Happy New Year!

So, how was 2011 for you?
I've had a good year. Getting engaged was obviously the highlight, but I've also had success with my writing. I've had more stories published than in any previous year and I won a poetry competion. It might no be just coindence that this year I've written and submitted more than in previous years.

What plans do you have for 2012?
I'll be getting married, working harder than ever at my writing, baking lots of cakes, taking pictures, travelling, gardening and getting geeky. That should keep me busy.

There's just time for one last competition this year if you're quick. Oh all right, I'll make it two.

Best wishes for 2012!

In response to your question, 2011 was a great year for me, and I am aiming for 2012 to be even greater.

No doubt you'll be busy with wedding plans, congratulations Patsy. Not too busy to write, I hope, and to keep us all up-to-date with comps info, although we'll allow you one day off for your wedding, lol.

Happy New Year
Dora

Patsy,

You had a wonderful 2011, and this year is going to be even better for you. I hope all your plans and dreams come true. You deserve it!

I shall continue taking lots of pictures, writing, and walking. Draft two of my novel needs to begin as well.
