My Answers

1. I had the time to participate in all NaNo activities.

3. Strong, fast, and wild.
4. The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson. I'm now officially hooked.
5. I learned some ways to healthily deal with emotions. I'm getting better at talking to people as well.
6. Habits are really hard to make and really hard to break.
7. Sort of. My resolution was to write a novel, and I did, I just missed a big chunk in the middle...
8. I'd explain some of the problems that I finally figured out this year. I got a lot of answers to old questions recently.
9. I was a beta reader for a friend. It was fun, she writes some pretty good stuff. I can't wait for her to get published. I just wish I would have been more helpful than I was.
10. 2020 was a jerk. A total jerk.
11. I want to read the rest of The Stormlight Archive series by Brandon Sanderson, and I want to read Miranda Marie's Whispers of White duology in addition to some other books that are on my massive To Be Read list. 
12. Don't bend to what others want you to dojust because you think they want you to.

14. Well for starters, I would keep writing, and on top of that, I'd look at getting a degree at a really nice college.
15. A fresh start in the spring. 2020 was, as I said before, a jerk.
16. Other than writing, I'd like to improve my art skills and do more knitting. 
17. I'm not really sure other than it would have to be somewhere with a cat café. Maybe Boston.
18. Music. I play cello and haven't been practicing lately, but I'd like to change that.

20. Do what I can and set healthy limits for myself.
