Hello hello hello, everyone!
Happy belated Christmas and New Year and all that!
Sorry for not posting during that turbulent time of year, but I basically took a week off-- a computer detox, if you will, to give me more time to enjoy this fair city. Well, that and my internet wasn't working. Regardless, I explored far and wide instead of just being made of fail in Maida Vale. I even went to one of those tacky plays in Picadilly. lulz.
New Year's is kind of a sore spot for me, as I feel a little deprived by the experience. My family whisked me off to Edgware to hang out with some of our family friends. It's pretty okay until you realize that not a single drop of alcohol is going down your sorry throat. I guess I'm not particularly good at being a teenage person. Fuck.
Looking back on last year's resolutions... Weekly writing, getting published, ect, I seem to have kept them pretty well. I wrote a total of fourty-eight pieces last year, which is not quite weekly but still pretty damn good. Also I got published, which is still ACE TO THE POWER OF WIN TIMES ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-FIVE.
So, the resolutions for this year are...
-Write at least weekly and hopefully more.
-Finish the first draft of XX.
-Get published again. I've done it once, right?
-Do a little hundred-word thing every day in addition to the weekly writings.
So, are you lot up to any arty resolutions?
Or are you too cool for resolutions and such?

I never have resolutions for myself, perhaps I should. I just know I would never keep them unless they were things I would have planned on doing before the end of the year...or something.
Glad to hear that you survived 2008 :3

My resolution:
No more suicide.
It's the best resolution I've ever made.
For artsies, I'm making one right now...
Start writing every day again. I used write at least 300 words a day (or edit 600 if I was feeling uninspired). I'd like to return to that; I failed throughout the whole of 2008 'cause of the whole psych-unit thing.
Yeah. That's it. Err. Yes.
On my New Year's I got very drunk, had a slurred conversation with my ex, ended up walking around naked in front of him, and said to this guy I'd met once before: -
"You can use that in your masturbatory fantasises!"

I resolved to finish the book I'm working on and to actually talk to people this year.
I think I'm doing well so far.
