Jesus Freaks for Writers discussion

Do you have any resolutions for the new year? Share them with us!

Here are a couple of mine:

Finish reading The Agony and the Ecstasy (I have seriously been reading this book for three months)
Complete the first draft of Book One in my trilogy
Read The Wheel of time series by Robert Jordan
Watch Lord of the Rings

I love how Watch lotr is one of your resolutions!!

As far as books go, I want to finish the series I am in and read the books I own, rather than always reading library books.

And I want to set aside more time for prayer and reading God's Word.

I want to finish the first draft of my story this year. We'll see how that goes... :)

I plan to publish two books this year, possibly a third, and get at least two books ready for publication next year.

Cool!

@Rebecca: I think it's about time I watched it!!! Praying more is always a good goal!

@Tamara: high five and good luck with finishing your first draft! We can do this!!!

@Kendra: that's awesome! Good luck!

o.o you have not seen it yet????

I know!!!!!!! It's terrible, isn't it? An outrage!!!!!

LOTR is awesome. Sam Gamgee is the best.

I'm planning on finishing my fantasy trilogy and getting the first book published, then getting serious on my outer space dystopian. I also want to get some steady music students, not the trial as long as you practice without being told you can have lessons ones I've had, and get my Etsy shop going. I guess those are more goals than resolutions, but I've never really set New Year's resolutions.

Sounds like a good list!!

I love Sam!!! :)

My resolution was to stop telling people all the mistakes in my art and just let them enjoy it.

That should be one of mine too. :D

An update on my resolutions:

I finished The Agony and the Ecstasy (yay!!!!)
I have made no progress on my book. Zilch -_-
Still haven't read The Wheel of time series by Robert Jordan...
Finished watching The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers! Now for Return of the King!!! :D

How are all of yours going?

Eh, I've only got a couple more paragraphs writen for my story. *Sheepish*

That's better than I'm doing... ;/

My two biggest resolutions are to finally publish my first book and to get a National cut in swimming!

Am I seriously the only one who hasn't read or watched LOTR?

Good luck on your book!!!

And you seriously need to read LotR!!!!!!!

I've never read or seen LOTR either. You are not alone!

Oh my, neither of you have! That's crazy, you really have to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, you do!!!

How's everyone doing on their goals for 2015?

Well, I never did finish the first draft of my WIP, nor did I read The Wheel of Time.
I guess those will carry over as 2016 goals, then! To add to them:
- Finish first draft of Book Two
- Write everyday
- Read everyday
I'm sure I'll think of more...

How did you do on your 2015 goals? What are some of your goals/resolutions for 2016?
