My Writing Resolutions: 2008

In no particular order:

1. Use the word often less often in my nonfiction writing.
2. Redo my author site.
3. Say no to writing projects I don't want to do.
4. Write at least one children's piece without a contract in place.
5. Identify publishers that might like to see my back-burnered novels. See if they wanna see 'em.
   
6. Apply for one writer's grant.
7. Cut back on some of the industry-related volunteer work I do.
   
8. Get intimate with all of my writerly software.
9. Flex my weekday schedule enough to enable me to sit in on the local Tuesday morning writers' group once in a while.
10. Address the bookshelf situation in my office.
