News from Nowhere

On January 1 I published a blogpost that set myself three goals for 2013. The last two of these aims were relatively general and were to be worked on throughout the year: whether I had successfully achieved those aims or not would unfold over the space of the year; at this early stage in the calendar at least, there would be no clear signs of success or failure. Only one of these aims - the first of them - contained specific details to which I could be held accountable for. Relating to this blog, my first aim for 2013 was to make sure that I blogged at least once week. Given that this is my first blogpost since January 1, I think it's fairly safe to say that, so far, 2013 is not going as I planned it to. That is not to say that my first New Year goal is a complete and utter failure. Not only have I looked at the blog between 1 January and now, but I have been working on some new posts. The problem is that, as with last year, those posts that I have been working on remain works in progress. So, by posting this short update about my lack of progress in posting updates to my blog, I'm intending to conclude the vicious circle I was recreating for myself for this year and begin a new, more virtuous circle of publication.
