Journal #37

January 3, 2021 by Deanna Repose Oaks

As the new year starts, I’m reviewing the goals I set during the past year. The only goals I set for myself was to publish 300 writing prompt answers (of which I completed 28) and to stop beating myself up so much so I will write more. Well, I am writing more.

I am making good on not beating myself up for not writing the prompt responses, as 2020 went sideways on everyone. I am also not beating myself up for not finishing the novel I’ve been trying to write forever.

I am celebrating the fact that I am making headway with the journals and writing daily, even if no one sees it.

My goals for 2021 are as follows: finish at least 1 novel (or novella) and get it published and publish at least one book of poetry. I’m also going to reread the Elements of Style.
