I'm
not a huge fan of New Year's resolutions, especially when it comes to
my writing goals. But I do appreciate making time for a pause to review
what I've accomplished in the past year and imagine what I'd like to
bring into the new one. It's more of a visioning moment than setting
firm goals, because I know (oh so well!) how my goals can morph as the
year goes forward. And I only know what I can see from this moment.
But I've used three methods to help myself create realistic goals for my
new writing year, based on what I learned from the previous twelve
months.
Here'
s a short writing exercise to try this week, if you want to reflect and
plan intelligently, in a way that acknowledges your particular
creativity.
