Happy New Year!

Okay, maybe it's not New Year's Day for the Gregorian Calendar folks, but for the Chinese and Koreans today is the beginning of the new year.  I had a bunch of good intentions and resolutions on January 1st to post a blog entry, but ended up laid low by a nasty flu bug.  Other than school starting, a visitor from Japan, torrential rains, and a bit of snow there's not been much going on here since then.

I've been thinking of a lot of resolutions and goals I wish to accomplish this year.  One of them is blogging more frequently.  Let's hope I come up with something compelling to share or this will be a painful resolution for all of us.

In the meantime, I'll be writing more about writing, a bit about travel--we've got a few trips on the agenda for 2012--some about the home front and it's an election/Olympic year, so that might provide some fodder.  Oh, and I'm going to be embarking down the self-publishing road, but that's another story.

Here's to a powerful year of the Dragon, let's get this party started.
