Now that we’re a week into the new year, it seemed like a
good time to talk about my plans for 2020. My writing plans, that is.
January is off to a good start with the release of Moved By You, my third Nice Ink book,
but we’ll get to that in a minute.
Like so many people, I made some resolutions in connection
with my writing. First, I want to be better about my blog. It’s been going for
a while, and in the last couple of years, I haven’t posted as often as I’ve
wanted to. My goal is at least two posts a month or one every other week. I
figure leaving myself some flexibility might ensure I stick to the plan.
Second, I need to post on Twitter more often. For a while, I was a faithful
daily poster. For some reason, I slacked off last year, and I want to stop
doing that. No point in having social media if I’m not going to use it.
Don’t worry, I have plans for my books too.
Let’s start with the New Beginnings series. So far, there
are 4 of 6 books under my belt and I’m about to start working on the fifth. I
plan to release the last two books in this series this year. First up would be Out of Hiding, which is Luke’s story and
the only one of the six books in the series that features a m/m couple. The final book
will be one that I know many of you have been waiting for; Stone’s story which
is titled No One Really Knows.
I’m also planning to release at least one more book in the
Nice Ink series this year. Ideally, I’d like to release two, but it may not
happen. Because I’ve committed to alternating the releases in the New
Beginnings and Nice Ink series, I’m likely going to end up with the last two
New Beginnings books and one more Nice Ink book coming out this year. I started
the year off by releasing the Moved By
You, the third Nice Ink book. There are two more books in the series. The
next up is X’s story and it’s called Games We Play. The final book will be
Damian’s and it’s not titled yet. Well, actually it is, but I may change that
title as I’ve done with the last two in the series.
I’d like to attend at least one author signing event this
year, but I’m not sure about that one. Might have to file that away under:
start planning now for next year. There are a lot of things that go into
attending these events. Since I’ve never done one before, it’s especially
daunting. Maybe I’ll get lucky and there will be something close to home for
me. We’ll have to see.
I’ll be mapping out the next series I have planned and
looking into doing some story and character outlines so I’m ready to dive right
in when the time comes. I don’t want to give anything away yet, so we’ll just
stop there.
