<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Each year I set goals for myself and then evaluate how well I’ve done to meet them. This right here is the evaluation part… it’s always much more difficult than the bit where I actual set the goals LOL<\/p>\n
I totally forgot I was going to do this. Which, honestly, mostly means I need to ‘Check current goals’ into my planner at regular intervals. I’ve done this so hopefully I won’t miss goals this year because I’ve just totally forgotten about them.<\/p>\n
Alas, I made zero progress on this. In fact, the Post-it notes detailing the scenes I have written are starting to lose their ability to stick to things, which cannot possibly be a good sign.<\/p>\n
Also didn’t do this. Honestly, I didn’t write a single new word of fiction in 2019 I don’t think…<\/p>\n
These Hollow Hearts<\/em><\/a> by Em Shotwell hit the shelves in March 2019. Yay!<\/p>\n Lesser Gods Looking For Love<\/em><\/a> by Wendy Sparrow hit the shelves in May 2019. Whoot!<\/p>\n Destiny’s Dark Light<\/em><\/a> by Sara Dobie Bauer hit the shelves in October 2019. Yay!<\/p>\n Haunted<\/em><\/a>, edited by Trysh Thompson, was released on September 13, 2019. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Concrete, measurable goals I don’t have… but I do have a vague idea of what the next three to five years will hold, and that’s not nothing.<\/p>\n Well… I opened up submissions but then I had to cancel the anthology. Mostly, I think that was my fault — I didn’t promote the submissions as well as I should have, and because of that and the rather niche nature of the subject of the anthology, I didn’t receive enough high-quality submissions to move ahead with this one.<\/p>\n I feel pretty guilty about this, because some people did submit some great stories, but because of my time management failure they weren’t able to find a home with me. I hope they found homes elsewhere though.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Also, in addition to those goals we also published INKomplete: The Total Tattoo Studio<\/em><\/a> by Mara Malins in December 2019.<\/p>\n I also opened up a Patreon<\/a> that includes all of my currently available short fiction. So far that has mostly just sat and collected dust… but it’s there. So that must count for something LOL<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So, though I didn’t hit all of my goals, I was far from idle in 2019. When I set my goals for this year, however, I’m going to have to keep in mind that there are only twenty-four hours in a day, and I need to spend some of them sleeping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Each year I set goals for myself and then evaluate how well I’ve done to meet them.
