During the A to Z challenge last year, I outlined several goals for myself. When the challenge started in late spring, too much of the year had already went by for my to lay out year long goals.
However, I know that one goal I wanted - perhaps silently - to meet was to surpass the number of posts I had made in the previous two years within 2011. Between 2009 and 2010 I posted on my blog 221 times with 139 posts in 2009 and 82 posts in 2010. In 2011, I ended the year with 191 posts. This isn't quite the number I wanted, but it is very close. AND, it actually is a match when I discount the fact that the first few dozen posts in my blog were shorties dedicated to individual coupons before I really decided what I wanted to do here.
I have a goal now for 2012. I want to average a post a day. I don't need to post every last day of the year, but I want to have 365 posts by December 31, 2012. This is my 7th post in 24 days, so I am a bit behind the times. However, my blog tours and book reviews usually really take off in late spring and then again in the fall. I should also have a lot more to say about life here by spring or early summer.
This blogging goal is for MiscMayzee alone. I have several other blogs that I must also try to keep updated regularly. In fact, one of those sites pays more in ad revenue than this one, but I will always love this site more.
When I post a book review in a few minutes, I will have 8 posts - by the end of January my goal is 15 posts. Approximately less than 1/2 of a post a day. I will have to pull double duty 15 other days in the year to make up for it as well as to make up for other days I will not post.
If for any reason I greatly surpass this goal, I would have 1,000 posts here as 365 will put me firmly between 700 and 800 posts.
Here is to hoping for a good year!
