And the year's dwindled down to the last few days. For most, a time of both reflection, and looking ahead, when we stand at the edge of the old year and the uncharted new one. Some make resolutions, which to me seems nothing more than a wish list. Others have goals, which implies making a run at something.
This year, I'm going to plan.
Life thew me some curve balls at the beginning of this year, which I've briefly mentioned, but I don't throw my problems into the ether for all to see. It may make me seem standoffish, but actually, I see it as being positive. I'm not going to dwell on the downside of it. Things happen for a reason, I believe, and for now, they are as they need to be. Sorry to be cryptic, but enough said.
But the loss of writing time really threw me. I did manage to finish some stories, and I'm happy about that. I have many more WIPs awaiting me, and I plan to tackle them as time allows.
I also plan to be more organized, not only with my time but in general. I wasted too much time this year because I wasn't.
I also plan to read some of the dozens of books I've accumulated. Literally, I have about fifty that I really want to read, and they're either loaded onto my Kindle or stuffed into the bookshelf beside my bed.
Most importantly, I plan to hold onto my dream. After waiting all my life to realize it, I'm not going to let it slip away.
What about you? Anything in mind for the coming year?
