GOODBYE TO THE OLD, HELLO TO THE NEW

Writing

So, everyone is doing their end-of-year posts. I don't usually do these, but it's been a rough year and I'm proud of the things I managed to accomplish despite that.

In 2021, I:

Sold 13 new poems; saw 7 of those published

Sold 4 new stories; saw 3 of those published

Pitched, sold, & delivered a story for a WFH RPG anthology; saw it published

Pitched, scripted, sold, & delivered a comic book story

Pitched, sold, & delivered a WFH RPG adventure

Pitched & sold a WFH novel

(I can't talk about those last two yet, but will of course share more when I can.)

That's a lot for me, especially considering that the nerve issues in my neck I've been dealing with since I was rear-ended in 2019 make it so I can't spend a lot of time at the keyboard.

Things I am looking forward to in 2022:

Finishing & delivering the WFH novel

Writing a solicited story for a WFH anthology

More RPG work? More WFH work? Nothing firm in those areas yet, but some good possibilities, so we'll see.

Also, I got this really nice tweet about my poem, "The Things We Pass Down," in the Wanderers chapbook. (Note that "moved" in the tweet should be "woven." Thanks, autocorrect! LOL)



Everything Else

I hope you all had a wonderful [insert your preferred winter holiday/break], that you have a very happy New Year's Eve/Day, and that 2022 makes up for how crappy 2020 & 2021 have been for most of us.
