So this is more "what I did" than my usual year-end scorecard.
General Fitness
I estimate that I exercised about as much last year as I have been for the last several years: ie, biking 30-80 miles a week or so. I exercise less in the winter because my exercise bike is so much less fun than biking outside. -_-
I am up two pounds from my weight at this time last year. My diet is as bad as ever. Maybe worse.
Editing
I wrote the second draft of A Rational Arrangement.
alltoseek read it for the first time, and had a bunch of suggestions, most of which I agree with, unfortunately. This is unfortunate because it means I should actually implement them (if I disagreed I could just ignore them and that would be much easier). So I want to do a third draft. Or at least, I want to have a third draft done and no one is going to do it for me. Writing
Blogging I wrote about 75 blog posts last year, not including posts of A Rational Arrangement for my beta-readers.
Fiction I wrote some new scenes for RA in the process of revising it. I also wrote assorted dragon bios in Flight Rising. And I resumed work on Birthright, the sequel to Silver Scales, in November. That last was most of my new writing for the year, about 23,000 words.
RoleplayI started a new play-by-email game, "Elect", which by the grace of my players hasn't died yet. I need to respond to some posts for it.
Art Stuff
I bought a new sketchbook and did a bunch of small sketches and color pieces in it. Almost all of it was simple stuff, though I did do one large illustration that I gifted to
koogrr. I also colored one of the pictures from one of haikujaguar's coloring books. Coloring in a coloring book takes me a lot longer now than it did when I was 5.Other Stuff
I traveled more than usual last year: attending Conflation in St. Louis, a few trips to see
terrycloth in the Seattle area, a trip to go to a bunch of concerts with alinsa in the bay area, attending shaterri and quarrel's wedding, going to my parents' 50th anniversary celebration, the Europe trip with M, and visiting koogrr in Toronto. It was a good year for traveling.
