Writing Goals
What are yours?
Stories get published. Books wind up on shelves in cozy bookshops. Films even get made from our literature. But it all has to start somewhere. Your favorite novel started as a goal the writer had. I’ve been a fan of goal setting for a long time, and I believe it’s never too late to do so. That’s why here in the last quarter of 2024, I ask what your goal is. After all, how can you know who you want to be, if you’re afraid to say it? Do you want to write a story? Go back to school? Find an agent? Get the big book contract? Or maybe your goal is more life oriented: pay off debt, find a better job, start a new wellness program?
I’ll go first. I’m revising my fourth book now. I have until sometime next year to finish, but I hope to be just about done with it by February.
Drop your goal, big or small in the comments! Thanks…
Get my 2nd manuscript into submission shape and find a good place to submit it.
Pretty late to this, sorry. I guess one goal would be to keep up with newsletters! But my main goal now is to find an agent. I'm closer than ever before, and I know the journey by no means stops once I'm at that step but at least I'll have someone in my corner to pursue further goals
