At the beginning of this month, I pledged to:
- Read 1 book
- Write 2 short stories
- Write 3 poems
- Do 4 submissions
- Write 5 blog posts
How did I do with that?
I read more than one book. In fact I read two whole books (although one was very short). I also finished the one I’d been reading before May, I gave up on one book part of the way through because I wasn’t enjoying it, and I started another that’s interesting but heavy-going. Not bad!
I wrote one short story and two poems.
If you count two submissions to the same competition separately, then I managed four submissions.
And this is my fifth blog post this month.
I also did quite a lot of work on my WIP. And I gave my first ever author talk, which went well and led to a lively discussion. So altogether I’m very pleased with what I’ve achieved this month. I think, in general, goals are good, as long as they are realistic and you allow yourself some leeway.
Next month I will mostly be preparing for an exciting time ahead.

Congratulations on a very successful month, Miriam!
Pretty impressive result. Attempted to update my reviews in the May Mayhem, but fell well short of the target. Did manage to get halfway through latest revision of novel,
well done you!
Congratulations Miriam on achieving your writing goals for the month. And your first book talk too. Well done! x
Well done on achieving so much! And especially on your first talk – I haven’t plucked up the courage to do that yet!
Always good to reach your goals. Well done 🙂
