2022 was pretty damn good from the sound of it - 2023 will be great I'm sure. There are authors to discover, friendships to cherish, stories to get lost in, and writing to dive into.
As for having your cake and eating it too? That is literally the POINT of cake!
I'm happy to have 'met' you in 2022, yours is absolutely a friendship I'm cherishing this year.
aww, thanks Derri, I'm so happy to have met you as well. This is indeed a year for cherishing friendships.
To the completion of Realm of the Elderlings! *raises glass*
So proud of all of your hard work and success with you or writing, my friend!!!!
thanks! it means a lot :)
Ooooh, those sweet Bounty Hunter/Kenobi hardcovers!
But yeah, it's far more important to have a sustainable and enjoyable creative output than to drive yourself too hard, burn out, and get derailed. Still working on that, myself...
Thanks! Figured someone would notice lol
Hopefully picking up the Bounty Hunter one to read soon.
That balance is very hard to achieve. But we strive for it anyway because difficulty should not prevent us from action. Cheers to a balanced 2023!
Good to see you back. You definitely did better than me with no. of series finished. Goodluck with 2023 goals and plans.
thanks! good to be back. last year was a huge effort. Now to undo it all by starting ALL THE SERIES
These sound like exciting plans, man! So glad to see you back!
thanks! it's good to be getting back into the swing of things
Took me way too long to get to this video, but I am here now so it's all good. Anyway, it sounds like you have some exciting goals! I am happy to hear that Nanowrimo has lit a spark in you, I would LOVE to read anything that comes out of your wonderful mind, haha. And good luck with building the computer, that sounds like quite the task!
YAY for being so good at finishing series last year, you knocked it out of the park! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the series you are planning to continue with in 2023, hope they all bring you lots of joy! Happy reading and all the best to you this new year 🤩
Considering how backed up my to watch list is, it hasn’t been long at all!
We’ll see if this book gets published immediately. I think I’ll probably write 3 or 4 to get the hang of it before trying to publish any of them.
Hopefully lots of series to finish this year as well, but also a lot of new releases I’m super interested in.
@@PonderingsOfPete Sounds like a nice plan in terms of your writing. Practice makes perfect!! Still wishing you all the best, hope you have fun with whatever you are working on :)))
Hi 👋 welcome back and happy new year 🥳 wish u luck for ur 2023 goals!! Happy reading to u!! 🥳🎉
thanks! happy reading to you too!
Good luck with your goals! Those all sound fun.
thanks! Another year, another chance to get stuff done.
Glad to see you back, friend! Hope you are well.
I'm doing great! Every day trying to restrain myself from telling everyone in sight about Dandelion
Good luck with infinite jest- its a beast of a book! From one homeschool nerd to another
much appreciated!
You had a great year! I'm thinking of reading a few of your 2023 books this year too, especially Abraham.
Thanks! Which Abraham books are you thinking?
@@PonderingsOfPete I have LPQ, Age of Ash and The Dragon's Path ready to go but will probably start with LPQ. Am also on book 4 of Expanse, which I hope to get through at least 3-4 this year.
@@bridgit2541 wooooh! We (me, Overly Average Ben, Grace Dionne, and others) are planning a readalong of LPQ starting in June if you aren’t finished by then.
Glad to have you back Pete! I actually want to start Infinite Jest sometime this year...maybe...lol
Do.
It.
Do.
It.
Do.
IT.
Also I know SarahReads might be starting it as well, maybe in March? drop a line in her discord and someone will say something, either her or Moonspan will
ooooo I wanna do LPQ for the first time! I’ll be so curious to see what you make of the Esslemont NotME books, the mixediest of mixed bags for me.
Also wanna dive into more KJ Parker!
Oooo your own novel!!! Wooo!!!
I think we’re gonna end up starting around… June, I believe. Other people need to finish up the ASOIAF readalong first.
Good to see you back Pete.
Thanks!
Infinite Jest sounds like a challening read from everything I’ve heard. Congrats on all the series you completed last year and all the channel plans! I’m reading LPQ for the first time this year! 🥳
Yeah it’s one of those books that I have to be in the mood for a good portion of the time and I haven’t been great about figuring that out. I just need to be more intentional about it.
As for LPQ, finally! So excited for you to read it. Do you have a month for when you’re planning to start yet?
@@PonderingsOfPete I think later in the summer. I want to be mostly finished with the ASOIAF readalong. I’m happy others are interested in reading/rereading LPQ because I feel like one of the last people in this corner to get to it! 😅
@@Johanna_reads there's still others we can get on the boat.
we're thinking of starting in June on Overly Average Ben and Grace Dionne's Discord, so if you're down for a buddy read, the door is open!
@@PonderingsOfPete I'm going to be buddy reading it with Matt on Books, but I may jump over to that discord as well! :)
@@Johanna_reads awesome!
Nice to see you back!
I think Robin Hobb is good but didn't find her as great as many readers do. But I did finish ROTE in 2022 except Rainwild.
Best wishes for your writing and the Patreon!
Thanks! To each their own with Hobb. I am not looking forward as much to RainWilds tbh
@@PonderingsOfPete Hopefully its a decent reading experience. Interested to hear your thoughts on IJ, I quit that book five times at different points😂
@@Paromita_M if I can finally get it done😂

If you build it, they will come (it being a computer, and they being subscribers). Yes, I know that was dorky
Hey, when Field of Dreams fits, it ships for one low flat rate
