I have added a new page to my website, where I have gathered the videos of my author readings over the past few years. A wonderful friend gave me this idea recently, and when I heard the advice, I quite literally did this
Why I had never thought of that before was beyond me? Well, now I have rectified that. You can click here to go to the Author Reading page or click on the Works link in the menu above and choose “Author Readings.”
Happy Viewing! :*
As 2014 comes to an end, I found myself thinking about the goals I set for myself for this year, and I’d like to share what I’ve learned with all of you since my readers have been instrumental in helping me achieve my goals.
This was a goal I managed to meet and exceed in 2014.
Here is the breakdown:
All together, I have written 397,000 words in 2014. Wow!
I can’t tell you how happy I am to see that number, especially when there are times when I doubt that I’m making any progress. After looking back, I realize I have, and that just feels amazing!
This was another goal that was difficult because I had so many different social media sites–Facebook, Twitter, Goodreads, Tumblr, and Google+. It had become extremely overwhelming. So here is what I did to meet this goal:
This is a goal that I could not meet on my own. Dreamspinner, my publisher, selects books for these markets based on sales. So though I set this as a goal, it wasn’t up to me to be able to meet it. Only readers like you could determine if I met this goal, and you know what? I did!
Thank you to all you wonderful readers who made it possible to meet this goal!
Goal #4–Actively Maintain My Blog
This is a goal that I, unfortunately, did not meet. 🙁
In fact, I have hardly kept up with my blog for this entire year. I could cite may reasons as to why I have neglected my blog, but they would only be excuses. Instead, I will definitely rectify this in 2015.
Overall, after looking at this year in review, I think 2014 has been a success, and I’m extremely pleased with what I have accomplished. Still, I don’t plan to rest on my laurels in 2015. I’m planning my goals for next year right now, which I will share with you all in a future post.
I hope you will join me. 🙂
So what were your goals for 2014? Did you achieve all you wanted to? What was your greatest accomplishment this year? I’d love to hear from you.
I’m so excited to have J.P. Barnaby here today, revealing the cover of her latest–a truly personal and heartwarming story. I have known J.P. for almost three years now, and I count myself lucky to have her as a friend. As a friend, I am aware of the heartbreaking tale of her daughter and how that story inspired her latest release, A Heart for Robbie. This story is definitely a must-buy and after reading the blurb and taking a gander at the cover, I’m sure you will agree!
Waiting for someone else’s child to die so yours can live is the worst kind of Hell.
Celebrated Young Adult author Julian Holmes pits the heroic characters in his Black Heart series against all different kinds of monsters. But when a critical heart defect threatens his son’s life, he finds he has no champion. No amount of books, classes, or practice can prepare Julian for the fight to save his beautiful son’s life.
Suddenly there are hospitals, transplant lists, and the nightmare of insurance red tape to navigate. In the midst of his trouble, Julian meets Simon Phelps, the insurance coordinator for Robbie’s case. Simon lives so deep in the closet he might never find his way out, but he dreams of exactly what Julian has. Then one night, drunken need and desperation brings them together, and a new fight begins.
