Not much time to blog since I've been busy with CITY SECRETS. Like, really busy. But it's over a week into the new year and I haven't talked about goals/wishes for the New Year. I'm trying to focus on things that are in *my* control, but I also want to spend the first new year in NYC just living and seeing what happens. Sometimes, it's seemed the less I try to make things happen--the better things work out.
In 2010, I hope to:
* Finish Canterwood 9-12 and keep building Team Canterwood
* Write an edgy YA novel proposal
* Write an adult novel proposal with BFF
* Write a new tween book
* Read more. Waaay more.
* Write more. Waaay more.
* Go out and have fun
* Stay in and have pizza/movie parties
* Vlog more
* Buy stock in Sephora ;)
* Walk through the park after a fresh, heavy snow
* Go on vacation--(maybe to the Jersey Shore?) ;) Haha.
What're your resolutions/goals/dreams for the New Year?
PS--As soon as it's announced, I'll blog about it, but super sparkly congratulations to my BFF for having something awesome, amazing and sooo well deserved happen for her last night.

Cool goals Jessica. Love them! And I can't wait to get further into the canterwood crest series!!!! I'm almost finished with Chasing Blue and its one of those books that you can't put down and you just have to keep reading . . . I love it! I stay up late reading it because when I see the next chapter its like "I gotta read it" You naughty girl, you make me stay up late ;-) Thanks so much for CC Jess I love them!!
Oh one question Jessica. Is Eric black? Just wondering . . .
My goals/resolutions? hmm, I've only made one so far, to trust God with every corner of my life. And another one is to finish my novel and get it published. I probably have a lot more too. :-)
Aw, thanks, Joannah! And Eric's Hispanic. :)
Hey Jess,
AWESOME goals. I can't wait 4 the release of the next CC book. As soon as they come out I beg my mom to go to indigo to get it. And then I finish it the day I get it.;)

Horse goals:
* I ride english/western, I got my horse in oct and have never ridden english on him, I hope to jump on him and. . . post correctly. Haha

Maybe my crush will ask me out too. . . I can dream, it's not gonna happen.

Awesome goals!! Mine are to walk closer to God and like Joannah, trust him with every corner of my life, get more involved with church, stuff like that.
Great goals Jessica, but I can't imagine you writing anymore than you already do...lol! You are one of my inspirations when I make excuses about getting work done.
One of my goals for the year will come to fruition when I attend my first writer's conference this year, the SCBWI in NYC at the end of this month.
Other goals include completing s several writing projects.
Good luck to you and everyone else with their goals this year :)
BTW, just got my first Canterwood Crest book in the mail yesterday.
My new years resolution is to jump 2'6 on my horse and also to get my crush that I've liked for a year and a half to ask me out *sigh* o wells ( he's two years older than me and he knows that I like him)
Hmmm, crushes and books? No, no one on this site has anything in common. ;-) lol. Well I am going to finish my book this year, actually two of them!! I'm on page 112 of notebooks pages for the first one and just 11 for the second. :-)
Hey Jess I still love your books even though I don't post as much anymore it just means that I am reading more like you want to do and if Eric were real he'd so be with my best friend (Thats for you Sara) and Ryan would be mine hehe :D I got the hint that Eric was Hispanic but i tought he was Hispanic American. Thanks for inspiring me Jess I hope to finish my four books 2 of witch my friend Lauren is helping me write
Resolutions... hmm... well i have riding goals like jump 2 feet and to learn how to gallop but unlike everyone else, i am not a writer and have no crushes. I live for the horses:) good goals jess, and it would be so cool if you wrote more books than CC!
Well here are some of my goals:
*Finish the novel/fanfic I'm writing
*Finish reading the Marauder fanfic that I LOVE!
*Do great at my upcoming horse show!!
*Read RR and the rest of the CC books till I drop;)
*Survive 8th grade AND finish my 2 major projects

Great goals! And also I didn't know Eric was Hispanic, I just read the books and thought he was a tan American! :) LOL!
This is kinda off topic but...does the Rival Revenge thread have a lot of spoilers? Because I've been afraid to look there and have it give away everything. Please answer my question!
My goals are to:
1.keep making straight As
2.try dressage and cross country
3.jump three feet
4.get a horse(very possible once my grandparents sell their house in Orange Beach, Alabama and move here they said they will buy me a horse)
5.keep doing good at soccer(had to add that in there so I didn't have like all horse goals)
I love these book so for my book report im useing books 3 and 4 if u can help thats will be awesome!!!!!!! xoxoxox <3
