If that isn't appealing, you could always take up cutting.

I just watched his "This is Water" commencement speech for an Informal Logic class. Enjoyed it quite a bit. Didn't know anything about him prior to that. Checked the book store, and he's written quite a bit. Are his novels any good? Anything I should definitely read? Anything to stay away from? I prefer fiction over nonfiction.
