'Anything, Mr. Frenkel'

Teresa Nielsen Hayden tells a great story on her blog, Making Light: It seems that Tor editor Jim Frenkel was approached at a convention by an attractive young lady, who said, "Golly, Mr. Frenkel, I'd do anything to be a published author."

"Anything?"

"Anything."

"Then write me a good book."

I love it. Writing a good book is much harder than "anything," but it's also more possible.
