I don't remember that I wrote down goals. I was so busy trying to meet the demands of all of my committments. I wrote two new novels and edited four that are coming out next year. I think my goal for next year will be to stop and smell the roses. Yeah I know that sounds like a cop out but it's something that I know I can accomplish. By the way Yasmine, you didn't tell me you'd made the anthology. Congratulations. I knew you had made it past the first two rounds. I'm so thrilled for you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Dyanne Yasmine,

Let's see....2006: I really didn't set goals but I managed to write the first half of two stories for up-coming projects. One working title: The Crimson spirit and the other: Joren. Neither was turning out quite like I had planned them so I put them on the backburner to pick up later. I tend to do better after a spell of time goes by. Also I was recouping from Hurricane Katrina and not in a proper frame of mind. This is off topic from writing, but I did pick up another art form this past year. I began sculpting fantasy art dolls using polymer clay. it is an interesting medium and hope to continue but right now I'm focusing on my writing. My goals for 2007? To finish the critique/rewrite of my 2nd novel, Thorn's Embrace and submit it to publishers. I also plan to finish The rough drafts of The Crimson Spirit and Joren. Lastly, I have a third novel planning within my brain and I would like to start the rough draft of that story. The hero will be named Pepper and he'll be a grey fae. I'm still working out the details in my mind. Anyhow, hopefully 2007 will be a productive year for everyone. Debbie Hi Yasmine, This is a great blog.

You really made me stop and think. GULP! The first goal I accomplished this year was to write a new novel and get it to my editor. The second goal of completing a second book and getting it to Linda fell short so it's being moved into 2007. Next year my goal is to write three novels. How am I going to accomplish it? Stay off the damned internet and emails! It's the only way I can win at writing. Good blog, Yasmine. You really made me stop and think. GULP!

Back at ya! Great post. I'll be e-mail my topsy-turvy goals tomorrow. As you know, life threw me a couple of curve balls this year. I’m so flattered that you consider me an achievement! Back at ya!

Great post. I’ll be e-mail my topsy-turvy goals tomorrow. As you know, life threw me a couple of curve balls this year.
