Writing Resolutions…Again
When votes first started coming in for the most recent edition of the Willoughby Poll, which asked whether you make new year’s resolutions about writing, it was beginning to look like a clean sweep. Every vote that came in was a negative.
But after a few days, that changed quickly.
Eighty-two percent of participants say they do make some sort of writing-related resolution. Now that January is over, it might be interesting to ask them whether or not they’ve broken any of them, yet.
The remaining 14%, and I fall into this category, don’t make any formal resolution for the year when it comes to writing. I gave up on goals and firm personal deadlines — I know that if I’m published, I’ll have real deadlines I can’t put off, and that’ll be fine because a paycheck will be involved. I find that I am a more productive writer when I write when I want to and because I have something to say. I also find that I enjoy writing a lot more when it’s on my schedule.
