I'm ashamed to admit it, but I haven't submitted a manuscript in ages. So long, in fact, that I can't even remember when. I've been writing, but never finishing anything. So this is my year to complete work and get it on the market. My goal is 50 submissions. Do I have that many stories ready to go out? Not at all. I might have half a dozen, though, that I feel comfortable polishing for publication. Beyond that, dozens and dozens of ideas crying to be written into stories. So I'm not worried about my lack of material. I do have to get going, though. It's February and all I've done is polish up one story. Looks like I need to get to work!
50 submissions
Did you promise yourself 50 submissions or 50 different stories submitted? It's easy to find 5 markets so you only really need ten stories.
It's a bit early in the year to start weaseling your resolutions but there are some things that even I don't procrastinate about.

I actually did intend to
I actually did intend to mean 50 submissions. For me, that's pretty optomistic, so we'll see how it goes!
