Professional:

  • I will submit nonfiction to paying markets that have nothing to do with crime fiction.
  • I will use The Way of the Cheetah to get at least two books in the pipeline.
  • I will complete and submit a minimum of 1 short story a month.
  • I will not engage in a literary feud because literary feuds are for classless losers.  (Yes, someone tried this last year.  I ignored him, too.)

Personal:

  • I will lose weight.  I gained plenty in 2008 to get a head start.
  • I will ride the entire Little Miami Trail from Newtown to Xenia.
  • I will be a great stepdad.
  • I will be an awesome husband.
  • I will work on my degree.
  • I will learn not to overextend myself in money or time.  Especially time.

Creative

  • I will make Scalzi’s “evil, yet awesome” part of the English lexicon this year.
  • I will write outside my comfort zone.
  • I will be vocal.
  • I will be mobile.
  • I will be downloadable.
  • I will not make a porno with Zack or Miri.

There.  Resolutions.  Happy?
