《Tippy's Notebook》Wattpad Goals for 2020, recap
Advertisement
Another year has come and gone which means its time for me to look back at the goals I set at the start of the last one and see if I achieved them.
I already know I missed hard this year lol, but let's see.
-----------
1 - Delicate
I mean.... I don't think any of us knew how deep Delicate would be, like I did not expect the plot to have followed the path it has, especially with Will's arc.
I started Delicate in 2019 which is crazy that it's been more than a year, but I mean I get why it isn't completed yet.
For one, as stated above, the plot and the characters themselves are very complex and I've been giving a lot of attention to them, in little details and shifts that take time to unfold properly. I love writing Delicate but for it to finish nicely, I have to continue awarding Damon and Will's story the same attention I did when I started it.
Secondly, the chapters have just gotten so long haha. Like it was 3000-6000 words, last update I touched 10,000! That shit is just crazy so it takes a lot out of me when I do a single chapter cause its like 3 are in there.
And lastly, with my university work and my Patreon account, its no longer as easy to update as frequently. I update as often as I can, but that still leaves books waiting weeks to a month without an update. But if you look at all I update as a whole, I do update rather frequently.
But anyway, sadly, I wasn't able to finish the book this year. Though I'm happy I didn't since Delicate has been my favourite book to date to write.
2 - Master

I severely overestimated my ability to write a simple, sweet book. When I started with Master, I wanted it to be a book full of fluff, smut and love, nothing complicated.
That has not happened.
Master is still all of those things I think, but I couldn't help myself from developing a plot and delving a little deeper into Kalem and Lincoln too. Aghh, I didn't mean to but again, I'm happy that I did.
I LOVE MASTER.
I love the characters, I love their friendships and relationships, I love their story and I just love how light and enjoyable it is. I really do enjoy the book and I can't wait to see where it's going.
3 - Control - Hagen's book
Well, this didn't happen.
I feel like everything I've said above about the time I have for writing and the turn the two books I'm currently writing took, explains why this goal wasn't achieved.
I know a lot of you were super excited for this so I'm really sorry I couldn't start it last year, but when the book does come out, I promise to give it the same love and care I do with all my books!
4 - Peter's, Aias' or Wequie's Book (only 1, not all or 2, just one)
Yeah, same reasons as above. I don't think I need to repeat again.
5 - Do more
Finally!!!! A goal I have achieved ughhh
Lol. I looked back and I did do a few of these updates this year which were challenging at times but it always makes me so happy to see you guys going crazy in the comments.
So yay!
6 - Make every reader . Silent cry, heavy cry, shaking cry, breakdown cry; all the cries.
I know they're a few of you psychopaths who read my books and don't shed a single tear - I'm still working on getting you. But I know for a fact that I did get some of you last year and that my other humans were breaking down throughout the year.

ESPECIALLY with the start of Delicate, that shit was brutal, even for me.
But I'm happy I was able to get those emotions out of you, Delicate has been a whirlwind of emotions but I like to think that it has all, and will all, be worth it in the end.
------------------
So that's a recap of all the goals I set out last year. 2 out of 6 is not good but I tried my best.
My goals for 2021 will be more precise I think, with strategies attached so that I can better achieve them.
Check them out if you're interested.
Love you all and Happy New Year,
Tippy

Dreamer/Leveler
Zachary Trenner is a freshman at Burlington High School. Despite his mundane appearance and advanced course curriculum, something strange is happening to him. Every time he goes to sleep he switches worlds. Portals are popping up everywhere, allowing access between Earth and the world of Vera. Now he must spend every waking and sleeping moment getting stronger to fight off the [Instance Dungeons] opening on both Vera, and Earth. Prepare for an RPG fiction full of magic, action, a touch of romance, and the author's own dry humor. When the modern technology of Earth meets the medieval magic of Vera, which culture will invade the other world first? When the army rangers of the United States collide with the members of the Hunter's Guild, who will win? Updates on Wednesdays/Thursdays Cover is my own creation. Tips to reading: This is my first book, so cliches and tropes are used as the base and then expanded upon. My intention is to make it a casual read but deep if you decide to look closer. I'm not a people person, so my focus and purpose for writing this is to explore the world building and magic system, not necessarily the characters. There won't be a villian until the postgame ;) Author's philosophy: I took an professional personality inventory (through a community college back in 2018) and was categorized as a "double-checker." I'm never satisfied with the work that I complete, and never want to share it with anyone. But this book is a challenge to myself! As a rule of thumb, I will only add to the story. I can't remove elements I've already included (unless absolutely, absolutely necessary). PS, I'm a native English speaker.
