New Year's Resolutions 2015

Ticket Stub's New Year starts right now! It is a fresh start for everyone and I have a couple of goals for Ticket Stub Film Club this year.

Hopefully I can stick to these throughout 2015 and make the blog even better!

1. PLAN AHEAD

December 2014 just goes to show that if you do not plan posts ahead of time, your blog can take a back seat and be forgotten about. I do not want this to happen ever again! I'm going to take the time each month to plan ahead posts and dedicate time to write on the weekend and prep posts during my lunch hours at work.

2. CREATIVE POSTS

Last year I ventured into doing more creative posts such as the Ideas for Film Fancy Dress and the Film Nails in October. I really want to continue doing this as these are the posts I love the most and they are always popular with readers. I've got some fun ideas already for 2015 so watch this space!

3. ATTEND MORE FILMS

I'm very lucky with my Unlimited card for Cineworld, and the local independent cinema being so cheap at £3 per film for up to 25 year olds. Some months I see a lot of films and other times I may only see two. I want to see AT LEAST three films a month so reviews are substantial and there is actually a good choice to make for Film of the Month.

4. VARY POSTS

When I first started Ticket Stub in August 2013, I pushed myself to write posts by using days of the week to publish on: Soundtrack Saturday, Sunday Classic, Trailer Tuesday, and from last year, Throwback Thursday Trivia. It still keeps me motivated each week but I want to vary posts up so it isn't predictable and there are interesting things to research, write and read.

What will your 2015 New Year's Resolutions be?

New Year's Resolutions

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

And with a New Year comes the inevitable resolutions that we nearly all fail to keep. However, here on Ticket Stub, I am determined to keep these resolutions throughout the whole year and beyond.

1. Regular Blogging - an easy and obvious one that many bloggers will promise to do this year. Ticket Stub will have a least 2 posts a week.

2. Reviews - since starting a new job one of the first things I purchased was an Unlimited card for Cineworld. I've been heading to the cinema on a regular basis now and seeing a variety of films. I think the main thing Ticket Stub is lacking is film reviews. A key feature for film blogs and one that Ticket Stub will venture into for 2014.

3. Your Response - I started doing this in 2013 and had some great responses for the Best Film Score of All Time and the Top Ten Dance Sequences in a Film posts. I love discovering anything new to do with film so this will need your input too!

I'm off to watch The Sound of Music on BBC One now - the perfect way to cure the New Year's hangover.

Happy New Year!
