Tips from yours truly:



Stop reading Cormac McCarthy
if you don't want to have apocalyptic dreams
of a world infested with valociraptors.

Don't fall in love with your students
because they always leave
and it will break your heart.

Inform your friends that the last few weeks in May
you WILL fall off of the face of the earth
because work is INCREDIBLY chaotic.

When summer hits there are no more excuses
for why your book isn't finished.
Face it, you may not be able to do this.
