(Pipe) Dreams for 2006

It is exactly a week since we are back from our trip. With the jetlag firmly under control, Mr R and I have gone back to the life we've been living this past year - work, music, writing and running in the cold.

For the first time in many years, I have not had the time to make my list of New Year Resolutions. My 'list' is usually atleast a page long and includes the usual promises to myself to lose weight, be nice etc etc. This is also the time I review my 'List of things to do before I die', but that one's back home, crammed in a drawer somewhere. That's the price you pay when you have a foot in Europe and the other in Asia. Maybe I'll just update my entry on http://www.43things.com/ instead.

Some (pipe?)dreams for 2006 include (besides the usual suspects):
- Run and complete a race
- Cut my hair short(er)

Writing Goals
-Take my writing seriously.
- Send atleast one query a week. That way, by the end of each month there will be a minimum of 4 queries floating around in addition to the ones already out there.
- Complete and publish my first e-book by Easter.
- Focus on making Writers Bloc a thriving e-group to make up for my absence in India.

There. Now that I've declared my plans to the universe, I'd better stick to them. What's on your list this year?

And when you run out of ideas completely, you'll surely find some more here

Have fun and good luck with your life!
