It's 2018 - Happy New Year

Y'all do right by yourself, and those around you.

The past two years have been tough lessons in tolerance and acceptance versus separation, hatred, and bigotry. We must push forward and continue to be our best selves and live our best lives.

And talk about Prince. wink


Happy new year, everyone.

What are your plans for 2018? Not resolutions, just plans in general. For me, I'm pushing for a self-imposed April deadline for my second book. I've mentioned having a friend who was an executive assistant for a very, very famous pop singer. We're taking her (the friend's) story and writing a novel about the music business and an up'n'coming singer in R&B. That book is after the April book, and I expect to spend a couple of years on it. We hope to make it as juicy as it is truthful. It's not a biography, but certainly one view of being on the front line of working with a singer who everyone wants a piece of 24/7.

I also plan to have more sex. Becuase - DUH.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

I'm going to be ambitious this year:

1. Write two screenplays (Why not? Who else is actually writing original movies?)
2. Develop Houston landmark (It's time to think gigantic here)
3. Increase profitability at wife's company (It's time to think big here)
4. Add 5 - 7 pounds of muscle (Muscle, not fat LOL. Fat would be too easy to add!)
5. Start foundation that will alter American politics (I'm tired of the hate and have a way to hopefully fix it)
6. Record some songs (In order to get better)
7. Fix house (Flooded in Hurricane Harvey; repairs in process)
8. Give some speeches/begin writing book (These are intertwined)
9. Go to church every week (It makes me feel good)

If I think of anything else, I'll add it to the list

Go get 'em! I'd love to hear all about the books, but nothing about the sex. I'm just going to assume you reached that goal, LOL.

Well, I'm going to take having a Wolf Moon right at New Years as a positive sign. Just because I can.

I got engaged at the stroke of midnight on New Years Eve so hopefully I'll be getting married at some point in 2018. Maybe towards the end of the year so I'll have a bit of time to do some more theatre stuff so I can actually pay for the wedding. Plus, I'll be 28 in April and I know that's not old but it's getting a bit old to play the roles I normally play so if I don't get up off my arse now, I never will.

Sorry to hear that. I can certainly relate. 2017 basically sucked, all-around.

.

All the best with your book and new business! Things will get better.
