What Are My Writing Goals For 2011?

This was the question that hit me between the eyes at a quarter till 1 a.m. on the first day of 2011. I was sitting there trying to come up with a good answer to the question, one that contained the right amount of thoughtful planning and just a bit of wishful thinking thrown in for good measure. I wondered what sort of goals I should set. The more aspects of my life I wanted to make goals about, the more thought and introspection would need to come into play during the process. However, in the end it seemed smarter simply to jot down some good writing goals for 2011.

First, I hope everyone had a great holiday season. I enjoyed some downtime with my family and friends. Now that it is 2011, it is time to buckle down and get to work. I am sure that many of you have taken time to sit down and write out some resolutions for the new year. It's common enough. Even I have taken a little time to compile some preliminary goals that I would like to accomplish during the course of this coming year. I am all for fresh starts.
