Welcome 2023. I have big plans for you. Happy New Year
to all of you.
I’m excited to see what 2023 has in store for me. 2022
was super in many ways. I had four books released last year and I signed
contracts for a few more. I’m hoping this year will be even better.
Its time for the first IWSG of the new year. I thank Alex J Cavanaugh for starting IWSG and providing us writers with a platform and a place
to hang out online. A man of many talents, a warm and extremely helpful human,
Alex is a rockstar in many ways. He has authored some amazing bestsellers: CassaStar, CassaStorm, CassaFire and Dragon of the
Stars. He has also been instrumental in building the wonderful IWSG website.
The awesome co-hosts for the January 4 posting of the
IWSG are Jemima Pett, Debs Carey, Kim Lajevardi, Sarah Foster, Natalie Aquirre
and T. Powell Coltrin.
January 4 question - Do you have a word
of the year? Is there one word that sums up what you need to work on or change
in the coming year? For instance, in 2021 my word of the year was Finish. I was
determined to finished my first draft by the end of the year. In 2022, my word
of the year was Ease. I want to get my process, systems, finances, and routines
where life flows with ease and less chaos. What is your word for 2023? Why?
I have two words for 2023. Conquer and Explore.
Conquer my fears. And Explore new terrain, both personally and professionally.
I already put the process for both in motion, in the last month of last year. Looking
forward to seeing where this takes me.
What about you all? What’s your word for 2023. Or like
me do you have two words?
