The Northern Edit

It’s that time of year again. Out with old and in with the new as we ring in 2025. What is your New Year’s resolution this year?

I have a few resolutions I’ve made, but one is to write more. In particular, I’ve made a pact with myself to work on my personal creative writing more. I kind of jumped ahead of the New Year and have started implementing a goal to write a little bit of something every single day. Even if I write one sentence I will consider this a goal accomplished!

Another goal I make every year is to read a certain number of books. I love using Goodreads to keep track of what I’ve read and I use their “reading challenge” feature to work on my reading goals. I committed to reading 25 books in 2024 and so far I’ve read 27! This is the first year I’ve accomplished my reading challenge goal and victory sure is sweet.

I haven’t fully decide what my goal for 2025 will be. I may keep the goal set at 25 or be a bit more ambitious and bump it to 30. What do you think?
