I could list all the excuses that I didn’t write a single word this weekend, but that would be pointless, right? Just giving more power to the excuses. Point is, life got busy and there were things that just called to me more than writing.

I’ve been on a Debbie Macomber kick lately. Last nights read was the second story in her Be My Valentine book. It totally guilted me into writing. Really writing. The story is about a writer… a romance writer who writes religiously, consistently, every single day. She guards her writing time like a pitt bull. I envy that. I envy that drive and determination and the ultimate results.

Now’s that time to start looking toward next year… time to think about goals, shedding several pounds, getting fit and toned and decide on my ultimate goals as a person, not just a writer.

I’ll definitely be tuning in to Oprah’s show the first week of the new year.

And last but not least, be sure to tune in to the CataNetwork as we’re planning lots of great things for 09. It’s sure to be our best year yet!
