RE"WAX"ING TIMES
Steve Tucky – Editor
 Is this grouping beautiful
or what
? Picture this on the Head table at a Wedding Reception. It consists of
our 4" Falmouth, 3x7 Pillar, and our 6" and 3" Champagne Rose Rings. The total
cost of this grouping is only $92.60. The great part of this is you can get it
at no cost with a $300 party and 2 bookings. Talk about painless. Or better yet,
a pair of them, one for the bride and one for the groom
First of all I would love to
welcome Renee S. to my team, the LiteSavers. She is a recent hostess who
decided to make some of her dreams come true becoming a consultant. If averaging $35 per hour having fun could make some of your
dreams come true, call me and I will answer any questions you might have. It is
definitely a win win proposition, and you have NOTHING to lose. Think about
it.

surprises, giveaways, drawings for new products, the first look at the 2001 line

I am including something new with my
newsletters. It is a Wax Opera. There will be a chapter added every
month. Throughout the chapter there will be references to
specific
products or
candles in general. The first 10 people that call me or email me with their
answer to the number of references will get 10% off their next order or a 3-Wick
for half price at their show held within 30 days.
First I want to thank Brenda Ooms, a fellow
consultant. It was her idea for the Wax Opera and the title (which I LOVE).
Thank you Brenda for the great Idea. Brenda will be introduced later in the
storyline. Wait till you see how she affects the story.
HINT: Print up the story, grab your catalog,
light a candle, and see how many references you can find.

STEVE AKA MR. WAX
AS THE CANDLE

CHAPTER 2
Is that Princess Leigh, I
see coming. Yes, it is. But, who is that with her? No, it can't be,
could it, her son Kirk and her daughter Vanessa. The last time I saw them they
were wee little cherubs. Now look at him, a strapping young man, let me
see, probably around 18 by now. And her 16, with that cascade of flaming red
hair. Unbelievable how time flies. I knew them when Leigh was just a commoner
making ends meet. Remarkably she was making ends meet as her villages local
candle merchant. Not the exceptional high quality candles I sell, but
nice enough in a quaint kind of way (don't tell her I said that). Excuse me, I
have to run to meet her.
"Leigh, how are you?
Excuse me, Princess Leigh. It is great to see you. It has been way too
long." At that point I give her a big hug. I don't know if it is proper
etiquette, but so what.
She returns the hug and
looks me straight in the eye and tells me we have to talk later on a very
important matter. Well, with me being the "Ambassador of Information", I
couldn't let her drop it at that, I would go crazy. What I drag out of her
is that she sold her candle business to the local apothecary shop. Soon after
that folks started getting sick and some have died. She is afraid it is all
surrounding the candle business she sold. She made quite a profit on the sale of
her company, but now she feels the illness and deaths are tied into the candles.
She even went so far as to plant a spy in the Villa where the candles are made.
Her suspicion was that they were slightly poisoning the wicks of the candles, so
the folks who got sick would need the services of the apothecary. He had an
accident before he was able to report back to her and now she is afraid that the
new owners know she knows something and might try something to keep her quiet
about her suspicions. She has always been a paragon of virtue and style, so to
see her this upset was disturbing. I told her we would talk about this at length
and I would do whatever I could, to get to the bottom of this.
She quickly wanted to change
the subject, so she talked about her new life in her castle by the sea or "La
Mer" as she likes to say. She said she loves the solitude of getting up
early in the morning when the grass is still wet from the ocean mist and the sky
is brand new, full of possibilities. She loves to help people and this
position really gives her the chance to do just that. I asked her if she
wouldn't mind taking our Kingdom's sweetheart, Contessa Dianne DeCartier (who
looks stunning in teal), under her wing and help her with all she needs to do to
pass the "Queen Quiz". We all love the Contessa Dianne DeCartier (who looks
stunning in teal), so any help she can get will be appreciated by all. I will be
introducing Princess Leigh to the Contessa right away. Princess Leigh said she has a special teal dress for the
celebration of Queen Mabel's birthday which is tomorrow. You can feel the
exhilaration in the air. Princess Leigh of Venice takes her leave of me, heading
to her chamber. My head is spinning with the myriad images of what she has been
going through emotionally with her people. I hope I can help her get to the
bottom of the problem, as it sounds dangerous for her.
Here come's Lady
Sylvia of Cheehyville. She is the local tax collector. She took over the job
when her husband was killed in the Great Battle. Being tax collector is a job
most wouldn't want. She is a little corrupt, skimming taxes off the top, but boy
can she party. Wick Icarus, the Victorian Gigolo has his eye on her for
obvious reasons, a meal ticket. Normally she is too smart to let that
happen, but solitude can make a person do things they normally wouldn't do. We
shall see what kind of indulgence she succumbs to.
The celebration begins at
awakening tomorrow, so get a good nights sleep so you can enjoy everything in
store for us all.
