What a year it’s been!
In summary, here’s most of what I’ve done as a Nigerian Indie Author in the diaspora having set out main goals and mapped out a plan.
- Publishing an erotic anthology with a pen name
- Publishing Romantic Illusions
- Leading and working on multiple projects with multiple authors
- Publishing Escape, A Twin Bliss Resort Novel
- Working with Street Teams and Advance Readers
- Ignoring other goals
- Surpassing 3,000 Instagram followers
- Launching a newsletter
- ReLaunching this beautiful website
- Having over 300 newsletter subbies with over 60% open rates
- Almost hitting a 1000 YouTube Camaraderies (Please subscribe here if you haven’t)
- Author interview on one blog and multiple Instagram accounts
- Launching writing classes and workshops
- The list is endless ☺️☺️☺️
In the video below, I break down most of these goals into months in the year 2021 in a conversational style.
Although I didn’t meet some of my goals, looking back, I feel fulfilled and I know the next steps to take as an indie self-publishing author.
Do you set goals? Make plans? What’s your process like?
