I finished my book and went to GreenWay Press.
After a day, they sent me my book back. I sighed. This was my third revision. So I continued writing on my crappy computer,clacking the buttons on the keyboard. After a couple hours, I stopped and walked outside. It was forty degrees. It's not that cold. I observed my surroundings, trying to find inspiration. Thoughts about my mother, Megan Berry, Audrey, and Haley rolled through my head.
"You're a good person Noah. You deserve it." said Audrey
"You remind me of your father so much." said Megan
"Thanks for taking care of me." said Haley.
"Bastard was dulling the party."
My mother hates me. Why?
I went back home and drank some Hot Cocoa. I felt it run through me, spreading warmth to my body. I had to change myself. New Years wasn't so far away. So I pulled out a list and wrote on it.
1. Drink less beer.
2. Get new shoes.
3. Read more books.
4. Learn how to cook.
5. Pay bills on time.
6. Keep up with the news.
That's all I could come up with.
So I tucked the list in my pocket. How can I change myself? I went back to revising my book. I finished revising on the twenty-ninth of December and took my book in. I kept wondering how to change the bad things about myself.
Maybe I didn't need to change myself. I need to change others.
But how?
That was the question. How could I be able to make it up to Haley? How could I talk to my mother? The thirty-first was the answer.
