to all of these. If Santa brings these to you, please tell him I want them too.
Enjoy your break.
Good luck with your revisions, and hope you and your family have a fantastic Christmas.
Enjoy your break, have a Merry Christmas, good luck with those revisions, and we'll see you in the new year!
