This will be my last post of 2012. Writing wise I
had a good year. I wrote a lot. The query process taught me several useful lessons
which I hope to incorporate in my next lot of books. I took part in a few blogfests, made
lots of blog buddies. I learnt a lot from the online writing community. And
hopefully I was able to share something useful.
Forgot to tell you all that I won loads of books;
the hard copies as well as the ecopies.
I even managed to read quite a few of them.
Next year I want to pursue my goal of publishing
more seriously. I want to think of the other options available to writers. To
be honest, I need to spend some time thinking of these options. I have decided
to talk with other writers and find both the pros and cons of these options.
Can you believe it, I did not end up on Santa’s Elf
Pete’s Nice person list. Not one of my dear writer friends nominated me. Sigh.
I hoped atleast one person would put my name there. Well, I will try hard to be
on that list next year.
I plan to catch up with my reading in the next few days. I will ofcourse be writing. What are your holiday plans? Reading? Writing? Travelling?
Wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
See you all in the first week of January 2013.
Hope next year is YOUR year!

ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Rachna. I did crit partners for my list. If I hadn't felt I needed to do crit partners, you would have been on my list. Merry Christmas. I have one commitment (I promised the person last night) for Christmas Eve then I'm breaking for two weeks! Yippeeeee.

Congratulations on winning all those books!

Happy New Year, Rachna. Hope 2013 is your big year for getting published. It sounds like you've accomplished a lot this year toward that goal. It's just a matter of time, because you're a good writer and you are focused.
ReplyDeleteMy goals for the coming year are to enter some contests (poetry), write some articles, and to get a draft finished of Book Two in my series. And, of course, I'm hoping to get Book One picked up by a publisher. Cross fingers, cross fingers. Toes, too!
Hope you had a wonderful holiday! Happy New Year!
