Last Post In The Year 2007

The Year that was 2007:

This year was the year of finding renewed spirit for my writing. It has taken me several years to reach this level. Now when someone asks me what I do I say: “I write.” And I say it with pride and without qualifications.
No, I have not sold any of the stories I have written. But that didn’t matter to me this year. It was more important to look at what I needed to do to make myself happy.

So what are my “New Year’s Resolutions” for 2008?

Well, this year I will continue to work on the revisions of White Roses and Red Roses. The search for an agent will commence once the first re-writes are done. Taking a page from Jennifer Pelland, I am going to write 1 short story per month. There is also the continuation of The Roses Trilogy to plot and write. I will be working to see something of mine in print by the end of 2008 (or at least be able to say that there will be something in print) – be it fiction or technical writing. Of course continue to blog here.

Of course life will happen in between all that planned writing and it will be a challenge to keep myself on track.

For now I bid 2007 a fond farewell.
