Hey All,
So as I still work my way through writing my fantasy novel, I just want to say how much I appreciate you guys. It was a really good year for MKULTRA and for everything in general. And despite missing some deadlines (but for good reason), everything is going well. There have been some challenges. First, is that writing a fantasy overwhelmed me at first. That was something that I did not expect. Developing a world upfront is something I haven't faced before. Prior to this, there has been some groundwork. And whether this pays off in the future, well, time will tell. I am hopeful. I think at minimum, it will be good to get my feet wet. Second, Chapter 2 is going okay and I have it written in entirety (with Chapter 3 as well) but there are things that remain in flux. I am going to rewrite a section, some character motivations, and change some of the tone. In the end, the reason I do this is for you guys. Anyways, here is to a new year! And I hope you guys set some goals and go out and accomplish them this year. There really is no time to get started on what you want to do in life so I recommend just doing it today. Writing goals for this year: 1. Finish and have all sections of the Last Traveler released (if that is what it ends up being called... :-p) 2. Start work and gathering information on how to get into traditional publishing. I feel like indie publishing has gone well, but I need to put in my dues and do this for real. I want to develop stories and music, visuals, art, but the base has to be there. If not, do some queries and get into the process to understand it. 3. Love it for what it is, create something that I will love and that people can enjoy with me. 4. Non-writing goal: Continue to work out and get outside as much as I can, work on connecting with the world, hiking, getting up early, enjoying life. Let me know what you guys are up to in 2019! Reading anything? Writing anything? What kind of goals do you have? @author_tssmith (Twitter) -TS
