Challenge #4: Since this is the start of a new year, this challenge will be e to set your own goals! Of course we can all make large or ambitious goals, remember that small and/or short goals are also good!

This challenge is a hardy perennial. So I looked back at what I wrote each year I've done Snowflake....

Yup. Just as I thought. Goals unmet, over and over.

So what might practical goals look like? Well, I've already signed up for [personal profile] candyheartsex; so doing my assignment for that. If [community profile] worldbuilding_exchange runs this year, then that one too. I've done [community profile] fkficfest every year since it started; so that one's likely. And in the fall, there's [community profile] trickortreatex and Yuletide: those, certainly. And multiple treats, at least for Yuletide. (This year I did three treats; and I've never done fewer than one. Plus my assignment.)

Yes, that's fairly doable, I think. Of course, I've got two fanfic series that are ongoing but incomplete; so I hope that maybe (maybe!) I can get another installment done on at least one of them. But longfic hopes are ... hopes and dreams, probably.

Next January, I'll have a look at this post and see what happened. I'm not crossing my fingers, though. It makes it hard to use the keyboard!

Practical goals are important, and yours sound eminently practical. So keep at doing the things that you're doing well. And maybe something will appear that helps you go beyond the practical and into the impressive for yourself.
