2011 will be the year

That I finish my first complete manuscript, edit it, and prepare it for submission.

I've been very busy since deciding to pursue this goal back in October. I've completed 3 Ed2Go classes - Romance Writing Secrets, Write Fiction Like a Pro, and A Writer's Guide to Descriptive Settings.

I've rewritten half of the novel I thought was about 95% finished before I started my classes. I plan to be finished with a complete first draft by the end of May.

I've joined 2 writer's groups with fellow students from my classes, where we have shared our work for feedback and exchanged all kinds of helpful information.

It's been so exciting to finally make this a priority in my life, and I can't wait for the next step on my journey!
