Change has been my life’s overriding theme this year. Some of it has been good, like the change in my daily scenery when I started a new job outside the home, or when my writing went from unpublished to print in a couple of online venues. Another change – moving across town – has come with its challenges, but also in less wear and tear on the vehicles and the formation of new relationships.
For 2012, I’m contemplating another change. Although I’m a firm believer in the old adage if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, I also don’t want to get stuck in a rut. So I’m looking at turning Always the Write Time into a daily blog post. Something along the lines of journaling. More rambling, if you will. And less refining. I’m hoping it will help me be better disciplined if I have a self-imposed deadline each day. So humor me if you will.

Always the write time to: try something new. If it doesn’t work, move on. If it does, then pat yourself on the back. As for me, I’m testing out a new blog format. What is one goal you’re contemplating for 2012?
