They exist all year:<br />1) Finish my current WIP<br />2) Land an agent<br />3) Have said agent score a book deal<br />4) Land a full-time regular job until I no longer need to work from the HUGE advance I'm going to get. Or the HUGE book sales.

In reality, I rarely make New Year's resolutions and even when I do, they are never personal goals, i.e., lose weight, exercise more, eat more fruits and veggies, etc.<br /><br />But I plan to set two writing goals for 2011. And if I achieve them, great. If not, that's okay, too. I won't beat myself up either way.MB Dabneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072264764613309071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4174226224096540850.post-48229994259779840532010-12-29T11:11:22.474-05:002010-12-29T11:11:22.474-05:00I'm so totally with you that January is a lous...I'm so totally with you that January is a lousy time to start self-improvement plans.
