And Now for 2013…in a Few Days

It’s not quite the end of the year, but I thought I’d recap what I’ve done and set my goals for next year. How did I do? How did you do?

First off, the reading accomplishments:

Read: 51 books

Second, the writing accomplishments:

Wrote/edited: approximately 113764 words

Published: the final 2 Sketches from the Spanish Mustang novellas (The Five Fortunes of Fulano and The Independence of Carolyn Woltkowski), and the complete Sketches from the Spanish Mustang.

Finally, the writing and reading goals for 2013:

Finish Driving the Spike (release scheduled for late 2013)
Write at least 10,000 words a month (my average for 2012 was 9480, not too far off my 2012 goal). However, the plotted Driving the Spike comes in at around 140000 words, so I’ll want to bump that number up a bit.

Read: 52 books (1 a week, if my calculations are correct)

That’s about it. Nothing really that exciting, but it’s good to have goals, is it not? What are yours?
Happy 2013!

As I mentioned in a recent post, I have been ruminating over the depressing side of the holiday season. I also said I was going to expand on those thoughts and perhaps show you what I do with those feelings I have.
