If the last year were a movie of your life, what would the genre be?
Oh heavens. Not anything you'd want to watch, it'd be so dull. Perhaps a comedy.
What were the two or three major themes that kept recurring? Jobs jobs jobs. I feel like everyone I know is either looking for a new job, or switching careers, or thinking about switching, or wishing to switch, or something. There's a lot of jobbiness on the minds of everyone.
What did you accomplish this past year that you are the most proud of?
Working consistently on my writing.
Getting back to consistent reading.
Consistently posting on my blog.
Finally going to Stratford.
What do you feel you should have been acknowledged for but weren’t?Nothing.
What disappointments or regrets did you experience this past year?
I was disappointed to discover that cats don't live forever!
What was missing from last year as you look back? A more goal-driven approach to my writing. You know... with due dates. That I kept.
What were the major life-lessons you learned this past year?
Whether or not I go through something shitty is, generally, in my own hands. Kind of obvious, and something I already knew... I've never been the type to blame others for my problems. But I think this year I became conscious of that moment right before one hits the SEND button (literally or figuratively) when one thinks: "Do I believe enough in what I'm about to do/say that I'm willing to weather the accompanying crapitude?"
That was sort of a boring questionnaire. I need a better one.
