Do you have a list of favorite books you read this year? I know I do. Out of the 56 books I read in 2019, only 6 stick out in my mind. As we said good bye to 2019 yesterday, I want to share my favorites with you today. Keep in mind that these books may have been published prior to 2019, but I read them in 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elizabethkelly.ca\/rosalie-undone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Rosalie Undone by Elizabeth Kelly<\/a><ul><li>By far my favorite this year. I love Kelly&#8217;s work and her Shifter Series speaks to me. I fell in love with Rosalie. She&#8217;s the best. And the sex scenes were drool-worthy. Turn the fan on while reading this one. I&#8217;d start with the first in the series though, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elizabethkelly.ca\/willow-and-the-wolf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Willow and the Wolf<\/a>.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/books2read.com\/u\/mv2qeV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Pyro, Pyro, Burning Bright by Miri Stone<\/a><ul><li>This debut author has outdone herself.

S. Joyce<\/a><ul><li>I love Joyce&#8217;s work. And I have a soft spot for Vyr. Something about him speaks to me on a spiritual level, so I was delighted she published another book featuring this dragon shifter.\u00a0This novella took an emotional turn that I was sure would not end in a HEA, but I was wrong.

I like calling them goals instead of resolutions. The word &#8216;goals&#8217; sounds approachable and realistic. &#8216;Resolutions&#8217; makes me think of reinventing something and I don&#8217;t want to reinvent myself. I want to improve myself.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> So, I want to share with you my goals as a writer for 2020.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Write 500 words a day<ul><li>500 words is a small commitment for a writer. Often, when I sit down to write, I will write more than 500 words. So, I expect to get more than 500 a day, but on the days when everything is hard and I&#8217;m so drained I don&#8217;t even shower, 500 words will be doable.<\/li><li>Plus, 500 words a day is 3,500 words a week, 15,000 words a month (30 day month), and 183,000 words this year (it&#8217;s a leap year, so we have an extra day).<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>One blog post a week<ul><li>This one will be one of the hardest goal to obtain in my option, but I&#8217;m going to give it all I&#8217;ve got. That&#8217;s 52 posts this year. This is post number one. One down, fifty-one to go.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Read One eBook a month<ul><li>My eBook TBR list is hella long. This includes all the books I&#8217;ve already purchased. So, 12 eBooks to read this year.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Read one paperback a month<ul><li>I have many physical paperback books on my shelves at home that are also on my TBR list. I have moved away from reading paperback books and this goal is just what I need to get back into it.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Read One writing craft\/business book a month <ul><li>This goal is a way to further educate me on my craft. I don&#8217;t think I will ever be at a point where I know everything, and that is the mentality that will keep me going. Always learning, always growing.<\/li><li>This goal will not be counted toward the eBook and paperback goals which give me a total goal of 36 books to read in 2020.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Have 1st draft finished by March 31st<ul><li>I have a good chunk of my novel completed and a fleshed-out outline. I just need to finish the draft. If I write 500 words a day until March 31st, I&#8217;ll have 45,500 additional words in my draft. Of course, this is the latest date for my draft to be completed. Here&#8217;s to finishing early.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Have the book edited and ready to publish July 1st<ul><li>Don&#8217;t laugh! If I finish the draft by March 31st, I&#8217;ll have 3 months finish it up to be at a point to be publishable. I know this is a lofty goal and even if this one doesn&#8217;t happen by July 1st, it will happen by the end of the year. This one will be more of a soft goal.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Go to RAGT<ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/readerauthorgettogether.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Reader and Author Get Together<\/a>. This is a small convention put together by <a href=\"https:\/\/lorifoster.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Lori Foster<\/a>. I&#8217;ve been once and want to go again.  My sister, my mom, and my sister-in-law have plans to go again this year (or we do now!). <\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.garomancewriters.org\/moonlight-and-magnolias\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Moonlight and Magnolias Conference <\/a>(maybe not now&#8230; Thanks RWA. \u2639\ufe0f\ud83d\ude20)<ul><li>This is a conference put on by the Georgia Romance Writers which is a chapter of the Romance Writers of America which seems to be currently imploding. This conference is a great place to take writing workshops and meet new people. But I will have to wait to see what will happen with RWA and GRW over the next few months.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>There you have it. I have a good mix of big and small goals. I will take each goal one day at a time. And I have this post here as a reminder of where I want to go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any comments or advice on achieving my goals, please comment below.
