My 5 Writing Goals for 2021: An Update

 

At the beginning of the year, I set out 5 writing goals for 2021. We're now just over halfway through the year so I thought I'd do an update on my to-do list.

At the beginning of the year, my list looked like this:

So, how I have got on so far?

I've managed to cross off numbers 1-3 on the list, and while I'm working on number 4 at the moment, it did need a little tweak. Because what was supposed to be Book 14 is now Book 15, due to the fact I unexpectedly published the Beginner's Guide Book 3 at the beginning on the month.

I'd been working on A Beginner's Guide To Family Life on and off for a few years, but I could never get it right. But I caught the bug again while working on the paperback of A Beginner's Guide To Salad and decided to give Draft 6 a go - and it gelled this time. I loved working on the book and couldn't wait for other people to read it, so I got it edited and published it.

Before publishing the third book in the series, I wanted to publish the paperback of A Beginner's Guide To Saying I Do, so while I was wondering if I could actually complete all the tasks on my list back in January, I actually completed two additional tasks!

I've got two more goals on my list: 

Plan Book 15

Take part in Nanowrimo 2021

I'm planning Book 15 now, and this is the book I'll be working on during Nano, so I'm on track to cross off all my goals by the end of the year.
