I stopped making New Year's resolutions a long time ago. This year, however, I am in the middle of many changes in my life and resolutions in regards to my writing seem more important than ever.
In 2012, I resolve to work hard at finding homes for the six picture books I wrote during May 2011's Picture Book Writing Week. Two have been rejected by literary agents already, but I will spend part of 2012 revising them and sharing them with my critique groups to see if I can change that. In addition, despite the fact that I plan to return to working outside my home for the first time in eight years, I resolve to finish my two works in progress--Hold Your Horses (Christian juvenile) and Amelia's Mission (middle grade historical)--and get them ready for submission.

Thanks Jan. I usually feel like I don't accomplish half of what I want to. Nicole, I appreciate your prayers. They keep me going.
Cheryl, best wishes with going back out into the work force and for reaching the resolutions you have set for yourself.
