I don't do formal resolutions, but I do tend to use the New Year as an excuse to force myself to do things I should be doing already.
This year I'm trying to get more organized. I have two other businesses besides writing, so it's a continual juggling act. I'm going to try to do the following:
-Keep a daily time log of how much time I put into each activity for each business. I do Examiner.com and Demand Studio stuff in addition to my regular freelancing, so it will be interesting to weigh the pay-off vs. time spent on them.
-Immediately log all incoming correspondance (acceptances, checks, rejections). I used to be good about that but really slacked off lately.
-Clean up/organized computer files. They always seem to be out of control.
-Stick to a regular back-up schedule. I got a 32 gig flash chip for Christmas so now I have no excuse.
Anyone else trying for a more organized 2009?
