1. Finish "Psychestar".
2. Finish one story every month. See list below.
3. When I've finished 12 stories, collect them into another anthology:
"Earthmen and Other Aliens", "Dreams of Earth", or some other title.
January: "Prelude" makes 5 stories eligible for anthology.
February: "The Agency" and "Six out of Five" make 7.
March: "One Life, with Boomerangs" makes 8.
4. Add one root to the T́uliǹgrai Etymological Dictionary every day.
By the end of 2773, that should give us 938 roots total, and around 14,568 words.
5. Other stuff: Periodic Table, sheet music for songs, more poems, maps.
Get that stuff onto the web site!
