It's A Goal Post
Feb. 26th, 2016 08:26 pmNope, nothing to do with football, just my last interim post for the year. For those who I've friended recently (hello!), in the middle of April I set three goals for the year and then review them roughly every two months to see how I'm doing. I find it helpful in order to keep myself on track and my flist very kindly provide encouragement, plus at this time of year when I'm starting to look at my goals for next year also make helpful suggestions. So, without further waffle:
Goal 1 - Carry on writing all the things Still going well - Lots of
fan_flashworks plus various other fics. More parts to the Sussex Retirement series - my plan is to complete a full year, so three more to go there; and then the series will be left open for extra parts as they occur. I've just started Watson 1918, and hope to have chapter one to beta by the end of this month. I'm expecting it to end up as about 10k, which is rather longer than my original plan. I'm also intending to begin my Lucas/Adam follow up to Finding A Way Forward next month, so will have enough to occupy myself for the next few months. I shall certainly have a writing goal for my next year, so any suggestions gratefully considered.
Goal 2 - Read more and widely Such an enjoyable goal this year. Still reading all sorts. I had originally planned to ask for a new round of suggestions, but I currently have 11 books in my book box and book shelf (not including the two I have left from this year's suggestions). So this goal will continue as it is and I will begin by reading my way through the 11 which have been recommended to me throughout the year.
Goal 3 - More theatre This was never going to be a difficult goal to achieve. It was suggested by the beautiful
moonlightmead and every time I consider how I'm progressing I think of her, so my success here is dedicated to her memory.
So yes, this should be a successful year and I look forward to my final post in April. As for new goals: Goal 1 - possibly looking for something specific, as well as the general writing I always enjoy; Goal 2 - will be a repeat of this year; Goal 3 - as yet totally undecided. As always, all comments will be read and considered, but I make no promises.
