Happy New Year, OCC!

As always, I’m excited to face a whole new year of opportunities. Will I achieve them?

Will you?

I just finished the rough first draft of the first book in my new mystery series about Lauren Vancouver, Pet Rescuer–a spin-off from my Kendra Ballantyne, Pet-Sitter series. I’m facing a deadline to turn it in, plus another in the series this year, as well as a Silhouette Nocturne. And, I hope, even more.

Can I do it? Sure.

What else do I want to achieve this year? Lots, including in my co-career, as a lawyer.

Another thing I want to do is to attend as many OCC meetings as I can. As always. There’s nothing greater than sharing experiences and ideas with people who are as enthusiastic as our wonderful chapter members!

I’ve blogged on my weekly blog–KillerHobbies.blogspot.com–about New Years resolutions for pets, since I tend to break mine pretty fast each year, so I’m not phrasing anything as an actual resolution this year.

How about you? Are you making resolutions? It’s now the sixth day into the New Year. Have you broken them yet?

How much writing do you intend to accomplish this year???

I rather like Deb Mullins’ idea of making All-Year’s Resolutions, especially about writing. You can read her ideas as posted here on A Slice of Orange on December 28.

By the way… Happy New Decade, too!

And as always, if there’s something you’d like me to address in a future Slice of Orange, please say so! See you here on the sixth of each month…
