This is a good list!
May I add another?
Sleep. You can’t write if you’re exhausted.

and in regard to reading… read deep and wide. Go outside of the genre you’re most comfortable. Tackle things that in the past you’ve deemed ‘too hard’ to read. Don’t get stuck in one genre, or limit yourself to a handful of authors. Love reading, think of it as your time to indulge your senses and intellect.

Thank you for prompting me to compile a list. I do find that when I create lists of things to do that there is a greater probability of me accomplishing those tasks and not just hoping to “get to it” in the nebulous future.

With that in mind, I’ve compiled a detailed list. Here it is:

My goals for 2007, not necessarily in this order:

1. Have my manuscript polished enough to send out to agents and publishers.
2. Continue to seek readers for my manuscript from varying backgrounds such as historians of the medieval period and French history, Muslim culture, as well as fans of fantasy and classical romance to get feedback as to what works and what doesn’t.
3. Correct any mistakes or trouble spots in the manuscript as they are identified.
4. Volunteer at the San Francisco Writers Conference and be prepared to schmooze. http://www.sanfranciscowritersconference.com/
5. Finish compiling the itinerary of places to visit in France for researching fine historical details for my novel.
6. Make travel arrangements.
7. Be more diligent in my French lessons.
8. Travel to France and take copious notes and pictures.
9. Embroider previously mentioned fine historical details into existing text without interfering with the narrative flow of the novel or adding excessive length.
10. Decide on map making software and translate the maps I created from Google Earth into illustrations for my novel.
11. Cultivate a fanbase by
A. Reconnect with those who left positive reviews for my online Harry Potter fanfiction
B. Become a member of the Society for Creative Anachronism
C. Scour the internet for fans of Orlando Furioso
D. Reach out to online fans of Arthurian legends who might be interested in the legends of Charlemagne
12. Create a website to promote my forthcoming novel. Include pictures from areas of France that are in the novel as well as deleted nibbles from the writing process that slowed the overall narrative flow.
13. Update my literary blog at least weekly.
14. Read other literary blogs to keep abreast of the industry and what other writers are thinking.
15. Force myself to read more fiction, and not just nonfiction research
16. Fulfill my obligations as president of my writers club until June.
17. Entice someone else to run as president of my writers club so that they can have a similar wonderful experience as I have had for the last two years.
18. Secure a literary agent / sign a contract with a publisher
19. Begin work on the highly detailed day by day calendar-based outline for the sequel.
20. Start writing the sequel.

So many times, we authors forget why we got into writing in the first place — because we love to READ.

My goals for 2007:
1. Schedule my days better.
2. Stick like glue to said schedule.
3. Surf ‘net less. (see goal #1)

2) Write about the meeting;
3) Achieve global fame.

That’s all.

I WISH I didn’t get the urge to write as soon as I’m in bed – and then find I’m still awake at 4:00AM!

I’m going to try the throw pillows in a corner of my office, as opposed to sitting in a chair, groaning with back ache…

My goal for 2007 is to find an agent and/or a publisher for the novel I’ve written which is for a national rather than faith-based audience.

1.) Finish the trilogy I’ve been working on for two years. This should be relatively painless. The first drafts are all done, and some second and third drafts. I’ve about 6 months worth of work left.
2.) After the trilogy, start and finish at least the first draft of a novel that keeps popping into my head.

I’m not asking for publication in 2007, nor necesarily acceptance by an agent. Those are goals I’m shooting for in 2008. But I’ll take what comes. :-)
