Happy New Year everyone. Here's wishing you the best in 2013!
As 2012 comes to an end, I find myself thinking about the coming year. I don't know about you, but I expect great things from myself and my characters in 2013. To reach my personal goals, I've developed these top ten writing-life resolutions.
10. I will write every day. (And editing does NOT count as writing)
9. I will not obsess over shiny new ideas before completing tried and true, almost finished novels.
8. I will not check sales figures more than once a day for any reason.
7. I will believe in myself and my writing.
6. I will allow myself time to read for pleasure.
5. I will give myself permission to write a crappy first draft and then further permission to rewrite that story as many times as needed.
4. I will not be pressured to release a book before I believe it to be perfect and worthy of my fans.
3. I will continue to be thankful, every day, for every fan.
2. I will back up every version of my documents early and often in an organized way that makes them easy to recover.
1. I will try something new and stretch out of my comfort zone.
How will you turbo charge your Indie writing life in the new year? What are your resolutions?
