    “You do the best you can until you can’t do it anymore.”
    Love that you said that. Applies to writing and life in general.

    So I just want to share this, the last video you posted where you shared the blurb and premise of the book really got me thinking. The protagonist is going to England to do university Again, but better and I’ve been tossing up the idea of going back to uni. I just finished a bachelor in finance and as my heart was not in it I ended up just passing as I just wanted to be done. I’ve always wanted to do Interior Design and so you’ve inadvertently inspired me to go back to uni to do it again, but better.

    I started watching this channel a little over five years ago bc no one else was geeking out in my real life over books. It's helped keep me motivated and rediscovering my love for books, and I'm a little ashamed to say, I haven't been keeping up with it as much over the past year (life happens), but when I saw this update I was SO excited and had to click on it. Watching writing ep no 1 i was so weary of the journey you were about to embark on and to see it materialize after so long is incredibly inspiring. anyway what I'm saying is I'm weirdly (is it weird???IDK) excited for you!! and for me??? hell yes we love a good rom com!

Tbh that scares me because I’m afraid of being in a funk like that, it’s dangerous for some people because moods stick and avoiding a depression is priority.

    Girl, I’m crying. But they’re tears of happiness for you. I’ve been a viewer for years and I started watching this series from ep 1. I was an English major who lacked confidence in my writing and it took away my joy. Watching your videos, where you were drafting for the love of storytelling and nothing else was a frickin revolution for me. It’s very rare that I’ll read a contemporary genre story, but I’m making two exceptions-one for Tahereh’s book and one for yours. I can’t wait. A heartfelt congratulations to you. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.

I have been following your writing since the beginning and videos for the longest time and you have inspired me more than you could ever know. I'm not a person who makes friends easily and coming onto booktube and finding your videos finally made me feel as though someone understood where I was coming from. This is the first comment I have left but your draw my life video was a real help through my parent's divorce and you inspire me to read and write constantly. I wait for your videos every week (On Wednesdays for New Zealanders) and hopefully one day I will get to meet you in person. Thank you for all you have done for me and so many others and I can't wait to read your book. I'm sure it will be astounding with all of the efforts you have put into it. Byyyyyeeeeeee
