• In 2008, I resolve to give Mark Bonacorso more ink. He knows where to find the best duck in town.

• In 2008, I resolve to sell a lot of copies of my first novel, “Gross Misconduct.” It’s a coming-of-age tale set in Canada and it revolves around the melodramatic world of Aury Treadway, who is destined for glory as a professional hockey player. Aury lives, loves and loses. Plus, it helps that he’s something of an idiot, and idiots always make the worst choices. Everyone loves to read about people in worse shape than they are, right?
