Here are my goals for 2020:
- Write some poems and at least one short story (I haven’t written a short story since 2017!)
- Post in my WordPress blog at least once per week
- Try to write one book review per week
- Respond to review requests
- Write up review of A Granted Wish by Lily Michaels
- Try to do a photography outing once a month with my mum
- Work on the second volume of my family recipe book
- Work on and post circle journals to the next person in the circle (I currently have six to work on)
- Clean out and repack my storage room
- Photograph all my memorabilia so I have digital copies (just in case!)
- Transfer my digital photos from Amazon Drive to OneDrive and use Adobe Bridge to add sufficient metadata to make them searchable
- Work on my blog books (so far I have one completed copy of 2001 – I need two completed copies for each year 2001 – 2019)
