2022 Goals

I have a spreadsheet I use to plan and track my writing on a weekly, monthly, and yearly basis. I'm putting my yearly goals here because I learned last year that having information in more than one location is quite valuable.


Planning:

- Rex (Vetrix, book 6) - I brainstormed the idea during Nano and now need to plan it out and write in 2022.
- Prank on Santa Clause Story - I would like to write this story this year. We'll see if it makes my priority list.
- Mystery 5 - I know what the story will be and plan to write early in the year.
- Mystery 6 - I know what the story will be and plan to write in 2022.
- The Most Important Thing 2 - Maybe, but not likely.

- Other possibilities for 2020:
* Vetrix, book 7
* Anna Flash Fiction - I have an idea for some short stories centered around the dog in the Vetrix series


Rough draft writing:

- Mystery 5 - I brainstormed some ideas during NaNo. I want to publish in 2022.
- Mystery 6 - I don't know if I can publish three mysteries in one year but I already have an idea of what I want this story to be.
- Prank on Santa Clause Story - I want to write this through HTTS, if I find the time.
- The Most Important Thing 2 - Maybe, but not likely.

- Other possibilities for 2021:

* Anna Flash Fiction - I have an idea for some short stories centered around the dog in the Vetrix series


Edit (revise):

- Mystery 4 - To publish in the spring.
- Mystery 5 - To publish in the fall.
- The Most Important Thing - I don't know when I will get back to this story.
- MG Horror Story - I'm close and hope to finish this in January.
- Rex (Vetrix 5) - I'm not sure when I want to publish but I would like to get the story finished in 2022.
- Prank on Santa Clause Story - Maybe. I'm getting closer to making this a priority.

Market (Publish):

- Mystery 4 - Hope to publish in the spring
- Mystery 5 - Hope to publish in the fall
- MG Horror Story - My goal is to have this ready to pitch at PPWC.
- A World Amongst - I don't know what I want to do with this story yet.
- Rex (Vetrix 5) - I haven't decided when I want to publish. This year or wait and publish books 5, 6, and 7 close together?
- The Most Important Thing - I want to start pitching to agents by the end of the year. Not sure yet when I will fit in the final revision.
- Christmas Parade Miracle - I think I want to publish this short story and market it to churches, addiction recovery groups, etc.
- G.R.I.T. - I have a short series of flash fiction Grim Reaper in Training stories. I would like to publish as an e-book, if I find the time.


Study:

HTTS - I started this in 2017. I have a Christmas story I want to write, which I hope to shop to an agent.



Mom's Books:

- Fairies. I need to sort through manuscripts, read, then select one and finish.
- The Place Between. I need to sort through manuscripts, read, then select one and finish.

I would like to publish both books in 2022, if possible.

- Sort through Mom's other writings to determine what exists and what can be published and how. I'm sure once I tackle this it will become several goals.
