Wasted Words: The College Daze

By Colin MacLaughlin

Lucas Lloyd has always played it safe: no drinking, no smoking, and no stories to regret-or remember. But when he arrives as a freshman at a prestigious Midwestern university in the shadow of a world forever changed, he decides it's finally time to break a few rules and see what he's been missing.

Wasted Words captures it all: the highs, the lows, and the beautifully messy moments in between. Told in snapshots, it's about the words we spill when we're wasted-on booze, love, or the fleeting invincibility of youth-and the ones we waste trying to make sense of it all.

Brutally honest and shamelessly relatable, Wasted Words is the story of stumbling through the uncertainty of college and into adulthood. Because growing up isn't about getting it right-it's about learning to tell the stories that come from getting it wrong.
