New Year resolution lists are such a cliche. But that’s never stopped me before, so here goes. In 2008, I resolve to:

Read more books.
Wag more, bark less. (That’s actually a bumper sticker on my car.)

Take longer walks.
Lose five pounds. (I told you this was a cliche.)
Finish the novel I’m writing before the deadline.
And once I’ve finished the book, go back to taking voice lessons.
Be kinder.
Try to like beets. Last year I learned to like brussel sprouts, so now anything is possible in the vegetable department.

Happy New Year.
