A letter solidifying my New Year's Resolution |
Dear Me, As the dawn of 2024 unfurls its vibrant hues, I find myself perched on the cusp of endless possibilities. This letter, a tapestry of aspirations and dreams, is a beacon to guide me through the year's labyrinth of creativity and growth. 1. Completing "The Whispering Shadows" by June 1st: This story, a lingering specter in my mind, shall finally find its voice. Aiming for a chapter every two weeks, I will weave this tale of mystery and magic, completing its 50,000 words with diligence and passion. 2. Diving into Historical Fiction: By September, I plan to embark on a new literary voyage. Crafting a short story of about 10,000 words set in the Renaissance period, I aspire to blend historical accuracy with a dash of imaginative flair, exploring a world both familiar and fantastical. 3. Reading and Reviewing 20 Books: To kindle the flames of inspiration, I shall immerse myself in the works of others. By reading and thoughtfully reviewing 20 books, with an emphasis on genres I seldom explore, I aim to broaden my horizons and refine my craft. 4. Steps Toward Self-Publishing: By December, the groundwork for self-publishing "The Whispering Shadows" will be laid. This includes researching publishers, understanding marketing strategies, and beginning the editing process, setting the stage for its eventual release. 5. Weekly Writing Reflections: Every Sunday, I will spend an hour reflecting on my writing progress. This practice will not only track my growth but also serve as a wellspring of self-awareness and motivation. Remember, these goals are not just milestones but stepping stones towards our greater journey in the literary world. Every word you write, every story you weave, is a testament to your creative spirit. Embrace the challenges, relish the triumphs, and let your imagination soar. With determination and a dash of daring, let's make 2024 a year of unforgettable stories and personal growth. Yours truly, WriterRick |
