2017 Preview

2017 is a prime number. I'm not sure why I always start these goals with interesting number facts, and there's nothing interesting about 2017, but why break with tradition? Since this is a prime year, and I have a prime-number age, it means it's a prime year for kicking up the goals a notch.

I will still be building up my music publishing business, but now that it's up and running, I can spend more time with the writing I had chosen to partially neglect last year. So, more time for accomplishing goals!

• "Justice" (novel)
• Submit to an editor
• Make any needed changes
• Get it published (self-publishing on Amazon)
• "The Last Actuary" (short story)
• Submit to Actuarial Speculative Fiction Contest
• "Space Cadets" (novel)
• Finish first draft
• Short stories
• Write three new stories
• 26 magazine submissions (don't include "The Last Actuary" contest submission above)
• 5 goal review sessions throughout the year

Good luck with your own goals.
