I've been a long time away from here, but Im back and wanted to wish everyone the happiest of new years, filled with health, happiness, and prosperity. 2011 was a blur to me as the whirlwind of publishing swept me away. Finding my way through the promotion maze and needing time management tools certainly kept me on my toes.

Some people marvel at my schedule, but I'd barreled into it full-throttle, and truly can't see the forest for the trees. It might be better that I don't! LOL I think it would shake me to the core to see everything I do day in and day out. I'm sure it's like that for many of you as well. Holding down a full-time job, caring for a family, and growing a publishing career are things that many of us may have in common. And if we stop and think about everything we do to keep those plates spinning, we may just go hide under a rock!

Since it is the new year, I have goals to reach by its end. I am anticipating completing my third novel in the Brethren Series by mid-January. Then I will start on a collaborative project with another author, a suspense novel, and begin the fourth book in the Brethren Series.  Iknow the steps it takes to reach these goals, so I am confident that I will achieve them.

How about you? What are your writing goals for this coming year?

Hugs,
Deena Remiel
