Okay, and for my 2005 goals: 1. write 400K words of fiction 2. sell 4 books 3. bike from Minas Tirith to Hobbiton (1625 miles) 4. walk halfway to Mt. Doom (658.5 miles) 5. read 104 books 6. lose 30 pounds Look familiar, don’t they? :)
Revolutions!
There they are, my 2004 goals. Silly me, I wrote ’em in 2003. No wonder I couldn’t find ’em. :) 1. to write 400K words of fiction (accomplished: 304,700) 2. to sell 4 books (accomplished: 3) 3. to bike 1500 miles (accomplished: only a few hundred) 4. to walk 575 miles (accomplished: 540.5) 5. to draw 30 drawings (accomplished: like 3?) 6. to read 104 books (accomplished: 102 (doh!)) 7. to lose 30 pounds (accomplished: 15; 20 since Nov. 2003) Not too shabby. :)
A New Year’s baby!
My nephew Seirid Eoin (Sear-id Owen) Gleason was born at 7:41am on New Year’s Day! Deirdre says there’ll be pictures of him later today. He was 7.5 pounds, 21 inches, and Breic is apparently taking it all in stride quite well. *beam* Yay!
good news
Good news: I’ve started to wonder how I’m going to fit everything into this book I’m writing, which means I’ve probably hit about critical mass for the amount of stuff I actually need in it. That’s good. :) Total wordcount for 2004: 304,700. Happy New Year, everyone!
ah
Ah. I can remember my MT password, after all. :) So a brief note from the trenches! Ted’s family are all very nice people. I’m not surprised by this, mind you, I’m just saying. There’ve been about 25 people here every day, which is a little (re: a lot) shocking for somebody accustomed to seeing maybe 25 people in a month. I’m sort of worn out. o.O I’ve gotten a fair bit of writing done. 5 chapters so far, and I’m going to try to get another one done today.…
