New Year's Resolutions
Jan. 3rd, 2011 11:26 amI did pretty well with last year's goals. Here are some goals for 2011:
1- Try to be a good father, husband, and friend.
2- Try to take better care of myself. I'm becoming sedentary in my middle age. The scale hasn't changed much in ten years, but I look thicker in the middle. My family has a history of heart disease and my daughter isn't getting any smaller. Therefore, it's time to start exercising each day for at least 30 minutes. I have the time; I just need to do it.
If anybody has any suggestions for a good at-home routine, feel free to leave a link. Right now I'm just doing the stretching and calisthenics I remember from high school gym class.
3- Here are my writing goals:
Revise my short story "Virus."
Submit "Virus" and continue submitting "Pediatric Wards" and "Nostalgia Trips" until they get published or I exhaust all of the markets.
Revise The Scarlet Queen (this will include sending it to readers and a second set of revisions).
Query agents for The Scarlet Queen.
Write at least two new short stories.
Begin writing the new novel.
Work on the new nonfiction project.
4- Continue my work as![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

That seems like a reasonable list. Wish me luck! :-)
