Everybody has resolutions, some that we change from time to time and some that change us forever in our lifetime. So, what's yours for this coming new year 2013???
What's your resolution as a writer for the new year 2013?

Has anyone actually ,made a NY resolution that changed them forever? I'm just against this whole change your life once a year until you hive up after two weeks.
I wrote a poem on a leaf and it blew away...
New Years resolution? I wanna read On The Road while either drunk or high? Will that count?

This is fantastic. And so attainable.Originally Posted by miyako73
Mine however, might be less attainable... It would be to quit drinking wine (which means all alcohol) for the year and finally finish writing my first novel. It seems that when I drink I only manage to write poetry or short, fragmented prose works. This novel of mine has been sitting in a state of abandonment for the majority of the past 3 years. I am beginning to fear for its well-being. The pages have grown visibly ill, and the sentences have developed a nasty cough. This must be the year!
An oft told tale and especially on this forum. Why bugger about writing poetry that, although it might give the reader an unintended laugh, will inevitably distract a potential novelist from finishing a book?

Long ago I made a New Year resolution that I have kept faithfully to this day. It was to give up making New Year resolutions.

Wow Wolf. As I suspected, you're not really giving the rest of us much creative freedom of expression after all are you? I knew it was all about your ego. Next time you post a point of view, don't use the word 'we'. Happy New Year!
