Snowflake Challenge-Day 9

Day 09

In your own space, set some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I like the phrasing of this, goals not resolutions as there are certain things I'm reaching for and writing them down helps.

1-Write and publish more-fics, on my librarian blog and keep looking into ways to write in other places.

2-Move to a city either Boston or DC-this one is something I've been thinking about and I think will make a big difference in many of parts of my life. Its going to involve finding the equivalent of the subbing I've been doing here, a bridge job as my mom calls them, but being closer to friends, people my age and more of what's happening in the profession will be good for me in a lot of ways.

3-Comment more, get involved in discussions all over the web in fannish and librarian places. I have a voice to add to the conversation.

4-Read books outside my comfort zone, read more diverse authors and stories.

5-Keep reconnecting more with the theater world.

The best to you regarding #3 because it sounds terrific. DC or Boston would have that historical vibe and someone could use that as a source of passion.

Thank you. I grew up outside Philly and miss what being close to an interesting city can be like. I'm not that far away now but enough that I feel the difference.

I've always lived in a city or 'burb, but now at this time of my life I'm considering a rural lifestyle. It has the appeal of not being done before, and I like animals ... *ponders*

It can be nice, some of it also depends on how far out you are. I'm living in an area now that's this odd mixture of seaside resort and rural. It makes being a substitute teacher fascinating as the schools capture a lot of the variety here.

Ooh, seaside sounds just right. As for rural living, it would take much bravery on my part *wibbles*
