Resolved | 2023 Resolution
So, here we are at the end of 2023. Was my new year’s resolution resolved? It was! Maybe not quite how I had envisioned it would be back in January or yielding exactly the same sort of feelings of accomplishment … Continue reading
Not Much to Say | 2023 Resolution
It’s been a few months since posting anything in my 2023 Resolution series. At first blush that might seem bad, but I actually reckon it’s good. I’ve been so busy meeting the goal of the resolution that I haven’t needed … Continue reading
Oops! | 2023 Resolution
In the last post for my 2023 Resolution series, I started envisioning the rest of year – and then nothing! It’s been nearly two months since then without any followup or much activity at all on this blog. Time’s slipped … Continue reading
Starting to Envision the Rest of the Year | 2023 Resolution
It’s been about a month since I checked in with this series, a mostly fun and fairly active few weeks with plenty of blogging. As I said in my last 2023 Resolution post, ‘I’ve got my mojo back.’ I think … Continue reading
Progress | 2023 Resolution

Results | 2023 Resolution
Hello. It’s been a few weeks since I last logged in to write something for my 2023 Resolution series. I’m not too concerned about the lapse though, because I am actually keeping my resolution, to start blogging regularly again. A … Continue reading
Back | 2023 Resolution
Hey folks. I’m back after a few weeks hiatus from my 2023 Resolution. For part of that time off, I was traveling. Pertaining to my resolution to start blogging regularly again, my trip served to whet my appetite to continue … Continue reading
Recap and Break | 2023 Resolution
Eleven posts in as many weeks with a couple of busy weeks ahead, I thought now would be a good time to pause my 2023 Resolution series and take stock of what I’ve shared thus far. I’m pretty happy with … Continue reading

Overcoming Inertia | 2023 Resolution
Welcome back to my 2023 Resolution series. Since my last post, I’ve been thinking a lot about inertia, how it stands in the way of me writing regularly and how I can move past it. I’ve come up with some … Continue reading
Inertia | 2023 Resolution
And more time lapses between these posts … But it’s not necessarily because of lack of initiative. My job is getting in the way a bit, and my work schedule is tighter and busier than it was at the start … Continue reading
Good | 2023 Resolution
Uh oh! It’s been well past a week and I’ve yet to publish anything new in this series, or anything else for that matter. No big deal, really, but I have noticed motivation and dedication continuing to slide since my … Continue reading
Rigamarole | 2023 Resolution
Through the ‘resolution’ writing process that I kicked off last month, I realised that I already have strategies for embracing serendipity and appreciating the good in my life. I recalled how I once applied those strategies to writing. I’m glad … Continue reading
Acknowledging What’s Good | 2023 Resolution
My previous post in this 2023 Resolution series was about how I ought to try incorporating serendipity into my writing process. As I wrote the post, I realised I had already developed a way of incorporating serendipity into my writing, … Continue reading
Allowing Serendipity to Play a Role | 2023 Resolution
In just three weeks, my blog post about my new year’s resolution has evolved into a series of five posts. That was not the plan or how I thought this resolution might play out.
Adapting | 2023 Resolution
The moment when I happened upon the parakeets in my back garden last week remains at the fore of my thoughts. The image of those birds – once considered exotic and rare but now a relatively common yet still strikingly … Continue reading
And Then … Parakeets | 2023 Resolution
My last post was about not having anything to write but deciding to publish a post anyway if only to give myself a chance to exercise my creative muscles and get back into the routine of writing regularly. But as … Continue reading
One Week Later | 2023 Resolution

2017 Resolutions
Typos. I’ve got ‘em – and far too many for me to be blasé about. My number one resolution of 2017 (as it pertains to this blog and my work as a writer) is to type right and improve my proof reading. Continue reading
2016 Resolutions
For 2016, I hope to not only continue trying for the chance to tell compelling stories, but also to realise more fully my voice in that process.

2015 Resolutions
In many ways, I feel like I hit my stride in 2014 (as much as ‘my stride’ pertains to my work as a writer and photographer anyway). I’m generally pleased with the amount and quality of work that came my way – especially during the last half of the year – and very much hope such good fortune continues well into 2015.

2014 Resolutions

2013 Resolutions
This year I’m going to make considerably more money, crush any competitor who stands in my way and come out on top. Resolute! I’m also thinking 2013 might finally be the year I break down and buy that gorilla suit … Continue reading
2012 Resolutions
Yeah so I’m taking my own sweet time gradually getting around to making my new year’s resolutions for 2012. Bear with me please. I’m still a bit jet lagged after three weeks in the States and playing as capable a … Continue reading
2011 Resolutions
I’ve been writing a new year’s resolutions post for a couple of years (2009 resolutions, 2010 resolutions) and reckon there’s no reason I should stop now. I didn’t accomplished everything I set out to do last January – I’m no … Continue reading
Resolute in 2010!
2010 Resolutions This time last year, I listed five things in my life that, over the following 12 months, I would try to improve. For the most part, I feel that I achieved those ’09 goals or at least kept … Continue reading
Online and Looking Ahead!
Okay I’m back in town and ready to take on 2009. Of course, if you’ve been following my tikichris to go and ontoTravel blogs, you’d be forgiven for thinking that I never really went away. Now two weeks deep into … Continue reading
