  Emmy-Award winning writer and comedian Josh Gondelman’s collection of personal stories of best intentions and mixed results. 
  Josh Gondelman knows a thing or two about trying—and failing. The Emmy Award-winning stand-up comic—dubbed a “pathological sweetheart” by the New York Observer—is known throughout the industry as one of comedy’s true “nice guys.” Not surprisingly, he’s endured his share of last-place finishes. But he keeps on bouncing back. 
  In this collection of hilarious and poignant essays (including his acclaimed New York Times piece “What if I Bombed at My Own Wedding?”), Josh celebrates a life of good intentions—and mixed results. His true tales of romantic calamities, professional misfortunes, and eventual triumphs reinforce the notion: we get out of the world what we put into it. Whether he’s adopting a dog from a suspicious stranger, mitigating a disastrous road trip, or trying MDMA for the first (and only) time, Josh only wants the best for everyone—even as his attempts to do the right thing occasionally implode.  
  Full of the warm and relatable humor that’s made him a favorite on the comedy club circuit, Nice Try solidifies Josh Gondelman’s reputation as not just a good guy, but a skilled observer of the human condition.

  MITCH: Wings. That was the nickname they gave me in the lead-up to the Winter Olympics. I was ready to take home the gold for figure skating, ready to make all my dreams come true . . . all but one  . . . the dream of finding love. That dream ended the night I lost the only man I ever wanted. It was a moment that led to my downfall on the ice rink. And so I fled my hometown of Mulligan's Mill, determined never to return. That is until I get the call from Doc Morgan, letting me know that my sister's hoarding habit is getting out of control. Now it seems Mulligan's Mill is calling me back. Is it possible for a fallen hero to find his dignity once more? 
   
   
   
  GAGE: He was the rising star of the ice-skating rink. I was the captain of the hockey team with my eyes on an Ivy League scholarship. We had everything. Then one night I freaked out, pushed him away, and nothing was ever the same. In the years since Mitch left, my life was turned upside-down by family tragedy. Now, as the sole carer of my niece, I spend every waking hour working part-time jobs. I barely get a minute to think about my shattered dreams, but I still think about him. When I find out that Mitch is returning, the news triggers a wave of excitement and regret. Would I find the courage to talk to him again, or would fear get the better of me just like it did on the night I broke both our hearts?
