I'm clearing the decks right now because I'll be starting training for the marathon on January 7th. I'm not sure I'll have the energy or the inclination to write during that time, which means I won't be able to start until after the race on May 4th.
As such, I've basically given myself permission not to write a single word for the next several months. If the spirit moves me and something comes out, so much the better, but I'd just rather not put pressure on myself, you know?
Thankfully, the Creative Writing program I want to take doesn't start until the fall.
I've left (Or placed onhold) my landcomm stuff, I'll use ncis_verse for writing prompt purposes when I can, but I need to get structured with my writing again and spend less time with graphics, and tumblr reblogs and such.
I've been sketching out a series of short stories that I want to work on, plus some fanfic stuff that I keep sticking on the back burner and making excuses for ... I need to just start writing again.
Writing? What is this strange thing of which you speak?
LOL - it's been so long for me, I am not even sure I can do it anymore. The shows that I watch now don't inspire much fanfic (Homeland, Game of Thrones, Almost Human & The Blacklist).

I'm doing a goal of 300,000 words in 2014.

I'll be cheering you on from the sidelines! :)
