2021 Goals Musings

2021 Goals – End of year review

  • by

Because every professional needs goals, I set out some writing goals for 2021 in December 2020. Now that I’m saying hello to 2022, it’s time to check in.

These Cursed Waters

  • Submit to at least 30 Agents by 31st December – So, I didn’t hit this goal, but something better happened! These Cursed Waters was shortlisted for the 2021 Text Prize, and I was the inaugural recipient of the Steph Bowe Mentorship. I have been working with the fabulous Amie Kaufman on revising and developing the manuscript to bring it to the next level.

The Selkie Curse

  • A submission-ready draft by 31st May
    • Including: Manuscript, Query Letter, Synopsis – Structural edits are done! I have just been waiting on some feedback from my beta readers. A submission ready draft will be done in 2022.
  • A revised synopsis for book 2 by 30th June – Done!

Bleed For Me

  • Do outline review by 31st January – Done!
  • First draft done by 30th September – Done!
  • Start the structural edit in December – In progress.

Other Projects

  • Untitled new series #1 book 1 outline by 31st March – Done!
  • Untitled new series #2 book 1 outline by 30th November – Done! The working title for this manuscript is Counting Stars

Other Activities (because sometimes you can’t predict the cool opportunities that will come up)

  • I have written 4 out of my 5 blog posts on editing TSC as part of my outreach for the Anne Edgeworth Fellowship – One left to go!
  • On June 14, I achieved one year of writing 500 words a day. It’s well and truly a part of my daily routine

2021 was a successful writing year for me and I’m looking forward to 2022!
