Goodbye, 2017

 

Well, here we are, at the end of another year. Can you believe how time flies? I really can’t. Time is such a precious thing, isn’t it?

I think I’m getting sentimental now.

2017 Highlights

• Joining YDubs (by the way, they are opening for enrollment again soon!)
• Starting this blog
• Finishing my first full novel
• Roleplaying with Madi and Josie
• Meeting Madi!
• The Medieval Fair 2017
• Annie Jr.

So many more awesome things happened in 2017, but these are the ones that stick out in my mind the most.

2018 Goals

• Read 150 books
• Finish the three main projects I’m working on
• Look into starting an email list
• Improve my blogging skills
• Drink. more. water. (I tell myself this EVERY SINGLE YEAR. And does it ever happen? Nope.)
• Relaunch the (blank) (blank)
• Launch the (blank) (blank) (blank) shop.

I have more goals… but those I’ll keep to myself. 😉

December Highlights:

• Handing out Blessing Bags to the homeless on Christmas Day

Um. So, that’s really it for December, because it took up most of my month….

Fangirl Moments:

• Re-watched the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies (Ahhhh I love them so much <3)

December Goals Recap:

•  Make 250 Blessing Bags/Stockings for the homeless people in our town. Sadly, no. We made it to about 120.
• Read 10 Free Reads for school. Ehhhh… maybe? *counts* Hans Brinker…. The Open Gate… that Hungarian book and its sequel… Philomena…. um…. I don’t think I quite made it. *sigh*
• Finish half of the Starless outline. And… for Arendale’s sake… don’t come up with anymore evil ideas… for her, at least, poor girl. Yep! Actually, the whole outline is done, I start writing tomorrow!
• Start fleshing out the idea for the Starless sequel. Another one that I did!

January Goals:

• Write 10k of Starless.
• Write 10k of Forgotten.
• Make a blog button and finish some pages that I’m working on. (speaking of that, did you see my new pages?)
• Read 10 free reads.
• Get Alpha readers…?

Happy, happy New Year, everyone!

What are your goals for 2018? How did 2017 go for you?
