All write!
First, let's assume that one has donned the infinitely slippery robe of the time traveler, and parted the curtain of time, achieving a foothold on the far shore, one year ahead.
Or, of course, you could just wait a year, and there you are again!
Anyway, let's say (for the sake of the argument) that it is next year, about this time. Got it?
Now, in thinking back, what were the resolutions, habits, turning points, and other wonderfalls that made this year the great year it was in your writing? What happened? Tell us (write us a scene) about the disappointments and the glories, the muses and their hot breath.
Flashbacks galore!
Second, of course, let's ask that perennial favorite: what are your writing resolutions this year? What do you expect to do to make your writing sing this year?
And, locally, let me ask what you expect to do on this list? Are you going to SUB:, CRIT:, TECH:, EXER:, WOW:, INT: or FILL:? What kind of submissions are you going to SUB:? How do you CRIT: safely and sanely? What tidbits of TECH:nique do you want to share? Did your fingers get the EXERCISE: they need?
News of the World Of Writing? WOW:!
And if the multi-author world of writing gets to you, there's interactives to plot and foil.
Or, by your leave, we may have a bit of fill: some words and thoughts wrapped for the fun of it.
Anyway -- what are your three resolutions for writing this year?
(Okay, you want more than three? Make them good!)
Do your resolutions match your one year projection?
