Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

May this year be your best yet, full of many successes and happy memories!

It will be hard to beat 2015 for me – the year I became a full-time author! But I have some big goals for this year, and I’m excited to see what comes to pass.

2015 goals:

• Go full-time ~ Check! February 13 was the day I closed my business.
• Publish 6+ novels ~ I published 12, plus a short story collection.
• Get to 3-5k words a day ~ I made it most days. 845,867 fiction words for the year.
• Hit the top 100 free list on Amazon ~ Made it at least half a dozen times.
• Get a Bookbub feature ~ I did, and look forward to my upcoming feature!
• All novel-length titles into paperback ~ I got quite a few into paperback, not all.
• Regular blogging ~ Actually, ended up deciding to mostly give it up, aside from book news.
• Pen name for new serial ~ Started a new series under my own name instead.
• Audiobooks ~ I did one. Haven’t found it worth my time at this point.

2016 goals:

• Continue writing 3k+ words a day.
• Publish 12 (or more!) novels again. (See my planned books.)
• Continue putting works into paperback.
• Hit the Amazon top 100 paid list.
• Hire out for covers instead of making my own. (Already started!)
• Organize my mailing list.
• Hit a major bestseller list.
• Read more books.
• More will undoubtedly come…

Happy New Year… and happy reading!
