So have you made any resolutions for the new year?
Here are mine...
Lol, okay, on the more practical side: I continue to search for easy and quick recipes that'll help me feed my family and myself healthy, home-cooked meals with minimum fuss and stress. To that end, I found this helpful list of articles on Food52 about tackling New Year's Resolutions
Also, I have returned to full-time journalism again. At the end of 2015, I covered issues like Texas' Open Carry policy, an ordinance banning texting and other cell phone/computer use while driving, and stories about our local family shelter. Important stories that help make a different in my community.
However, this means I didn't get much of my own writing done at the end of 2015 and I miss my words. While fiction seems to pale in importance when I compare them to some of my journalistic pieces, the truth is when I desperately need solace and hope, I turn off the news. Instead, I find myself a good story with romance and adventure...and yes, I find everything I need. So in 2016 I'm seeking to balance my two writing worlds.
xoxo,
Mina
