My Word of the Year

Confession: I don't really care for WotY picks. When I do choose one, it's because of group pressure, and I forget what it is by the end of the day.

That said, 2025 has had its rough moments. While it was mostly good (2 book contracts, did lots of art, and received other nice news), there were also disappointments and general anguish about the state of the world.

So, with that in mind, I've decided to let the spirit of the word RESILIENCE guide me in 2026.

Just as JL Collins talk about FU money in his excellent book, The Simple Path to Wealth, I am determined to carry some FU currency with me when it comes to...well, everything this year.

And the incomparable Gloria Gaynor will be my guide!
