Oh, I hope this means we’ll get some write alongs too, I’d love to do one of those while I’m actually working on a book
“I promise I’m normal!”
I’m a writer too and trust me, we aren’t normal 🤡 We’re just a whole other species
Congrats!!! Can you show us more behind the scenes of what exactly is sent in to pitch your book and (hopefully) get purchased before you actually have to write it? Or did you already cover this topic somewhere?
seconding this!! i would love to hear more about the process of selling on proposal!
Congratulations!!! And I’m so glad you’re back! Authortube is a much better place when you’re in it!
Yes the isolation trope thriller! It's finally happening!
You should read "Even If We Break" by Marieke Nijkamp. It's about this group of friends, who have their intertwined drama, go to a cabin to play dungeons and dragons and it goes horribly wrong.
It's nerds, queer characters, and a great YA thriller.
This is exciting news, Alexa! Congratulations!
The only bad part is the wait to read! I'm very intrigued by the premise and I'd love to read this book.
Alexa, I am already looking forward to this book! I have been working on my own book for about 6 years off and on. I hope to be able to self-publish through Amazon by the end of the year. Thank you for all the advice and inspiration!
Congratulations! This is brilliant news, and as a fellow lover of thrillers, I can't wait to read your take on the YA isolation trope. I loved Silent Night by Nell Pattison, but it wasn't really isolation like I find in the adult thrillers. I am so excited now for The Bitter End, and of course, Pretty Dead Queens (love love love the name - I can already hear "got a secret, can you keep it" in my head 😂)
So well deserved! im excited to see this blend of your interest in mountaineering, isolation trope, and prep school thriller!
Good for you! Congratulations! Can't wait to read it!
Congratulations. That’s so exciting and I’m glad you’ll be doing some more vlogs about your process, always enjoy them. Best wishes!
Love these good vibes videos! Congratulations. PS: Love the eye-shadow, great blending, great colours - wow.
congratulations. saw your book on the goodreads blog post about ya mystery thrillers yesterday and cheered at it
Congratulations Alexa! It sounds like it's going to be an amazing book and I can't wait to read it. Also, I'm so glad there's someone else that gets equally as happy about killing off characters as me lol 😂😂 and I find myself having to say often "FBI I'm not killing people for real, don't come for me" lol. Congrats again and take good care of yourself! ❤️
Oh man, congraulations! I just recently turned 30, so watching your videos makes me feel great because I know you published at 32, so there's still some hope for me.
Even better, I was 34! And I sold when I was 33 :)
Love the premise! Looking forward to reading it
yayyy writing vlogs! best of wishes for you and your book, it sounds amazing! can't wait to read it
Can't lie, that video title was the best I've seen yet
Congratulations! The isolation trope is my fave too. Let the mountain murders begin 🤣❄️
I am so happy for you! I can’t wait to read it. If you like isolation stories you should play Until Dawn or watch someone play it. It has the gossipy teen vibe mixed with cabin in the woods vibe. I think you would enjoy it.
YEP came here to say this
I had the exact same thought as soon as I read the book deal blurb--this sounds like Until Dawn in book form! Until Dawn is one of my favorite games of all time so I'm already looking forward to The Bitter End.
I loved the Lois Duncan, Christopher Pike, and RL Steine Fear Street type thrillers as a teen. Congrats!
congratulations!! looking forward to hearing more about this book 🤩
I’m writing my first book and have been watching your videos for a month Alexa, to get me through it! ❤️ I love you girl and you deserve all your success! Cant wait for your thriller novel!
Just an idea - it'd be great for those of us working on a book to see your writing schedule so we can work 'alongside' you? Especially those of us who work full time as well. This would be great as a motivation tool to see your progress and see if we can match it.
Congratulations! Can't wait to read it!
Oh my goodness I can't wait!😆 I love that trope so freaking much!❤❤❤❤ Congrats!
Ahhhhh!! Congratulations! 🎉📚
Yes!!!! Congratulations, Alexa. So pleased for you!
Congratulations on your next publication! Amazing news! You worked so hard and it has been paying off so much. I'm still so excited that this is your 3rd book at Random House and you got recognized by Brandon Sanderson! Hope you continue to find publication success!
Congratulations Alexa!! Side-eying for writing & process vlogs?? This sounds so exciting!
That's amazing! So happy for you! Looking forward to reading that book! Oh, and that eye shadow + lipstick are ravishing on you, Alexa! 🤩
Congratulations!! It’s the middle of 2022 already. You gotta write fast 🤣
Yesss! Congrats to you!! More great books for us!
Oooh yeah! Congrats! I love the isolation trope, no pesky help coming to save them. That makes me sound crazy. You know what I mean.
Congratulations Alexa!! I'm already excited to read it :)
Exciting! Congratulations! Gossip Girl meets And Then There Were None?! Take my money now!!
mountain thriller with teens 👍🏾
Congrats on the book deal! Also, that shirt is gorgeous!
So excited! Can't wait! Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳
So happy for you, Alexa! Congratulations!
Ahhh, congrats, congrats! I'm so excited for you and can't wait for all the vlogs to come for this journey!
This is amazing! 🎉 do you still use the plotting backwards method and the thriller beats video to plot your novels or are you doing something different now?
Yep totally still use that! I worked backwards from the twist on this one :)
I just SCREAMED. I am SO excited for you!!!!!!!
Congrats! Oh my god, I'm so happy for you!
Oh yes yes yes more prep school suspense. I'm far from my teen days, but I suffered through boarding school so I so enjoy these books.
Woohoo! Congratulations, Alexa! Can't wait for the writing vlogs to come (and the book itself, of course).
So exciting! Congratulations 🎉
So happy for you Alexa! Very awesome! 😀
Congrats!!! Looking forward to it! 🥰
I’m already so excited for this book lol 😂 and I cannot wait for pretty dead queens to come out in the fall 😊😊
Congrats!! I can't wait!! :D
As always, hella excited about this!!!!
Congrats! I'm not gonna lie, the video title had me thinking _Until Dawn_ xD
Sounds like Gossip Girl meets the Sanatorium. Can you do an updated video on the advance for a third tradpub book?
Congrats- fabulous news!
That shirt is so dang eye-catching! 😍
Congratulations on the new deal!
Congratulations! Can't wait for it.
Oh and please do a video on the plagiarism scandal going on! You always have good takes! Congrats :)
Congratulations!!! Well deserved!
This is exciting
Congratulations, it's great to see you again! You look so happy!
Congrats!!!! This is amazing.
So excited!!!!!
Yesss I love this give me all the isolated dead teens
Until Dawn is the first thing that came to mind for this!!!
Oh Alexa, you’re killing it! Can’t wait!!!
Oooo... loving that title though. Super excited, it'd gonna be an auto buy from me!
Maybe you've said this in another video, but how you you manage selling books that you haven't written yet as a pantser? Are you still a pantser? Really cool to hear you're publishing another book!
YAAAAAAAAY Multi POV!!
Congrats! Let the body bags begin :-)
I don't understand, Alexa... you're an established author. I thought you had loads of deals already, you inspiration, you!
I am so happy for yuh!!!!! :) Congratulations :)
This sounds awesome!!!
Congratulations!!
I wasn’t that intrigued by the blank in space books. The ivies had a pretty badass cover, but I still wasn’t sure it was for me. This one… this one I’m waiting for, clicking off the video now to avoid spoilers.
congratulations ♥️
Congratulations 🎉🎊🍾
We believe in you. Go get 'em.
Congratulations!
🥳🥳🥳
Gossip Girl meets Until Dawn
I see.....this is the take on Shining, Cabin in the woods, Masked Jason, Agatha Christie's And there was none and Who Done it. I hope you manage this, as you just hit the popular mode. I know you can do it, good luck to you
Yes! Mountain murder 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Are you leaving Twitter for Tumblr 😳
Wait, so did I get this right: you got a book deal without having written the book, but by telling your agent what the book is going to be about? I'm not keen on this, but this is what you said here, right? Congratulations 🎊
I submitted a proposal. If you search my channel, I made a video on selling on proposal, which outlines how it works! I submitted 8K and a comprehensive synopsis for the book.
@@AlexaDonne Thank you for replying 🙏😊. Will look it up!
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations!
