If you're willing to go non-fiction for Pohl and haven't already read it, he has an excellent semi-autobiographical work,
The Way the Future Was, which is available
via Baen, and which was kind-of continued on his very entertaining blog,
The Way the Future Blogs, right up until he died. I bought this as part of one of Baen's Pohl bundles a few years ago and
really enjoyed it (moreso than what I've read of his fiction thus far, sadly).
Anyway, my goals for next year are kept simple so that they'll hopefully be attainable this time around: read stuff (and catch up on my backlog of unwatched Blu-Rays and DVDs, while I'm at it), and record it so that in the future, I'll have at least some idea of whether or not I've read/watched something before.
