Making Writing Plans for the Year Ahead

So 2017 is here but what will it bring? It’s already brought me a nasty cold but I’m pleased to say I seem to be getting over it quite quickly, which makes a big change for me. What I hope it brings is a healthier me (and you) and a stronger back!(I will have to work on all of that)

I’m looking forward also to the start of the Comma Press Short Story course in Newcastle, a Linen Press event in London in March – more of that soon – and of course the final of theĀ  People Book Prize in May. Most of all I’m looking forward to writing a new novel – and I’m now 2,000 words in! I am setting myself the very modest goal of a thousand words a week, fine if I exceed it, not fine if I don’t!

It’s inveitable that we make writing plans at this time of year – if you would like to read my guide and suggestions for making your writing plans then you can read them here at my guest spot on the Linen Press Blog

Happy Writing!
