Let this be the year you finally say
You are a writer in your own special way
To early mornings and late nights
To endless discussions and trivial fights
*
May you finish what is unfinished
May you publish what is unpublished
Focus on the things that matter
Remember nothing arrives on a sliver platter
*
Rise above the little things
Don’t kill all your darlings
Let 2014 be the best year it can possibly be
Contiune to write and be free
