Happy New !!! **throwing confetti and blowing a party horn**  Welcome to my first post of 2017.  True to form, I’m starting the year with a post about goals.  But not just any goals.  Writing goals.

Finding time to write is a juggling act sometimes.  Add in the holidays and any family obligations and the time I set aside evaporates into thin air.

My major writing goal for 2017 is

to set a daily habit and stick to it.  I have so many things I want to accomplish this year so there’s no time to dilly-dally.

Considering Vivien Reis’ 4 tips to building a daily writing habit, it is imperative that I dedicate uninterrupted time to write or work on related tasks.  This includes research for a character or storyline, catching up on industry news, or honing my craft.

Below is my schedule.  I’ll monitor my progress over the month to see if any tweaks necessary.

Tuesday -Friday for 1 hour (9-10pm)
Saturdays for 2-3 hours (10am- noon or 1pm)
