Because it's the thirteenth day of Christmas...

[desperance]

On the twelfth day of Christmas, desperance sent to me...

Twelve mushrooms drumming

Eleven ghosts publishing

Ten pre-raphaelites a-writing

Nine cats reading

Eight androids a-cooking

Seven dragons eating

Six robots a-walking

Five gho-o-o-ost stories

Four new words

Three short stories

Two john barnes

...and a food in a string theory.

Get your own Twelve Days:

John Barnes? John Barnes? The footballer, or the novelist...?
