2021 Goals

Because every professional needs goals, here are my writing goals for 2021:

These Cursed Waters

• Submit to at least 30 Agents by 31st December*

The Selkie Curse

• A submission-ready draft by 31st May
  • Including: Manuscript, Query Letter, Synopsis
• A revised synopsis for book 2 by 30th June

Bleed For Me

• Do outline review by 31st January
• First draft done by 30th September
• Start the structural edit in December

Other Projects

• Untitled new series #1 book 1 outline by 31st March
• Untitled new series #2 book 1 outline by 30th November

In 2021, I’ll be taking a step back from writing short stories. I will continue to submit what I have, but I have so many ideas for novels that I want to start putting them down.

What are your goals for 2021? How do you plan to achieve them?

*Edited 3/01/2021: Was originally 5 submissions but that was too easy. I’ve changed it to be 5 every 2 months.
