So then, a brand new year! A couple of points to start with, before we crack on.

Well, this is technically Book VI for me - as there have been 5 predecessors. Tonight, as you will find out, VII starts. Which probably means that this is the beginning of the end for Day Dedication. What I'd like, ideally, is a good 18 months of blogs, and then a book deal! But thats not going to happen - I'd like to see in 2011 with Day Dedication but I may just run out of ideas! Until then though, I'm afraid you're stuck with me!

Second thing - this is a brand new year, so this does involve a completely fresh start. In fact, its a new decade! So we shall start as we mean to go on. Everyone has a fresh page. And I plan to start afresh with everyone - no petty grudges. So, Sophie Willer, answer your MSN!

Last bit before we can FINALLY crack on! My New Years resolutions. I figured if I posted them on here, I can't go back. So here goes nothing. The first one is to stop biting my nails. Its been a 16 year habit, and it needs to finish. If you see me biting, moan and groan at me till I stop. Please?

We've also got what I've called my hygiene pact. Okay, I'm a bloke. I don't do everything hygienically. So, this year, I'm going to wash my hands whenever I fancy, make sure I have antibacterial gel wherever I go etc etc. Its my calming female influence!

And so, linking everything together, is today's Day Dedicatee - the number 7. Yes, Book VII starts tonight. I remember writing the last 5, and writing in the perspective of actually thinking I may get published. So this one is a lot more personal, but you're welcome to read it. It's a Dream Diary, of which I record anything I dream about - no matter what it is.

To start with, it is gonna be just what I dream about at night, but over the year, if I decide I suddenly have a massive aspiration, that goes down as well. A bit confusing, but it will all make sense in the end.

So, a new year, a fresh start, a new book and 3 NYR's. Fun! Lets start as we mean to go on!

The number SEVEN, you are the Day Dedicatee for Friday 1st January 2010.

(P.S. I'm 18 next year, how weird is that?!)
