With New Years coming up, I wanted to take some time to
reflect on my year and go over my goals for the upcoming year. 2014 was an amazing year, full of ups and
downs for me. I have to say, though, there were far more ups than there were
downs. When I think about everything
that happened over this last year, I can definitely say that I can see
progress.
In July, my first short story was published by Paranormal
Door Publishing. This was a huge step for me, and changed my life forever. I have been writing for nearly twenty years,
but this was my first step to doing what I love professionally. It was the push I needed to begin preparing
my books for publication as well. Not to
mention, it was the advice of my publisher that had me creating this web site
and posting the web stories.
This year I have learned so much from many different people
all over the world. I have also been very grateful to have worked with some
amazing authors and editors. Social media provided me with a grand source of
information through several groups such as Fiction Writers and Indie Author
Groups. It was through these social groups that I have made many more contacts
and gathered far more information on how to get published and spread the word.
Now that the year is coming to a close, I am anxious to see
what the future holds. I plan to release five books in the coming year. (Knock
on wood.) As well as continue on with my web story and other online
interactions. This year looks to be very promising, and I cannot wait to see it
all come together. I also plan to attend more conventions and meet more
incredible people! 2015 is sure to be an amazing year. I hope all of you stick
around for the ride! It is sure to be a fun one!
Happy New Year!
