I'm not a person who typically makes resolutions, but this year I've decided to start. My resolutions are thus: 1) Play the guitar at least a little every day. 2) Write something every day. 3) Floss. 4) Go to the gym more. 4 is fuzzy, yes, but "more" is, in fact, quantifiable if I look at my past gym performance. And, really, if we look deeply at each of these, there's a well-defined goal in mind: 1) Play the guitar at least a little every day [in order to improve technique and work up to playing in public]. 2) Write something every day [to build up a body of work and get back on track toward submitting something to be published]. 3) Floss [to avoid that nasty periodontitis]. 4) Go to the gym more [in order to at some point achieve Killer Abs And Arms]. So happy you're writing again! Indeed!
