We all make New Years resolutions. But we all know you fatties are still fat and you smokers still cough up gross loogies.
A) So I’ve made itty bitty goals and since I am telling the internet it makes things more official.
B) Get a job! I’ve applied to every job in NYC someone must want me.
C) Finish Writing a Book: I’ve been working on two projects, one specifically for this blog and another linked short story collection.
D) Read The Following books because I probably should have already:
- The Great Gatsby
- The Chocolate War
- JPod
- The Things They Carried
- Harriet the Spy
- Short Cuts
- Trailer Park
- A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genuis
- Me Talk Pretty One Day
- Sellevision
E) Cut down on coffee.
F) Figure out this insomnia.
G) Get into a new college with a good writing program.
H) Get something published, somewhere.
I) Learn to do something that I don’t already know how to do.
What are your New Years Resolutions?
My new year’s resolution is to artificially inseminate a walrus.
Why? Why not?
1. actually finish something i write.
2. stop calling people stupid all the time. even if they deserve it…because they’re stupid.
3. go to a uhh concert.
4. return home at appropriate hours.
5. stop being so passive.
i think they’re attainable. but who knows?
I think you could just lump cut down on coffee/figure out this insomnia into one resolution.
This year I want to sleep more, work less, and watch even more bad TV than last year. I’m going for the achievable angle with my resolution.
I resolve to buy any book you publish, and a nice Dr. Pepper to drink while reading it. No time restraints. Unless You or Dr Pepper go out of business. Or i die first. Then i aint buying nothing.
i think once E is done, F will follow. Man, I’d like to get in on H myself actually haha. good luck tatoes!
“Harriet the Spy” is amazing. Read it first. “A Heartbreaking Work…” is only eh. Save it til last.
Great Gatsby, Harriet the Spy, and The Things They Carried are all pretty good.
Good luck with the resolutions. I look forward to reading your novels
I think the publishing deal takes precedence, and you should keep it. After all, you don’t want Bruno and Keith winning, do you? haha. Keep it up!
Insomnia is for writing.
