New Year, New Plan

Happy New Year 2011! It's a fresh new year, and I'm up early making a new yearly plan. Part of my plan will have to do with writing goals--goals for my writing, that is. Aside from a ton of free lance work (including a fairly sizable play) and of course, my part-time job of textbook writing, I haven't done much writing. Soooo, I'm considering making the goal of writing a chapter a week for this year. I have thought about a chapter a day, but I'm afraid that that will just set me up for failure right from the get-go. Even a chapter a week would net me 52 chapters in a year (in case you weren't working the math in your head), and that's way more than a YA novel. I'm thinking that these chapters will be focused on getting a story on paper (that's figurative--it'll probably be on computer) and not on final, massaged drafts.

So that's the plan. Here we go. Hang on. Can't wait to see what happens.
