Ooooh, short stories are a great idea - I use Reedsy and Submittable to find contests, in case you needed a rec 🫶🏾 My goals between now and March are to just finish the two WIPs I've been working on since last year 😅 I'd love to see your quarterly review!
I'll be working mostly on a YA fantasy novel i'm working on. I'm in the middle of the rough draft at 60k. So I want to finish that and start editing it. I'll also be working on a short story for my substack as I plan to write a few short stories and post them there through-out the year. I write mostly horror and fantasy. Good luck with your goals!
My goal for January is to finish drafting my WIP. 16,667 words left 😅 Fingers crossed 🤞 In February, I want to write an outline to prepare for developmental and line editing. I also want to brainstorm book two in my planned series. In March, I would like to begin developmental editing 😃
What an awesome and ambitious plan you have! I'll be cheering you on from the sidelines! You can do it! 💪 My goal for the first quarter is to just finish the first draft. It'll take 4 months so a little over a quarter. I just hope everything goes well lol
Very excited to see how this whole universe of yours unfolds. It’s very impressive that you can manage to churn out so many videos while also remaining consistent in your writing. Also, just a random question, how do you think a fight between Chase and Sebastian would go?
@@ComicConvict I’m excited to have you along for the journey! A fight between Sebastian and Chase would be fairly even until Sebastian runs out of stamina/energy trying to wear down Chase’s defenses. At that point, I think Chase would win.
I’m very excited about these goals! Esp excited for Anarchist plotting. That series sounds very interesting! It would be fun to do a video on the short story journeyyy. Think I make start of light since there’s a big graded project for school in march and I need a lot of prep for that. I will probably continue trying to finish plotting out the book I want to finish this year first and foremost while plotting on the side any other story I’ve already started. Goal may be to finish plotting as many as I can so after March I can deep dive into writing and be less lost.
Thank you so much! I haven't worked on the series Anarchist belongs to in about 2 years, so it'll be great to revisit that world. I definitely will be doing a video centered around my process of drafting/writing my short story. I wish you well with your goals for the first few months of the year, Ken!
I absolutely cannot wait for The Ivory Crypt! I’m so invested in all of your series, but the Eldenarian Artifacts takes the cake for me. Also, who would you say is more skilled, Sebastian or Chase?
hey, writer here as well. i've divided my year into 2 parts. first 6 and last 6. for the first 6 months, im gonna be finishing and working on a revision of my horror-thriller script entitled Darah & Daging (Malay for Flesh & Blood). i only got the last act to finish so like 85% done already. other than that, im also gonna be finishing up my first ever horror novel titled, LOVESICK. 25% done and im hoping to finish it by the latest June and get it traditionally published. my other works i have arranged it all for late 2025 or in 2026.
Good luck with everything! Script writing can be tough, so great job on nearly finishing one. I wish you well with your future querying process for LOVESICK!
I struggle with drafting and revising on two different projects. I am going to use January for edits and revising, then I'll start drafting again in February.
I’m so stoked for everything you have planned. I feel like I’m a marvel fan waiting for the next movie to release, except that instead of movies, it’s your books lol. Btw, who are your top five favorite characters in the Keyverse?
@@MightOfThePen-h9s Hahaha that was definitely the goal! The Keyverse was 100% inspired by my love of the MCU. My top 5 characters are Chase, Sebastian, Makaela, Iggy, and Princess Noia. I’m curious as to who yours are 👀

Ambitious, but attainable goals. Good stuff. 😊 I’ll start off the year by writing book three and then see where I go from there. Cheers 😊
Thank you, Ian. Good luck with book three!

I really, really loved Gladiator so I’m super hyped for Anarchist! Iggy’s one of my top ten Keyverse characters lol
I'm glad you like him! Took me a while to get his character right, but I'm excited for his arc in Anarchist.

@@ldjwrites Woah that's quite a while but should be so much fun to re-explore. And thank you!
I absolutely cannot wait for The Ivory Crypt! I’m so invested in all of your series, but the Eldenarian Artifacts takes the cake for me. Also, who would you say is more skilled, Sebastian or Chase?
I would have to say Sebastian just because he's older, but the gap isn't that wide.

Cool! My favorites are Chase, Sebastian, Ajax, Oscar, and Victor. Emily and Andre get an honorable mention lol
