2012 Goals

2012 Goals

The year 2012 is around the corner, and as such, I’ve been thinking about what I wish to accomplish in the twelve months that comprise it. I’m not one for resolutions, as they are pointless and often forgotten by mid-January, but goals are different. They imply a process with flexibility, rather than a to-do list that, if not accomplished, spells out failure. With that in mind, here are my goals for 2012:

1. Finish my MFA

2. Get published

3. Learn to sew with a sewing machine

4. Keep up my blog (at least three posts a month)

5. Keep in touch with my out-of-state writing friends

6. Read more

7. Complete a draft of Book 2

8. Get a bicycle

9. Take at least one trip outside of my city and state

10. Host more soirees

11. Learn to purchase and prepare meats for the non-vegetarians in my life

12. Take Riley to the dog park more often

Twelve goals.

Twelve months.

2012.

Bring on the adventures!
