What's on YOUR Bucket List as a Writer?

 'Bucket List' has, it seems, become a new catch-phrase everywhere. Even the invitation to my 50th HS reunion coming up in October asked for a 'bucket list' of things we still want to do, even at our age. (Avoid doctors? Hope our retirement funds don't dry up? Survive? You get the idea.) But as a writer--ah, that's a whole 'nother subject...



 So, here goes...




10 Things on My Writer's Bucket List

(in no particular order)




Rack up some (really) decent sales on my five published novels. (I know, I know, they're not HOT...sigh.)
Re-write all 6 Penelope Pembroke cozy mysteries and get them 'out there' as an indie.
Keep current with my writing notebook; ditto the writing journal.
Travel to craft/book fairs around the state and sell books.
Meet the writers I've corresponded with via email and Facebook.
Attend as many writing conferences as I can afford.
Start sending out my stash of short stories to various magazines and journals.
Find the right publisher for Four Summer Days.
Attend a writing retreat (The Writers' Colony in Eureka Springs).
Travel and bring home new writing ideas.

There it is, folks. I could probably add more items, but the above list is pretty inclusive. And, what's even better, everything on the list is doable!
