New Year Resolutions

I didn't think I was going to do any for fear of disappointment, but what the hell! With another year ahead full of some great books I wanted to set myself a few goals for my reading, reviewing and blogging. So, without further ado...

1. Read more! I read 65 books in 2009 and 52 of those were sci-fi, but this year I plan on reading more than that. If I can read 6 books a month I'll easily hit my target, but whether or not that happens is an entirely different story!
2. Keep on top of reviews. While this is an easy one, I sometimes find myself with a gap of a couple of weeks between what I've read and when I review it. This doesn't matter too much to me as it gives me time to reflect, but if I'm picking up the pace of my reading I want to make sure that I haven't got a backlog of reviews.
3. Keep to a regular blog posting schedule. This is one that fluctuates with me - I can have some months where I'll post almost every day and other where I post every couple of days. This all depends on what content I've got to post, but I want to keep up the reviews, cover art, links to interesting stuff and hopefully some interviews too. In other words, continue what I have been doing :)
4. Concentrate more on science fiction. With all the talk of the death of science fiction that has been going on recently I'm starting to get a little sick and tired of it. To highlight the fact I'll be doing my best to review quite a few 2010 releases. However, this all depends on what I actually have to read, so while I get sent some of the bigger releases of the year and buying others, there will be some I'll miss out on. If you're a publisher and have sci-fi books you'd like me to review just email me!
   
5. Try and read some more YA books, with the focus on sci-fi. I would love to see what sort of literature children and teenagers have in the sci-fi genre these days so will be making an effort to seek out new releases in this field.

So, a good few things there that I think will help me along the way this year. Just remember, because I'll be focusing more on sci-fi doesn't mean you'll see no fantasy books getting featured - they'll still be considered but will ultimately take a back seat to sci-fi (with a couple of exceptions!).

What resolutions do you have?

P.S. - On a personal note I'll be trying to lose more weight (I lost about 20lbs last year) and getting fitter, but that's always there at the start of the year!
