2017 will be full of accomplishment, joy, and lots of good writing for all us.

We will make it so.

I’m not doing resolutions, not even a “things I will not do” list as I did last year.

This year I will embrace change, flexibility, and experimentation (in writing and new hobbies…nothing naughty).

I’m going to post more often on my blog, but I’ll be aiming for more introspection, writing life humor, photos, and book reviews. I’ll still host guest authors whenever they request a spot, but I’m going to spend less time searching for guests. Just know that you authors are invited, but you need to contact me.

It’s all about reclaiming as much time for writing as possible.

And then making myself sit down at the computer, turn off the internet, open Word, and write.

By the way, speaking of the internet, I will continue to encourage everyone to get off social media and live life face-to-face. I’ve already cut my social media time way down, and it’s all good.

If you need more encouragement, please read this blog post by James Scott Bell on the Kill Zone Blog: Social Media is Eating Your Brain.
