Here it is, half-way through January: my New Year's Writing and Reading Resolutions (and '07 Recap).
Thanks for Caroline for the inspiration!
2007 Recap:
Wrote 18 fan fiction stories:
-15 Supernatural (6 in printed zines)
-2 Dog The Bounty Hunter
-1 SN/ Dog crossover
-1 Original 'flash fiction': 'This Time Around'
Equaling= 95,682 words
Read approximately 25 books (excluding a lot of fanfic):
-blogged 22 between June 24th and December 7th
Equaling= I've no clue.
Am currently 11 chapters into my novel 'Innocence Fading':
-44,727 words
After one (or two?) false starts and miscellaneous back-story:
-57,940 words
Bringing the grand total of written words to (excluding blog entries):
198,409 averaging 540 words per day
Goals for 2008:
Complete first draft of novel
Write at least 5 original short stories
-and enter them in competitions
Write at least 5 dog-related articles (both memoir-style and training-related)
-and submit them to magazines
Read at least 60 books
Attend at least 3 writing conferences
-Australian Writer's Convent
-Missouri Writer's Guild
Writing fan fiction is a writing exercise only--not a priority!
-Reading it is a guilty pleasure!
Best wishes!!

Mark my words, you'll get to the end of this year and you'll have achieved all that, plus more. You're awesome like that!
And, I'm glad I could inspire you. Just returning the favour, in a small way.
