2011 Things
I'm not really big on resolutions. I figure, if I really wanted to start hardcore working out or investing money or learning French, I could do it in July or September instead of waiting for the New Year. Also, I have a long, detailed history of totally failing resolutions.
So, instead of resolutions, I'm setting some goals. Resolutions are things you MUST accomplish because you "resolved" to do so. Goals are something that if you accomplish, you get candy and DVD box sets and rewards. I like rewards more than guilt.
My 2011 professional goals:
-Edit and pretty up the Damn Historical Novel
-Write a new contemporary book
-Write a new urban fantasy book
-Sign a new contract
-Do more library/school visits
-Read more books– I tend to feel guilty when I do things other than writing. But reading is part of my job and something I enjoy– I need to read more than a small handful of books every month.
-Do three videos a week instead of just the promised two on Tuesdays and Thursday
-Do regular, old school, typed blog posts more often
Anyone else making resolutions or goals or the like?
Also– in a totally unrelated matter, my favorite podcast, Imperial Trouble, is giving away $25 in Threadless.com gift certificates to one of their twitter followers. You should follow!
