G Younger: Blog

This is the time of year people make New Years Resolutions. The bonus interlude, to the Junior Year Part II story, features David's Uncle John. He talks about the process he went through to help David set his goals and how to achieve them. He provides some advice I would have wanted to hear earlier in my life.

Enjoy - Happy New Year

I wanted to send out a quick note to thank everyone that voted and felt my story was deserving of your scores.

I had a lot of fun writing it and, even though it doesn't have cheerleaders in it, I think it's a good read.

I want to also congratulate the other entrants. Good job!

I have to say I love the British. They have dark sense of humor. The video in this article could be the basis of a great book (offering to the world before I have to write it). The comments at the bottom are pure British Humor.

In today's chapter I tell a story about a canoe adventure that about get's my character's family killed. That is an actual story from my childhood. When our canoe shot into the woods and hit a tree head on I thought we were dead. The canoe swung around and the back hit another tree pinning us. We had to tip the canoe on its side so the water didn't roll in. I can laugh about it now...

My dad thought that if you didn't almost die on an adventure you weren't living.
