Thanks for always having helpful content on your blog. I love lists too.

Long enough that you feel like you've accomplished something, but short enough that you're not debilitated for a week afterward (not to mention the training, like you said). I'm hooked on 13.1. You will be too. I did one last November and am doing another this February and another in April. GO, MAN, GO! You can do it!Heathterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05476468396217779245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4693401219959272564.post-15694431932658056752011-12-31T23:14:36.449-05:002011-12-31T23:14:36.449-05:00One of my goals is to subscribe to your blog!

I'm actually reading the articles in the front and finding really helpful info about online writing. <br /><br />I suppose one of my goals is to determine what planning and executing I need to do so once May gets here I'll be freelancing fulltime when I'm not teaching this summer.<br /><br />I teach in the Creative Writing Department at LaVilla School of the Arts in Jacksonville, FL.Cheryl B Leminehttp://www.cherylblemine.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4693401219959272564.post-14214952090602241982011-12-31T16:20:09.534-05:002011-12-31T16:20:09.534-05:00Dear Bob, I didn't know before that you are a ...Dear Bob, I didn't know before that you are a poet.

And getting rid of credit card debt is on my list of things to do in 2012, too.

But besides that, you inspire me to get some work published.<br />For many years, I fancied myself a writer, but kept throwing out pages and pages of what I thought was garbage. Then, a few months ago, I had a renewed vigor. I started work on a large project and I finally realized that I should actually edit my work and continue working on it.<br />While that large piece of work is on temporary hold, I have decided on submitting some short stories to magazines to make a name for myself. I am now 6,000 words into my first short story and 1,000 into my next. The prior I plan on finishing by the end of January and submitting to Fantasy and Science Fiction Magazine. The latter I am hoping will come out a bit longer and (as of now) hope to publish as my first book.<br />Good luck to you and your goals for 2012!Matthew Schultznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4693401219959272564.post-16505307662508004002011-12-30T11:22:46.286-05:002011-12-30T11:22:46.286-05:00Good luck!

What wasn't completed to my satisfaction in 2011 can now be re-packaged for 2012. As you have done, reviewing why certain goals weren't accomplished is a major part of creating more attainable goals going forward. I've chosen 5 "Major Themes" for the year - Working toward Financial Serenity; Becoming more Fit and Healthy; Creating a Peaceful, Attractive Home; Competing my horse successfully (I've been out of the show ring for 8 years); and working toward being a commercially successful writer. (Meaning selling at least some of my work). I sold my first piece in 2011 - so it was a great boost and I'm looking forward to all (or at least most) of the "Action Items" that fall under my 5 categories.<br />Best of luck to you in 2012!Maureen Haweshttp://www.thehorseylife.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4693401219959272564.post-23826942512498864892011-12-30T10:17:00.705-05:002011-12-30T10:17:00.705-05:00Great list, and I love your optimism!
