New Year’s resolutions: write more?

Filed Under Inspiration, On writing, Passions 

That’s a good one. I think it comes up every year.

Maybe aspiring writers are inclined to be procrastinators more than other types of people, like firefighters (that would be terrible wouldn’t it?)

New Year’s resolutions are great for me, becuase they don’t give me one month or so to set out for change, which I will prompty abandon. Oh no. New Year’s reminds me that the transition from one year to the next is no different from the transition from one day to the next, or the work day to the off hours day. Or writing time to nap time.

Any day can bring renewed commitment, should you really want it.

That’s where New Years comes in. It reminds me another year went by. It gives me a number to associate with achievements (for those of you keeping score at home, 2008 had 0 for me.) That lights the proverbial fire, which should get me to write again.

Hopefully this will mark a renewed effort at posting, since it is about time I do a little more of that. Try to ignore that the last post was two months ago… nothing to see here… move along.
