2002 and 2023 goals

2022 was a trashfire of stress...and it still turned out pretty well. I wrote books I'm really proud of, and I got a few bestseller flags, and I did some art I love and worked on a project of my heart. It was a rollercoaster. I'm not sad to see the year end, but I grew and loved and created and it was worth it.

Some of my proudest highlights: The Dragon Prince's Secret and The Dragon Prince's Magic. Dragon's Instinct. The Flamingo's Fated Mate. Januraven. Junicorn. Hare Today. Gnome Sweet Gnome. First Comes Love trilogy and an impulsive free Christmas story.

Goals for 2023:

Man, I trimmed this list a BUNCH, and it still looks like a lot.

Write and publish The Dragon Prince's Betrayal

It seems to me like you had a fantastically productive year, despite 2022 being a total trash fire!

Congratulations, and may 2023 be an upswing <3

It definitely was a Year. Thank you!! I am optimistic!

Epic work in 2022!!! I hope 2023 is much less stressful for you (and all of us) and best of luck with all your cool goals! <3

Thank you on all counts! <3

*cheers you on* You are AMAZING, never forget that. :D

Thank you! And back at you!!

You've done an amazing amount of things! There are times I wondered if you ever slept or recreated.

I swear that I sleep! Rather a lot, even! And does it count as recreating if the work is fun?? :P

That's an incredibly productive year, and sounds like an exciting 2023 plan! :D

Thank you! I am honestly looking forward to 2023...and I don't think it's entirely because of what a disaster 2022 was.

That is a lot of books.

It never feels like that many until I look back at the end of the year!! <3

Yeah, I feel that way when I tally up other things I've done.
