Pretty big year, 2011. Changed jobs, changed cities. Did some travelling. Read some new books and reread a ton of old ones.
I didn't get as much writing done as I would have liked, but I did get something completed and entered into a contest. Sure, I lost, but I was kind of expecting to - and getting something from concept to submission was a major improvement.
All in all, I'm pleased with the way things played out - personally, at least.
Of course, 2012 is an election year, with all the associated chaos and drama that seems to bring these days. The economy is still uncertain and I'm still pretty bearish on the long term stability of the whole system. I'm as well prepared as I think I can be, but the truth is we're all just sitting around waiting for Black Swans.
But you pay your money and you take your chances, same as everyone else who's ever lived.
Bring it on, Mayan Calendar Dudes.
