Hello 2017!


Wow! 2016 is already over. It seems like it just started yesterday. Today I will be sharing some of my goals for this year. Yes, I do know that the first week of 2017 is almost over. But at least I'm actually posting one. :)  Here are my goals for 2017.



Goals:

Writing:
Finish all of my drafts of Royal Fire. (My novel.)
Get it off to my beta readers.
Start the publishing process.
Try writing long hand with a new novel. ;)

Life:
Grow closer to God.
Read the Bible more often.
Learn to rap. (Christian rap.) (This is a fairly easy goal. Once I get the hang of it I'm going to try free styling.)

Reading:
Try two new series.
Finish a series.
Broaden my reading horizon.
Read more books that I own.

Blogging:
Post once a week. (Probably on Fridays.)
Get better at blogging.

That about covers it. What are some of your goals? How is your new year so far? Is wanting to learn to rap weird?

    These are great goals, Jonathan! :)
    That’s great that you’re planning to finish your book. I’m looking forward to reading it. ;)
    No, I don’t think that learning to wrap is weird. Not at all! It especially comes in handy around Christmas time with all of those presents…Wait! You mean “rap” as in the music! Like the stuff you want to cover your ears during…Ummm…no, I guess learning that isn’t too weird. *wink*

    You're going to brave beta readers soon as well?!? That's awesome! :D

    Rapping IS cool (when it's clean, of course) and it's great that you're going to try it! I personally don't listen to it, but I wish you all luck :)

Highlighting March.

Image
Wow! March has already marched on. *plays "Imperial March" in the background*  I decided to post about my highlights of March. Here are some of my highlights of this month. Track started!! I decided on a beginning for my book.  We celebrated my brother James' birthday.   We got some new chicks. I got glasses. That actually happened in February though. I found a new (to me) author. His name is Wayne Thomas Batson. These are the books I read this month. "The Magician's Nephew" by C. S. Lewis "The Last Ride" by Susan K. Marlow (For the record my sister and I traded books and this is the one I got. Otherwise I wouldn't have read it.) "An Acceptable Time" by Madeline L'Engle (I haven't finished this one yet.)  I listened to some awesome music this month. Here's some of my favorites.    "My Religion" by Skillet (This song is AWESOME.) "Alone" by Hollyn "The River"

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Review!!!

Image
       It has been thirty years since the destruction of the Empire. The First Order is trying to take control of the galaxy. The only thing standing there way is a small band of Resistance fighters, a scavenger, An ex-soldier, and a pilot. Sex- none Drugs- none Language- 1 D*mn, 1 H*ll, 1H*ll no Nudity- none Violence- Spaceships explode, characters are shot with blasters and punched, cut and stabbed with lightsabers.        Character is shocked. Several explosions.       First of all I want to say this movie is AWSOME!!! I liked that they had the original actors. I also really like the new actors. The action and humor was really good. I do wish that it had more space battles, but the spaceship battles they had were good.       A lot of people I know think Kylo Ren should have kept his helmet or should have been played by a different person. They did not like the actor. I on the other hand thought he was a little young, but other than that I tho
