I've been really bad in past years about keeping up with my writing. Especially after having a kid. I decided that this year I wanted to actually make (and keep) some New Year's Resolutions dealing with writing. Here are mine:

    Complete my FFVII fan fic, "Who's John ShinRa?" I think I started this in 2002?

    Write a Narusaku lemon fic, because I've never done one with this pairing. narusaku.gif

    Write a non-romance fic since all I tend to write now-a-days is romance/drama.


What are some of your resolutions for the year?
End of line.

My resolution this year, is to finally DO something. Like write a fan-fic, or make an AMV (I have NEVER made an AMV or written a fan-fic before, so this'll be interesting...) Plus, stop mentioning donuts in my posts (Gaah! I just did it now!)
"I heart donuts" says: Doughnuts can be radio-active, just look at Homer Simpson. He eats donuts even though he works in a Nuclear Power Plant.
"Homer" says: So??? I'm still alive...
"I heart donuts" says: But you're a cartoon
"Homer" says: Your point is...
"I heart donuts" says: -.-

Ahhh...The power of instant-chat...

I don't think making strict goals helps much, so mine's simply to write more. Which shouldn't be hard, seeing as I only wrote one story at all last year. Stupid lack of confidence. sleep.gif

1. Run a full marathon
2. Get my passport stamped
3. To tease my friend Anthon a little less. It's going to be hard because he makes it really, really easy, so it's hard to resist sometimes.

I like this thread!

I must agree, I have been so awful at writing stories and publishing them lately. I must get at least three chapters or one shots up this year. That is my 2010 Fanfic resolution! And I will continue my usual goal to try and write about the small things.

I've got a whole bunch of resolutions like study harder, spend more time with friends, find a job, and stuff like that. But for writing, I think I'm going to aim to finish one of my current multichapter stories. I have one that is only a few chapters away from completion, but I've hit a writer's block for that particular story. XD Another resolution would probably be to stave off all plot bunnies until I get one story done.

I'm horrible with anything related to setting goals though, so the chances of the above actually happening? 4.6348%. tongue.gif

To get out more chapters this year than I did last year... I'd be happy if I could get that done.

Of course anime and manga are a given. =) And shows dealing with &quot;otherworldly&quot; things, like Supernatural and Ghost Hunters and, uh...

Hm, writing resolutions...

Well, first thing is first, I need to pick up a few books before I try to get into writing too much. Novels like The Stranger and Frankenstein need to be reread, and then I'll have to read Dracula and 1984 all the way through. Maybe then, after I've picked up some amazing books, my muse will return to me and I can finally finish Porcelain Cracks (holy crap almost three years since I last updated it!!), maybe finish a KakaSaku project along the way, and officially start research and character designs and backgrounds for a novel I've been planning to plan for the past two or three years. 111189.gif

It's been so long since I've last completed a project. I'm so ashamed of myself. sweatdrop.gif

Personally, I plan on just writing a lot more. Especially challenge writings, like trying to write from different perspectives & such. I also want to try & start writing stories. I mainly write poems/lyrics but I think I want to try & expand my field of writing. Heck, I may even try to write a screenplay one day. But those are my goals.
