New Year, New Beginnings!

2020 was a challenging year for everyone. Some fortunate ones stayed safe during this insane year, while many lost their lives or jobs. Everyone faced craziness by staying inside or/away from their loved ones. 

COVID-19 came as a warning that the world can be stopped by a single virus. The economy collapsed, and no one could do anything about it. It also explains how much attention the health sector needs. 

This year tested everyone's patience and taught some valuable lessons. It gave us time to ponder over the essential aspects of our life. 

I'm sure many of you spent time learning a new skill or picking up an old one. This year proved to be a blessing for me. I read a lot and used my time to learn about SEO. 

There were also some ups and downs, but I approach it as a part of life and concentrate on positive perspectives. But I'm also a human, and no matter how tough I tried, occasionally, I felt like everything was falling apart. 

To keep me optimistic is a tedious task. In those dark moments, my work helped me a lot. It occupies my mind and time, and now we all are coming to the end of 2020. I'm not sure what the next year holds for me, but I'm sure that I'll face it with all the courage. I hope that you'll too. 

Here are some of the things I'm proud of, or you can say it's the highlight of 2020 for me that I really want to share with you all. 

1. My parents and I bought a house in Indore. 

2. Books Chharming crossed 260k+ page views with an average of 20k views per month. 

3. I got married to my boyfriend on 19th December.

4. I moved to Pune on the last day of 2020.

5. Two reputed bloggers interviewed me.

6. I started writing a guest post for other bloggers.

7. I reached a milestone of 100 author interviews on Books Charming. The recent interview was number 119.

8. I published my first non-fiction book, How to Become an Amazon Influencer?

9. I sold 90+ copies of my book.

10. I started my YouTube channel.

11. I was awarded the Best Blogger of the Year by The Literary Mirror. 

12. I read 18,761 pages. 

Due to marriage, the shifting process, and other work, I've not finished reading some books. I'm halfway through them and hoping to read/review them ASAP. 

Also, a huge thank you to all my readers, supporters, authors, and fellow bloggers; without you, I would not meet some of my goals. 

I wish you all good luck for 2021. I hope you are blessed with prosperity, wellness, and happiness. Keep reading! Keep supporting!
