New Years Resolutions for PFP

Well! It's the new year! Which means it's time for blog-related resolutions! I didn't do it last year, because, to be honest, I wasn't sure how long I'd keep up with it before I'd run out of crap to say.

Apparently I've got a LOT of crap to say.

So anyway, as it looks like I'm in for the long haul...resolutions ho!

---

1. Post at least once every day (barring unforeseen circumstances).

I actually managed this last year, so I'm pretty confident I can keep up with it. I'm not promising quality though.

2. Post more critical/analytical essays.

I think I've been slipping lately. I'm hoping that now that work has calmed down again I'll be able to get my ass in gear.

I do have a Kilowog and Guy post floating somewhere in my head that I'd really like to yank out.

3. Learn to tell a joke.

This is an embarrassing thing to admit, but I can NOT be intentionally funny. Seriously. Or rather, sometimes I can, but it's something like shooting darts with my eyes closed. The jokes hit sporadically.

4. Post more creative works.

Excerpts maybe. I don't know. I'm terribly shy when it comes to unfinished stuff. Still, I got to build up courage somewhere, huh?

At least Sims's thirty-second recap contest is good motivation to try! I've already got two panels!

5. Read more older comic series.

I like reading older series when I can track down issues, so this shouldn't be too hard. Just because I'm a relative newbie comic fan doesn't mean I have to blog like one. :-P

6. Read at least one indy comic.

And any sent to me for review probably shouldn't count. This is going to be harder actually. I'm very picky about comics and genres that I like. Still, I probably should branch out from standard superhero fare once in a while.

7. Blog more about manga.

I'm not a huge manga fan NOW, but for a good decade, I was hunting tankoban and those phone book-type catalogues with the best of them. There are a lot of series I still enjoy and could have fun talking about. And ranting is always fun too.

8. Make a complete one-eighty on a character I hate.

Hey, it worked for Nightwing and Jade this past year. I like being able to suddenly appreciate characters I initially couldn't stand. I always feel like I've gained a new perspective.

9. I will finally sit down and watch that damned Nick Fury movie! And blog!

Because it must be done.

10. I will finally FINISH TAGGING MY DAMN POSTS. And reply to all the comments I've been neglecting.

...eventually. :-)
