New Year’s Resolutions
Posted by Ana Aragon on 30 Dec 2007 | Tagged as: Chit Chat
Yikes! After debating for over a week what my post would contain, I up and forgot to post it! Sorry, folks.
The week following Christmas has been a blur, hasn’t it? And here you are, reading a post when you should be writing, right?
Well, here’s your opportunity to write a little fiction (just kidding) about your own resolutions for this upcoming year.
I’ll go first. Setting aside my first few resolutions that revolve around my perennial goal to lose weight and/or get back in shape which, by the way, never seems to make it past January 15. I think it has something to do with the weight/shape I want belonging to someone who looks more like Angelina Jolie and less like me. After two weeks of looking in the mirror, I realize that’s not going to happen in this lifetime.
Okay, so here goes:
1. Quit procrastinating and finish the draft of my current WIP during January Jump-Start.
2. Get up ten minutes early, and use that time to organize my day before the day organizes me.
3. Write at least five days a week. (E-mails and posts don’t count…ouch.) I’m a writer, right?
4. Take one class on some aspect of writing at least every two months.
5. Stay active in my RWA chapters.
6. Congratulate my fellow writers on their accomplishments and help those who are struggling. Remember that I’ve been, and will continue to be, somewhere in that continuum and know how important it is to share both my successes and failures with someone who understands.
So what are your resolutions for 2008?
