2025 Dreams and Resolutions

Happy New Year!

2025 is already off to a bright start, and with it, brings new ambitions and fresh enthusiasm to make an effort. I’m sure as it does every year, things will wane and I’ll either forget or lose focus on what I want to achieve by December. However, it’s the first of the month and I’m determined to give it a try.

This year, I’m trying something new by incorporating not only yearly resolutions and goals, but monthly goals. These are bound to change, of course, but hopefully will make them far more manageable.

I’d like to share some of them with you in the hopes that by making them public, I may be more inclined to follow through (and be held accountable by my regular readers… trust me, you will be needed.) There are other more personal goals I have, but they’ll be kept private for now. I’m also considering documenting the year with one photograph per day, but we’ll see how that goes…

I was hoping this year to join the Tasmanian Indie Authors Festival on April 12, but unfortunately, funds will not allow that when costs such as table fees, EFTPOS machines, stock, and other costs add up. However, I will be on the lookout for other author events and markets, so if you know of any in southern Tasmania, please don’t hesitate to share!

Love,
