What can I say? I’m a dreamer.

Do you have those dreams, those goals, that you want to accomplish some day? Big ones, that you’ve been thinking about for years? I think we all do, and today I want to share some of mine with you.

Also, I’m testing out a new Pinterest graphic (above). What do you think?

Here are some things I dream of accomplishing at some point in my writing/author journey…

01. See one of my books in a physical bookstore

This is probably one of my earliest dreams, one that began back when I was still writing stories with rough doodles on lined paper and stapling them together. How thrilling it would be to see one of my books in a physical store…maybe pick up, read the blurb, sign it, put it in the front of the store. 😛

02. Get a book in a library

As a library fan myself, it would be so cool to get one a published book in my local library.

03. Get a fan letter

I dream of my stories impacting someone. And if a person writes to me telling my one of my books did just that, I’d probably frame that thing and hang it on my wall (after crying).

04. Have an in-person book signing

Getting books signed by your favorite author is one of the coolest things on the planet, and book signing events always looks so fun.

05. Speak at a conference?

Yes, there’s a question mark there. And I wrote it very tentatively. Because I have a terrible fear of public speaking so I don’t even know why I put this one on here???

06. Coach writers/teach storytelling

I have so much fun sharing what I’ve learning about writing and creative lifestyle here on this blog, and I think it’d be so cool to go bigger with this to coach writers in the craft of storytelling.

07. Publish a trilogy

Trilogies are my favorite length for a series. That sweet spot between a standalone and a long string of books. So, naturally, I’d like to publish a trilogy. I wanted my superhero WIP Ignite to be the first in a trilogy, but the story just didn’t really reach past a second book.

To me seven items isn’t that long. Oh but trust me, this list will grow…and keep growing…and growing…
