So are you moving ahead on the New Year goals you set? Did you implement my plan or devise one of your own?

Whether you use <a href="http://judythewriter.wordpress.com/2013/01/14/failure-to-plan-is-planning-to-fail-a-plan-for-success/" target="_blank">my plan </a>or any plan, I hope you'll let 2013 be the year you claim your dream!

I found several suggestions on blogs to help us achieve writing success using a theme for the year.

The authors over at <a href="http://www.novelmatters.com/" target="_blank">Novel Matters</a>  declared  <i>Carpe Annum – Seize the Year </i>for their theme<i>.  </i>Check out the details and suggestions <a href="http://www.novelmatters.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.  

Fellow Wana112mate Sherry Isaac suggests we do some <a href="http://sherryisaac.com/2013/01/19/baby-stepping/" target="_blank">Baby Steppin’</a> That is, we move ahead one baby step at a time. You'll love the clip she shares.

Whether you choose<em> Carpe Annum </em>or <em>Baby Steeppin' </em>or come up with your own theme. Just having a theme is a great way to focus on success.

If you still harbor some fear about moving ahead with writing goals and think you don't have the time to devote to your dream, <a href="http://www.ediemelson.com/" target="_blank">Edie Melson</a>, social media coach and blogger, offers this advice: <a href="http://thewriteconversation.blogspot.com/2013/01/want-to-do-more-with-your-writinglearn.html" target="_blank">Want to Do More with Your Writing—Learn to Say No</a> She provides very specific ways to put your writing goals first.

My best advice is summed up here: <a href="http://judythewriter.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/hey-writer.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2145" alt="hey writer" src="http://judythewriter.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/hey-writer.png" width="400" height="362" /></a>

Remember, a book is just a blank page and an eReader is a blank screen until you put your words on it.
