Every year I try to sketch out the game plan for upcoming releases and writing schedules. This year is no different, and as a believer in the mantra that if you write it down, you’ll actually accomplish it, below is my attack plan for 2020. Fair warning, it’s debatable if I’ll emerge in 2021 sane […]
