One of the big traditions with New Year's is to write resolutions. These goals are help make the new year even better than the old year. We asked the Inkspell authors what their resolutions are. Here's their responses. What are your New Year's Resolutions? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rebecca Hart: Being a big procrastinator, I have never been much for making resolutions. Mostly because I generally forget about them or try to ignore the fact that I made them within days of doing so. But, 2013 is a new year, so why not give it a go, right? So this year, my resolutions are these: 1. Complete two novels and have ready for query at some point during the year. 2. Get on the new treadmill we got for Christmas at least twice a week. (this one is so not going to happen, but adding it makes me look good) 3. Set aside at least one hour each week for undivided "kid time" with my youngest daughter, Shelby. 4. DO NOT GET A NEW DOG THIS YEAR NO MATTER HOW CUTE THEY ARE. That's it for me. Simple is better to my way of thinking, and I figure if I keep them small and manageable, I have a much better shot at keeping them. Happy New Year, everyone :) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Aubrie Dionne: Both of my New Year's resolutions are writing related for 2013. I'm going to check my Amazon book ranks less- trying for once a month instead of three times a day! (What a time suck that is!) And, I'm not going to read my reviews. The bad ones just bring me down, and then it takes a whole day to get the courage back up to write again. Like last year, I'm vowing to write 1k a day everyday, so I end of with 365K at the end of the year. This past year I made it to 316,090. Almost. But in 2013, I'll make it to 365! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lisa Voisin: I believe in the power of intention and goal setting, and around the end of the old year, I review my year and assess where I am at, so I can chart my course for the future. To that end, here are my intentions for 2013: - to be physically active, and to that end, I plan to run another 10KM run. I did this in 2012, and was quite successful. - to finish writing books two and three of The Watcher trilogy and see them through to publication. - to make more time for myself in my meditation practice, for everything flows better from there. - and on a personal note, to endeavor to not take things personally, remembering that other people's opinions of me are not only none of my business, but also reflections of their own world. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Deb Peterson: I prefer to think of them as "goals' rather than "resolutions," because as everyone knows, resolutions are only made to be broken and goals are made to be reached... ;) So with that in mind, my top priority goals for this year are to complete all three of my works in progress, become an expert in marketing...(I hate marketing, so anyone want to help me out with that one?) and spend far more time with my beloved family! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stephanie Lawton: Other than the ever-repeating resolution to lose weight (ugh), I'm going to make it a point to write some edgy stuff in different genres under my pen name. I love YA and romance, but I'm craving the freedom to push the envelop into erotica, horror, fetish, etc. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< T. Michelle Nelson: I resolve to try even more new things, prove to myself that age is only a number and get into the best shape of my life. To motivate myself to do this, I am signing up to participate in Tough Mudder, a 10-12 mile endurance event with obstacles designed by British Special Forces. Most participants undoubtedly, will be younger and in better shape than me, but I fully intend on crossing that finish line. My mother has always told me there is nothing I couldn't accomplish once I set my mind to it, although I seriously doubt she meant anything like this. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Majanka Verstraete: Here are my resolutions for the New Year: 1) Write six new novels this year. I wrote four last year, so I'm trying to bring that number up. 2) Make a list of weekly goals and a list of monthly goals and stick to them. 3) Read and review 150 books (I reached this number last year and I hope I can do it again!) 4) Go on a trip out of the country. 5) Exercise regularly (which means, at least three days a week) 6) Finish last year of university and get my degree. 7) Get my driver's license! It would be about time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Brooke Moss: This year my resolution is to put work on the back burner, and focus on my family as much as possible. Don't worry, I'll still be writing fun stories for my delightful readers to enjoy, but with five children and a wonderful hubby--as well as the horrific acts in Connecticut this past December--my priorities have shifted. I am so richly blessed with a gorgeous family, and I need to seize each day knowing that it could be taken away at any time. Happy New Year, InkSpell readers! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Kristy Centeno: My new year’s resolution list: 1- Finish the MS I have started. 2- Find a bigger house to move into. 3- Focus a little more on life outside of work. 4- Go to Disney with the kids. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stephanie Keyes: I love making New Year's resolutions. A clean slate and a fresh start for a brand new year! I have a short list for 2013 that consists of the following: -Release The Fallen Stars -Edit and Release The Star Catcher -Write a brand-new Paranormal Romance! -Continue to spend more time with my family -Continue with my workout regime Happy New Year Inkspell readers! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Naya Nikki: My new years resolutions are: 1) Get a 2:1 in my 2nd year at university 2) Do a good deed everyday 3) Get experience in publishing/editorial work so I can pursue it as a career Share your resolutions? Do you have any in common with our authors?

Hello, my name is Miss Evelyn , I'm from UK. I want to testify that there is a spell caster that is genuine and real. I never really believed in any of these things but when I was loosing my boy friend james, I needed some one to help me when I found [email protected] and i ordered a lover spell. After some 3days later, my phone rang when John call me to apologize. John was his old self again and wanted to come back to me! Not only come back, the spell caster opened his eyes to know how much I loved and needed him. Spell Casting is not brainwashing but they opened his eyes to know how much we have to share together. Anyone who is in my old situation or have some other problem should consult Dr baba He will bring you wonderful surprises as well as your lover back to you. The way things were meant to be." You can contact the great spell at [email protected] He is very nice and great.

When I married my husband I was already pregnant and so I didn't have a job. He had a really good job though so I was able to stay home and take care of our son when it was born. When we had our second child we moved to a bigger house, but then strange things started to happen. Things would fly off the walls and doors would slam at night. Our oldest son talked about seeing figures and hearing voices. We consulted a medium and they said the house was haunted. After living there about a year more with only minor occurrences we moved out. That was when the bad luck started to happen. Everything started to fail, with my husband's job, our money and our luck in general. I went back to the same medium and they told me that a spirit had followed me and placed a curse upon me for disturbing it and not being respectful in the previous house. He tried to remove it but was unable. The misfortune kept going on and getting more severe as I tried to search out someone to break the curse. But when I found Dr.Azonto spell he finally did it. Things started turning around almost immediately after he cast the spell and have been great from there! This was really a miracle for us, thank you . [email protected] spell from the bottom of my heart! 5/18/2013 09:32:08 pm
