My people 45 x 365

The challenge: a year profiling people I have known, using a word count equal to my age. I'm taking weekends off!

Vincent Lam (who I don't know, but wish I did, for I'd like him to teach me some time-management skills)

It sounds like a good plot for a short story: ER doctor working on cruise ship in Arctic meets Margaret Atwood on board. He asks her to read his short stories, she does, and yesterday he wins the Giller Prize for fiction. Not The End.

"Excuse me, Ms. Atwood. I know you're on vacation, but... er... I'm writing this book. Would you mind looking at it for me?"

I'd like to borrow his balls. Or maybe his $40,000.

He works at my local hospital. I hear he gave a very classy acceptance speach.

Next time you're in the ER can you slip him some of your writing and ask him to read it?
