Time has run fast. Only I have finished a manuscript in these last months and finally got that far that I've sent it away. First one is always bad, so no big hopes here.
Still, as this year has passedm I'm thinking on becoming something more serious than one-sentense on a napkin guy. Girl.
Which also means I have the next story going, which I'm not sure where it will lead or how it will end. But it does mean I'm head over heals in a subject that makes me ask myself what it is that I want to do. Do I want to write or do I wish to paint? I want both, but one can't have both, not if you're serious of being succesfull. Except if you're a children book illustrator- writer. Then you can accomplish almost anything
I haven't put that idea aside either - I love it too much. But I want to write books, too and not have one book as a life's work, which is EEVIL!, but I want to write sequals, short stories, long stories and actually do it instead of just mumbling about it. The first step is taken, I now need to move on to the next.
Still, I have given you promises and I will make them. I just feel so bad it has taken me so long to come back here and even now I'm not sure for how long.
I have some promises for the next year though:
1. Finish the promised artwork. I will do it. Even if it takes the whole year...
2. Write at least 2 to 3 pages a day for 8 months. I'm dead serious about this one. I've been talking to some professionals and I feel like a kid next to them.
3. Learn History. I have exam coming, believe it or not.
4. Keep at 2 year writing course at FMWriters.com
5. Lose some weight. Hypocritical as it sounds, but I promise myself if I hit a certain number, I'll have to do it.
6. Bring up a puppy. A little friend I will get from the dog pound soon - only two weeks to go.
So, I have my work cut out for me...
But you know what warms my heart the most? To see all you guys here, still with same tricks, with new styles, same dreams. You really really inspire me and though I change, you give me dream of still being the same girl, who once game here.
Merry Christmas and take care, paint as long as heart desires and write so long your brain's on fire.
Thank you for inspireing me.
Love,
Liisa
