I have a spreadsheet I use to plan and track my writing on a weekly, monthly, and yearly basis but I find this valuable to see the big picture.
Planning:
- Vetrix, book 6 - I have a good idea of what this story will be. Will probably write in 2023.
- Mystery 6 - I know what the story will be and plan to write in 2023.
- Mystery Short Story
- Other possibilities for 2023:
* Anna Flash Fiction - I have an idea for some short stories centered around the dog in the Vetrix series
* The Most Important Thing 2 - Maybe, but not likely.
Rough draft writing:
- Mystery 5 - I have notes and a start. I want to publish in 2023.
- Mystery Short Story
- Other possibilities for 2021:
* Anna Flash Fiction - I have an idea for some short stories centered around the dog in the Vetrix series
* The Most Important Thing 2 - Maybe, but not likely.
Edit (revise):
- Grim Mansion - I want to have this edited and then I'll rewrite.
- Mystery Short Story
Market (Publish):
- Grim Mansion - I plan to have a professional edit and rewrite before PPWC so I can pitch it.- Something About Mary - My flash fiction will be published in PPWC's anthology, I think in the spring.
- Mystery 5 - Hope to publish in the summer/fall.
- The Most Important Thing - I want to pitch agents but probably want to do an edit first. Probably not this year but we'll see.
Study:
HTTS - I started this in 2017 and returned to it in 2022. I want to finish in 2023.
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 2023, 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.
Planning:
- Vetrix, book 7 - I have a vague idea of what this story will be. Might write in 2023.
- Mystery 7 - I know what the story will be and might write in 2023.
* Anna Flash Fiction - I have an idea for some short stories centered around the dog in the Vetrix series
* The Most Important Thing 2 - Maybe, but not likely.
Rough draft writing:
- Vetrix, book 6 - I don't know if I can publish three books in 2023 but if I do this is an option.
- Santa in Name Only - I have this planned and started. I want to finish.
- Mystery 6 - I don't know if I can publish three books in 2023 but if I do this is an option.
- Vetrix, book 7 - I'd like to get at least the rough draft written.- Mystery 6 - I don't know if I can publish three books in 2023 but if I do this is an option.
- Other possibilities for 2021:
