<p>December vacation all wrapped up.  So now it&#8217;s time to get back to work.  I have to admit that it&#8217;s been a tad difficult getting back into the swing of things.  I did spend some time reflecting on the past year and have decided to work on goals for the upcoming year, <a href="chrisguillebeau.com">Chris Guillebeau style</a> (I think he calls it his annual review).</p>
<p>At first, I felt that I did not accomplish that much in the past year.  But once I started thinking about all that I did, I realized that I wrote 15 books last year.  OK, so they weren&#8217;t great novels but rather computer courseware manuals for Office 2010 (I&#8217;m a technical writer in my other life).  While it may not seem like a huge amount for work, each manual runs between 250 &#8211; 300 pages.  So it is safe to say that I did, in fact, have a productive year.  I also did finish my fiction novel &#8211; working on the edits now.</p>
<p>Looking forward to another good year.  I have a lot on my plate for 2012 &#8211; which I&#8217;ll talk about a little at a time as the months progress.<strong><br />Similar Posts:</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>This is my first post!  As I mentioned in the About page, I have decided to move from a Web page to a blog as I have a tendency to forget about and neglect my Web page.  Hopefully, I shall not do the same with the blog.</p>
<p>The purpose of this blog is to provide me a space to write about my current work, as well as add my thoughts/reflections about life and our culture &#8211; all the things that provide me food for writing.</p>
<p>I do welcome all correspondence so feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions.  Of course, comments on blog posts are welcome as well.<strong><br />Similar Posts:</strong>
