My Reverse Bucket List

I don’t remember where I saw this idea. But I thought it was brilliant, the idea of writing a reverse bucket list. Things I’ve already crossed off what would be a bucket list item.

1. Meeting my birth family.
2. Publishing a novel.
3. A dog named Bacon (this was actually on a bucket list I wrote about fifteen years ago.)
4. See the world.
5. Learn a new language. In the interest of full disclosure, I learned it—and have now forgotten it. Note to self: practice is important.
6. Attend a book signing.
7. Meet a celebrity.
8. Learn a new instrument.
9. Make profiteroles (they were fucking amazing).
10. Meet my publisher & editor (they live in Australia.)

What’s on your reverse bucket list? What’s something you’ve accomplished?
