I've not detailed my 2014 goals, but I have been writing a few poems which is a relief after a drought of a couple of months. I'm trying to take a bit of a different approach in letting the ideas slip, slide and flow between poetry, fiction, and essays and see if that helps (or hurts). So far it seems to help and has at least somewhat broken through the block.

I've taken a story that I've been working but have not completed to my satisfaction and turned it into a poem, have also taken a couple of ideas that would probably fall into the story or novel category and written them as poems. It seems fruitful so far.

One definite goal is to release a new book of poetry.
Possibly another book of science essays (several are already written)
And hopefully complete several short stories.
non-writing-wise I want to do at least several pencil drawings.

I guess my main goal is to make it through the year without having to go back to work for The Man and hopefully be able to file for early retirement next year in order to continue the creative pursuits.
