New Year's Resolutions

It's that time of the year again. Have you made your New Year's resolutions? I know at least one person who has decided that their resolution is to not make any resolutions. She probably has a good chance at keeping hers.

What resolutions have you made this year? For me, I have decided that I need to refocus my writing. Back when I started in the field, I dedicated time to writing each day / week. Over time, that's slipped. But that's going to change. I resolve to set up my writing time again, and to send out more queries. If I don't send out queries, then what are the odds of gettng an article in a publication? While I have had an editor contact me in the past to do a pieces that weren't queried, most articles I've had published have been generated by the query process.

Another thing I have decided is to start turning my writing back towards medical, science, and technology. Not that I'm turning my back on the men's magazine articles that I've written, but I also want to get back to my writing roots. I love writing about those things, so it's time to get back to it.

Speaking of getting back to it, that's it for this blog entry. Time to write.
