Technically it isn’t the new year yet, but I think we’re all ready for it. 2015, it’s been fun, but I’m ready for a fresh start. I’m ready to get back to reading and writing, but I’m also ready to get back to my passion for being outside, for traveling, for photography. Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year, there is no doubt, and my family and I enjoyed a spectacular Christmas. But it’s time for a new adventure.
I’m finally at the point in my life where I can tell people what I want and not be hesitant or afraid of what they’ll think. I’m also finally at the point where I know for sure that yes, this is what I want, beyond the shadow of a doubt. And what I want is to be able to fully support myself with my books and my writing. I want that freedom. I think that’s all I’ve ever really wanted. The physical world is full of limitations, but with words, with books, anything is possible. That’s what I love most.
In 2016, I want to read more, support more authors, write more reviews. I want to publish at least three more books. I want to take better care of myself (the typical I’m going to eat healthier and exercise more resolution). But most of all, I want to hold on to why I do what I do. I want to remember all of the extraordinary things that life has to offer. I want adventure and blue skies and oceans and mountains.
Welcome, welcome 2016. I’m ready for you.

Keep the faith Jackie 🙂
It’s the thing that keeps me going as well.
Thank you, Ernesto!
