The start of a new year always feels like a fresh chapter, and 2025 is no exception. This year, I’m focusing on growth, creativity, and balance—both personally and professionally.
Reflecting on 2024 Goals
Last year, my goals were ambitious:
Complete a fantasy series
Read 75 books
Read 50% of my physical TBR
Get on a publisher influencer list
Read more ARCs
Out of all these, I only completed one: finishing a fantasy series. I ended up reading 65 books, and the other goals felt less important as the year went on. But that’s okay—I’m taking those lessons into 2025.
2025 Reading Goals
Read More Fantasy: This year, I want to explore the fantasy genre more and discover which types I genuinely love.
Read 75 Books: I was so close last year, but a major reading hangover after finishing ACOTAR slowed me down. This year, I’m determined to hit that goal.
Growing My Blog
I’ve always wanted to dedicate more time to my blog, and 2025 is the year to make it happen. I’m truly passionate about it, and I think growing my blog will be a "two birds, one stone" moment—encouraging readers to stick around and check out everything else I offer.
Writing My Book
Yes, you read that right—I started writing a book! The idea came to me on my birthday while chatting with my family, and I actually began drafting it. Life got in the way, and my writing stalled, but I’m ready to pick it back up in 2025. December taught me that my first book doesn’t need to be 250+ pages—I can start small. That’s all I’ll say for now, but stay tuned for updates!
Other Goals for 2025
Expand Product Offerings: Introduce new book accessories like Kindle inserts and dusters alongside my popular bookmarks.
Wholesale Opportunities: Build on my Faire acceptance and continue growing my wholesale client base.
Create More Content: Consistently publish blog posts and share engaging bookish content on social media.
Prioritize Health and Balance: I will focus on avoiding burnout, embracing my introverted nature, and creating harmony between work and personal life.
These are the goals I’m setting for 2025. It’s all about taking intentional steps forward, embracing challenges, and staying true to my passions. What are your goals for the new year? Let’s inspire each other to make 2025 the best year yet!
