Almost New Year Resolutions

I am not a fan of New Year, and I am even less of a fan of New Year Resolutions. However, by my reckoning, it is not currently New Year and it just so happens that I have a few things in mind that I should try and achieve in the next twelve months (please note that I did not say in the new year). These are (in order of expulsion from brain, not importance):

1. submit short stories for publication
2. don’t be sniffy about what publications I approach as long as they are paying good, old fashioned money
3. write my novel
4. learn about writing a screenplay
5. do not spend months looking at screen writing software when any old text editor will do
6. complete a script reading course if I have not lost interest by this stage
7. get serious about freelance (technical) writing
8. take photographs (I never said they were ALL writing-related)
9. can’t think of anymore and I’m bored now anyway
