Well, here we are in late January. This is about the time when New Year’s resolutions either begin to flag or are verging on becoming habits. I try to take stock about this time and see how I’m doing. Since I don’t generally handle resolutions too well if I’m not meeting them–way too much guilt involved–I didn’t make any resolutions this year. I have goals instead.
I want to do well with my teaching, lose a little weight, and start a new writing project as soon as I get out the submissions for which I already have requests. I also want to get back into the habit at the gym. I made it a full week before Christmas, and then the holidays exploded.
Speaking of which, I also want to be more regular here with updates and the newsletter.
So far, I’m not doing as well as I’d like to be on any of those goals, but I’ve made progress. So I’d have to say I’m off to a reasonably good start.
What about you? Do you do goals, resolutions, or something different? Care to share?
One commenter will receive The Nightkeepers by Jessica Anderson, whom I’m hosting on the Romance Bandits blog on January 26.

Traditionally, I’ve done the usual “I resolve not to make resolutions,” but this year I’ve done the insanely optimistic and resolved to write two short stories or novellas and two novels. So far I’ve written one short story and am getting nervous about not having enough time to do everything else!
And that’s why I don’t do resolutions!
