   I can see part of a story here, if a benevolent wish-granter has a   
   somewhat looser definition of "mine" than I do -- for example, if I   
   enjoy a novel and look forward eagerly to the sequel, the author's   
   case of the horrible awfuls goes into remission and he writes faster   
   and longer.   
      
   I suppose the story happens when the wisher finds out about it and   
   starts feeling guilty whenever an artwork disappoints him.
