It's 2010!

Happy 2010 Everyone!

I know it's a little late to be wishing everyone a happy new year, but I'll say it nonetheless. With a new year, comes a little sense of rebirth when everyone can begin anew and have the chance to change things they didn't get the chance to change the previous year. People make resolutions; I make goals.

Last year, I made specific list of goals for each month adding up to the larger group of goals I wanted to accomplish by the end of the year. I succeeded in half the goals I wanted to accomplish, an accomplishment I never reached in the previous years when I only set "resolutions." However, the un-achieved goals weren't so lucky. Instead, I transferred them over to this year and I'm making it my responsibility to see that they get done!

And to make it even more complicated for myself, I've made up two lists of goals, one for General/Life Goals and one for Writing Goals. I've amounted to have at least 4-6 goals on each list that I must accomplish by the end of the month. Here's to hoping it works! XD

A few goals for my writing goals for January are to:

• Write one short story a week.
• Submit at least one story to a publication.
• Finish the last 27 of the first 100 pages of my novel.
• Finish the rough draft to my play.
• Finish the rough draft to my screenplay.
• Post at least one entry to my blog each week.
  

Yes, you read correctly, one of my goals this year is to pay more attention to my seriously neglected blog. I've made it a goal to make at least one blog post each week which will up my yearly blog postings from 0 per month to at the very least, 52 posts a year (since there is 52 weeks in a year). So hopefully, you'll be seeing me around here a lot more often!
