In your own space, set some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.



Personal creative goals-

1) Shoot for that 125k word marker again this year. I didn't make it last year, but there were times when the last thing I wanted to do was write, so I'm hoping to make those periods fewer and farther between
2) Get better at icon making- I've made a few, but I'd like to do more than just find a picture and crop
3) Paint! I bought acrylics and am going to try my hand at painting on metal
4) Continue to update my Ao3 and cross-post there as I go

Other goals-
1) Journal at least 5 times a week and update my posting to my LJ & DWs accounts more often (and maybe actually post something about myself in between July and December
2) Give feedback & rec things I really like & give encouragement to people that need it
3) Keep my health in line with regular doctor's appointments & exercise
4) Read some of the books that have been lingering on my bookshelf or in my Kindle
5) Find a TV series that I like and binge watch it (or maybe finish seasons 1-3 of "The Wire")
6) Try to be kinder (it's always on my yearly list)

Such a wonderful, comprehensive set of goals! YOu've got a great range in your creative goals, in addition to an admirable wordcount goal. And so kind of you to include encouraging others as one of the goals! (I'm afraid I've failed to set any goals for myself, and I enjoy repeating the word here instead. :))

Painting on metal sounds interesting. I've seen people paint rural scenes on saw blades. *ponder* You could probably buy very cheap things to paint on at a junk shop, and just need to clean them up. I imagine it's what a lot of the paint-on-metal folks do around here.
