My Fanboy New Year's Resolutions.

I took time off from writing the blog for the holidays. This was needed as it was a crazy time for me and I needed the time.

However I did take time to reflect on where I want to go with this blog in the New Year. Let’s take a moment to look at my Fanboy News Network resolutions for the 2012.

First off my wife and I are rearranging our house. She is dedicated to make her home craft business Twisted Kitten Creations a success and I want to start making video entries. To facilitate this we are rearranging the house to give us more room for our creative activates. This will give her more room for making her products and give me a space to use as a recording studio.

This leads straight to my next resolution. Start making videos for the site. I have a plan now. Once the house is rearranged I will start making them. I may take a couple of tries at it before I release anything, but I will at least start recording. Once I start posting my goal will be a video port every two weeks. I’ve already invested in a more powerful computer to handle the editing.

And now I will make the statement that is sure to come back to haunt me. I vow that there will be a post on the blog every Saturday. This means that every Saturday I miss will bring me the burning shame of missing a deadline. If that doesn’t get me writing more nothing will.

I will do more posts that are reviews of material relevant to geek culture and not just editorials.

I will look at expanding beyond just a blog and work to make this a more legitimate site. I will look for advice from my sister as she is much more successful at this. (Assuming she buys my line about this being what family does for each other.)

I will start promoting the blog more. This is hard because despite doing this I hate going out and promoting myself because I fear that I will come off as an egotistical ass. I need to get over it if I actually plan on ever finding a larger audience. Again I will ask my sister for advice. 

And my wife.

 And Aron from the comic shop.

And my other friends

And those of you reading this.

Help!

Where was I?

I will make an honest effort to make a backlog of articles so that if life gets in my way I will still have something to post every Saturday.

I will create a catch phrase to end blog posts. I feel I just sort of end right now.

There it is, my goals

So with that here are some projects I am working on.

1.       An article on the power held by geek culture and that pros and cons that brings.

2.       A series of reviews cover Universal Horror, both written and eventually in video.

3.       A video series on what makes Seattle the Geek capital of the World.

4.       A new Alternate Interpretations.

5.       Tales from my days working at Wizards of the Coast.

6.       Tales from my days as one of the founding members of the Camarilla.

We will check in in on this list in July and see how well I did.

Have a happy New Year.
