2021 is officially underway. For me, it’s been a busy month—largely due to taking on more than I could handle this month.
On top of all the little projects I wanted to get done, I also had my reading challenge this month, which I ended up not doing a whole lot for. So far I’m only about twenty pages into Seanan McGuire’s Every Heart a Doorway. I’m making more of an effort to block out time specifically for reading in February.
I mentioned earlier in the month I had two side projects for the blog here. One of those is updating my short stories page. So far I haven’t had a lot of success on that, in part due to the fact I’d like to move away from plain links. I’m hoping to eventually get thumbnail images set up in a sort of ‘gallery’. I’m setting that as my main blog focus throughout February as I know several of the shorts don’t currently have cover images.
Writing wise I didn’t manage to finish anything. I spent a little bit of time bouncing around on projects. I did however, manage to keep track of my wordcount. As of writing this post (on 1/27) I’ve written a total of 44,260 words.
With the month closing out I’m looking towards February. I’ve got a couple of projects in mind that I want to get finished up next month. Hopefully this cuts down on the massive list of forever-unfinished pieces I have so far.
How was your month? What plans do you have for February?

44,260 is impressive, especially for such a depressing month after a depressing year! I seem to keep having bursts of incredibly productive days writing and reading , and then some days where I feel like I haven’t gotten anything done. Still, excited to see your updates in the coming year!

Thanks! I’m right there with you on those waves of productivity. Here’s to hoping the coming year turns some of this negativity around for both of us!
