It seems like the first few weeks of any new year is a time of reflection for me. I’ve written some goals as I’ve given thought to what I want to bring to my freelance writing business and what I think I want in return this year. Now comes the doing.
Here are a group of blog posts that will help me stay focused and I hope will do the same for you:
- No-Fail Freelance Resolutions: How To Succeed in 2009 – Jenny Cromie over at The Golden Pencil has some great points about turning resolutions into goals that are workable.
- 8 Things I Did To Help Me Complete My First Book - the goal of many writers.
- The Single Secret to Making 2009 Your Best Year Ever – I’m loving this blog more and more. I chuckled over this one.
- 47 Ways Copyblogger Can Help You Keep Your New Year’s Resolutions – bookmarkable – if we all did even half of these we’d be miles ahead.
- 7 Pieces of Timeless Business Wisdom – timeless and priceless.
Of course, if you’ve got some ideas on setting and keeping to your goals, please share them with us.
Write well and often,
Two newsletters:
Abundant Freelance Writing – a resource for freelance writers including 3x a week job postings.

Thanks for the mention above Anne!
As for me, I need to read what you have to say about writing that first book—one of my goals this year!
Happy New Year!

I’ve created a site for the group of us who have worked together for several years on GOALS, DREAMS, AND RESOLUTIONS for each year — a topic about which I’ve written for you on previous sites.
It contains a set of questions to help start setting goals, sharing of answers if so chosen, monthly check-ins and encouragements.
