Happy New Year, friends. How will you start off the new year? I've been working on editing my manuscript. It's exciting to see the developments as I progress. The only problem I'm having is setting aside time to actually work.
With the new year, our group will be embarking on a new chapter as well. I think we all have high hopes for a successful and fruitful year. Fresh ideas, cooperation and understanding will be expected to this end.
I'm going to change the day of my blog because I've picked up a waitressing position Monday evenings. This is after hostessing for the lunch hour as well. Wednesdays will be better for me with my new schedule.
To start the new year off well, I'm asking everyone to bring their top five goals for 2011. By sharing our goals, the consensus may be helpful in guiding us toward completing these goals.

Time
Why is it when the days get shorter, my time seems to shorten as well? There seems to be no end to the list of things I need to do and no time in which to do it. Even my writing has suffered.
I started the NaNoWriMo challenge on November 1 with the full intent to finish. Things went well for the first two weeks. Now, according to the stats tab on my NaNoWriMo page, I won't finish the 50,000 challenge until Jan. 15. How sad is that?
However, many of the delays are of my own making. Parts of my life have gotten out of control and makes for difficult times at home. I need to take some time to sit down and re-evaluate what I want and what I need to do. This goes for my writing too.
My goal for January is to submit my current manuscript to one of the major publishing houses within the next month. I really don't want to have to put a buck in the kitty for not making that goal. HeHe. The one thing I will not do is overtax myself to achieve that goal. To that end, my head is beginning to ache. Must mean it's time to go to bed.
