      Mary J McCoy-Dressel, Western romance

      Wow, we’re nearly at the end of 2017. Congratulations to those of you who participated each week in the Marketing for Romance Writers 52-Week Blog Challenge. 

      Week 52: New Year’s Resolutions:

       

      This means we have to tell you our resolutions or goals for 2018. Today I’m quoting myself with a snippet from a paragraph from a January 2011 post:

      A goal is what I want to reach for–to strive to meet. In a resolution, I am saying I’m going to do it, and not falter with firm determination. There are too many obstacles that can get in my way with a resolution.

      IMHO

      Here are my goals in no particular order, not including personal goals I choose to keep to myself. Sometimes a lady doesn’t tell…

      Writing Related Goals for 2018:

      Publish two books & rewrite another.
      Update backmatter in my older books.
      Blog at least twice a week. (Yep, 2017 proved to me that I wasn’t good at keeping up with three posts a week for a year.)
      Learn a little HTML.

      Life Changes:

      Get more active.
      Eat healthier foods
      Move to a new apartment.

      Personal:

      Spend more time with friends.
      Get out and away from the computer.
      Dedicate more time to Reading for pleasure.
      Cook real food instead of food that goes DING.

       


      Mary J McCoy-Dressel, Western Romance,

      This is a Blog Hop.
      Let’s visit the other authors on our last week together in 2017.

      How about you, bloggers and readers? Do you make goals or resolutions? If so, have you thought of resolutions/ goals for the upcoming year?

      Be Safe.

      Thanks to all of you for taking a ride with me this year. Yeehaa!
