I have lots of BIG plans for this year and I can't wait to get started!

I know it's going to be amazing.

10 Things: Resolutions

I usually make these every year. I sometimes follow them, but more often then not, I drop the ball sometime during the year. However, here are my hopes for the blogs, books, and author meetings for the new year.

1. Blog most days - this I've been working on and with scheduling posts, it's very easy.
2. Read 365 books this year (2010 count = 350, so this might be do-able)
3. Expand my thoughts on my reviews
4. Post more pop-culture posts, including movie reviews and other items.
5. Comment on more blogs
6. Attend BEA for the third time
7. Not be shy about introducing myself to authors/bloggers
8. Come up with a one line zinger for an introduction
9. Finish editing the two novels from past year's NaNoWriMo wins
10. Send them off and find an agent
