Writing goals revisited

It’s half way through the year, and I decided to look at the writing goals I set back in January.  I’ve done some of them–and completely spaced on others.

  • Write one short story (flash or longer) a month.  NOT QUITE.
  • Finish novel and start sending it out.  GETTING THERE.
  • Apply for SFWA associate membership. DONE.
  • Make at least two more SFWA-qualifying sales and then apply for SFWA full membership.  MADE THE SALES, BUT HAVEN’T APPLIED YET.
  • Write / sell more YA short fiction.  DOING IT.
  • Dabble in YA nonfiction. STARTED.
  • Market more aggressively. (IE, polish up / send out back log of stories. Set aside one day a week for marketing.)  NOT SO MUCH.

I’d forgotten all about setting aside a day for marketing. Doh.
