New Years Resolution to Write like a Crazy Person who Plans to Write A Lot

For those of you who have read my book, Brenden Swift and the Vulgren's Curse, and are dying to know what happens next, I've made a New Years resolution.  For those of you who also write, I encourage you to do the same.  What is the resolution?

To write 750 words a day, everyday (or at least 5 days a week) and to complete and publish 2 books by this time next year.  

A lofty goal?  Maybe.  Doable?  Absolutely.  750 words a day equals a completed manuscript in under 4 months!  My first book was 71,000 words.  AT 750 words a day, I could have written the book in 95 days.  That's 3 months people!  2 books a year?  NO PROBLEM.

Now, to the question that burns in my brain.  What book do I write?

I'm trying to decide between Brenden Swift, Book 2, and the beginning of a new modern day series that follows the life of a very special girl.  We'll call her Mallory for now, but that's all you get to know for now...

Maybe I'll write one book for each series, maybe I'll write 2 more books in the Brenden Swift Series.  Thoughts?  Opinions?  Let me know!
Joe
