Story, a Likely - Novel 42

Supporting one and a half families is not the ideal situation for a man who makes his living as a writer...unless he comes up with a book so certain to be a bestseller that he doesn't have to worry about money ever again. (Or maybe Mary will find a fella of her own who can start contributing to the support.)

So Tom's surefire bestseller, *The Christmas Book * is begun, and Tom's troubles begin. His editor quits, Ginger doesn't want to get married, Mary won't give him a divorce, his new editor announces she's pregnant (and quits), the woman in an iron lung enters his life, and a third editor begins work on the book. Then things really get complicated.
