Great goals everyone!
Mine:
--Work with my publishing company to get a finished version of my novel, which is due for release at the end of 2015. Stay calm and centered. Accept criticism. Keep an open mind about whatever they have to say and try to learn from the entire process (this is my first book deal and I'm nervous!!!)
--Complete a tight synopsis and some sample pages from my next novel to submit to publishers by March and fulfill my contract. (and hopefully come up with a lot of new ideas to make this book GREAT)
--Complete another rewrite of my contemporary love story and start looking for an agent if I have time. If I don't, I'll save that one to focus on in 2016.
--Promote the crap out of my first novel, gain more twitter followers, and generally do everything I can to earn myself the attention I deserve.
--Get my writers website, goodreads page, Facebook, and blog up and running. (Everything is on hold until we get a final title)
...I think that's it.
I feel you on that! I've got to pitch something in March, and I doubt I'm going to have time to complete anything by then. I'm hoping an awesome concept, tight synopsis, and some quality sample pages will be enough for now.

Under contract to deliver a novel in May. Haven't started it yet, so there's that...
