My main goal for the past few years has been to earn my Bachelor's degree...and I'm happy to say that I achieved that goal in December of 2011. This leaves me free to start 2012 with the intention of putting more time and effort into my writing. I've joined a group of like-minded people to challenge myself to write between five hundred and a thousand words per day, six days a week, and I'm happy to say that my first day of this challenge increased the size of my long-standing WIP by 1295 words. I'm starting strong in the New Year and hope that by January 1, 2013 I can not only say that I was able to stick to the challenge I've set for myself, but also that I was able to share some of my work with the world.
