I wish I was a proper author
A few years ago my friend Stef and I built a website on which people could make wishes, and grant each other’s wishes.
I say “we” built a website – in fact, Stef built the website and I provided moral support.
We used to do this sort of thing on a semi-regular basis, and it was really just a bit of a challenge to ourselves: “What can we invent and make in a day?” This was just one of those projects.
Interestingly, quite quickly, I So Wish built up a bit of a community. People liked to make wishes, and loved having them granted.
But they were not only wishing for ponies, lottery wins, romantic success and expensive toys – they actually started to use the site as a place where they could pour their hearts out, console each other and just generally be nice people.
