Growing up new years resolutions were my mothers favorite things. We would all sit down and write our goals for the year. I don't remember all of the categories that we had goals in, I think there was Spiritual, Financial, Mental but in total I believe there were 5. I just don't remember the others.
I am not a good goal maker. I got the Author's accountability planner 2023. And I'm planning on using it to it's full extent this year. That is my goal. To keep myself motivated. My kids are all getting a bit older and I have found a bit of time for myself when my youngest goes to sleep. So I'm hoping I can commit to writing at least a few nights a week as long as I don't spend it dicking off. Which let's be honest. That is super easy to do.
What am I working on? Well I think I have mentioned in one of my posts about the series I have been working on since like 1999, 2000ish. It has come such a long way. Started out as one book that was forever long. I had a huge love for Ancient Egypt and that is how it started but it has warped heavily from that. The only similarities to that era is the gold and gods. But that is about it. So you know. Good start I think.
It has now become a huge series with intertwining multiple people. In summary it really it just following one family line through catastrophic magical events. I wouldn't call it sci-fi as there is magic not science. But it does involve time/space/world traveling so that may lean into sci-fi. My universe is massive and leads room for more than just what I have planned, but that doesn't mean I'll go there. I have written and re-written 6 out of the 10 that I plan. And honestly at this point I don't know if I ever see myself having enough gumption to get it out of my own little bubble.
Part of me is ready to share my world. Because I think it is awesome. But I don't know if other people will. It has dark moments, and good ones. It's not 'romance' or erotica. But love is apart of because well, I feel like love is important for someone to continue to grow as a person.
So my plan for this year. Submit to more agencies/publishers. Keep writing. And stop freaking editing until someone besides myself reads it. That's my goals for 2023. We'll see how well I can do.
Until Next time.
