My Top Ten (Actually Five) Bookish Goals for 2025
1. Get back to blogging
My blogging has been so sporadic lately, and I know I’ve said this before, but I think I have a plan for getting back on track with an actual schedule. I miss this community, and I want to make it a priority in 2025.
2. Start participating in my own link-ups again!
This is directly related to my first goal. I’ve been hosting the Book Blog Discussion Challenge and the Monthly Wrap-Up Round-Up for many years now, but this past year I barely interacted with them at all. Not only did I not post for them, but I wasn’t visiting posts often either. Considering the fact that I used to make a point of visiting every post linked, this was a huge shift for me.
3. Participate in some other link-ups
As I mentioned previously, I miss the blogging community! Link-ups are often the best way to reconnect. So I’m going to try to participate in TTT as often as I can, along with a few kidlit link-ups.
4. Finish editing my current WIP
Okay, well now that I’ve talked about blogging, I also need to keep up with my writing in 2025! I plan to try hard to stick to working no more than three days a week at Barnes & Noble so I can focus on writing. I’ve been working on converting a WIP from prose to verse, and I really need to finish it in February!
5. Edit one of my other WIPs (or write something new?)
I’m leaning toward the first option because I have a tendency to write something and then never quite get it to the finish line. I have a few projects that are either completed first drafts or partially finished drafts. In 2025, I want to get one of those drafts in submission condition.
And I’m stopping at five – because, honestly, these five tasks are already stretching me. I don’t need more goals than that!
What are your bookish goals in 2025? I wanna know!
