No one plans to fail. Or so my mom used to say. I know it is not the best attitude, but it's mine. Calls are made by Mar. 21st, it's going to be a LONG month!
No one except me.
I am the most pessimistic person I know. Always with the doom and gloom. It adds to the sarcasm quite nicely. I have had some pretty poor luck throughout my life and so I just always assume the worst.
It reminds me of that character on Gulliver's Travels, "We're doomed, we'll never make it out alive" Ok, so I am completely dating myself and no one probably remembers that but me. But that little Lilliput guy is me! I'm that guy in a crowd.
With my Chatterbox entry safely delivered to Idaho, I have already began the list of reasons why I won't win. It wasn't hard. What made it simpler is I got a lil peek at some of the essays and let me tell you, I don't think I went in the right direction.

who cares if you don't win or you don't have the latest and greatest...if you like your book that is what matters...i use to worry about "keeping up with the jones's" but now i don't care if it makes me smile then that is all that matters. I am sure you work is great...you should post some pages so we can all give you some "Spazz-Praise"..
Oh my goodness - well i just think that is simply amazing that you even entered it. I want to see the album!
