What I Wrote in September 2022

One of the hardest things about being an unpublished writer is not being able to talk about what you’re working on. Okay, I can talk about what I’m working on but I can’t spill too much because I want to save the fun details for the future, when I’m ready to publish. But I’d like share more about what I’m writing, so every month I’ll post an update without giving away any spoilers. So, without further ado, here’s what I wrote in September 2022: Started edits on book two of a dark romance duet There’s a lot of stuff that needs to be fleshed out down the road, but I’m happy with how this one turned out. Wrote draft eight …

2022 Writing Goals

Just like last year, I’m sharing my 2022 writing goals. I only achieved one of the goals I wanted to for 2021, so let’s see if I can do better this year. Get My Book(s) Professionally Edited I have a three book series I’m ready to put out into the world, but first they all need to be edited by professionals. Professionals I must scour the web for, reach out to for prices and availability, then book, usually a few months in advance. This means the first book in my series will almost definitely not be ready for publishing this year. But there’s always 2023. Find a Cover Designer The books in my series need covers.

Reflecting on my 2021 Writing Goals

Last year around this time, I posted my 2021 Writing Goals. Let’s see if I accomplished any of them (spoiler alert: I accomplished ONE). Goal One: Publish a Book Did I?

I finally decided I wanted to self-publish last year, so now I’m gearing up to have the first book in the series I’d like to release edited. Editing takes awhile, and depends on when freelance editors can fit me into their busy schedules. At this point, I think it’s wildly unrealistic for me to aim for publishing a book this year. But watch out, 2023. Goal Two: …

2021 Writing Goals

I’d intended to write this post closer to the 1st, but it’s now the 18th. Whoops. Still, even though I don’t make New Year’s resolutions anymore, I do like to set a few writing goals for myself. So, without further ado, here are my 2021 writing goals. Publish a Book This has been my number one goal since the second I started writing my first book way back in my senior year of high school. I’m 37 now and it hasn’t happened yet but I have a feeling this is my year. Mainly because I have a bunch of books that I’m very happy with and would love to put out in the world. Now it’s a matter of figuring …
