I've just been looking back at previous posts and realising how useful setting goals has been.  Because, yes, I have done things.  And looking back to this time last year has shown me how much having achievable goals has encouraged me to do things.  So yay!  Therefore, without further ado:

Goal 1 - Carry on writing all the things  Definitely still doing that.  As ever [livejournal.com profile] fan_flashworks has encouraged this.  (My badge total has now reached 65!)  I've just posted Mouselet and the Genie.  It's also encouraged me to write more poetry, something I would not have expected this time last year:



Then there's [livejournal.com profile] sherlock60 where Round 5 began today, with The Private Journal of Dr Watson being serialised by the Marylebone Monthly Illustrated (subscriptions still available); [livejournal.com profile] holmes_minor has a monthly prompt, and will be beginning a mid-month activity (Additional Charges - broom cupboard fic); and [livejournal.com profile] watsons_woes has their monthly prompt, which I have yet to write.

And I have plans for the next part of Sussex Retirement, the first chapter of my Lucas North/Adam Carter follow-up fic has gone to [livejournal.com profile] vix_spes; and [livejournal.com profile] scfrankles has looked at the first chapter of Watson1918 and made various helpful comments. So there's plenty to keep me occupied.

And lastly I've signed up for [livejournal.com profile] ficmountain which is a small fandom exchange.

Several different fandoms, and different genres, so goal achieved.

Goal 2 - Read more and widely As far as I am concerned this has been a brilliant success.  My last review of the year will go up later this month - I'm still reading my final books.  Once that is done I shall have read at least one book which was suggested by every one of my flist who commented last year, so thank you all.  It will bring my total of books read for the year to 26 and will have covered a wide variety of fiction, plus some non-fiction.  After which I shall make a start on the 15 books which are lined up on my shelf and in my book basket just waiting for me.

Goal 3 - More theatre An extremely enjoyable goal, easily achieved.  24 plays in the last twelve months, with one to come at the end of the month.  Much as I enjoy going to the theatre, and, surprise, surprise, I will continue to do so, I am not going to include this in next year's goals.  I am not in the position, either timewise or finance wise, to concentrate on theatre going, so it seems reasonable to find another goal, especially as I have one in mind.
