Happy New Year! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday.

Every Year I make New Year’s resolutions. They can range from spending more time with my family to exercising. Sometimes people make life changing resolutions such as finding a new job.

Unfortunately, before the end of January, I’m back into my usual schedule and the resolutions are forgotten.

Resolutions are actually changes. Change is difficult. Analysts have recommended different tactics on how to keep resolutions, but people are different. What works for one person won’t necessary work for the next person.

Sometimes we are forced to change. In my new book, Safe in His Embrace (Jan. 2010), an abusive ex-husband forces Senetra Blain to start her life over with a new identity in Homer, Alaska. But it isn’t long before she meets Alex Wilson. Although this wonderful man has literally fallen in her lap, it isn’t easy for her to trust again. She left all her friends behind, but she quickly makes new friends.

How many of you have kept your resolutions and how were you able to accomplish this? Please share some of your resolutions with us.
