Hello 2011!

Happy 2011 everyone.

A lot of people are talking about resolutions and goals for this year. My goal last year was to finish my novel and get an agent. This year my goal is to get published! What about you all? What are your writing goals?

I know I was supposed to write about self-editing last week, but then life happened and I got sidetracked. Tomorrow I’ll do a post about self-editing, and then it’s more editing for the rest of the week!

  1. Happy 2011! You had a great 2010!

    My writing goal is to write a screenplay and write another novel. Fingers crossed I don't get too distracted. =)

  7. I'm at the "shopping" stage (shopping my MS out to be judged by others) - sooo, my goal is to finally write a respectable query letter!

    And I wanted you to know that I picked up a package of twizzlers in your honor last weekend. :)

  8. I pledge to finish my revisions, and write a stellar query letter that lands me the agent of my dreams. Oh and I vow not to stress. Hum...I'm not sure if I'm off to a very good start.

  9. Great goals!

    I'd be happy to look at anyone's query and do a critique...it doesn't help to have a second set of eyes.

    Bethany - Twizzlers are awsome. I am not so secretly addicted to them. I think it's been proven that they make you a better writer :)

  10. I meant it doesn't hurt...or maybe I meant it always helps...in any case I really butchered that sentiment. :)
