Frequently Asked Questions:
😇 How old are you? 23

📚What are your favourite books? • 200 book recommendatio...
📚 Do you have a book club? Yes! You can join it here for free: fable.co/club/reading-with-th...
📝 Have you written a book? My life goal is to be a published author and make a living from writing and I am using this year to gain experience, build up a portfolio and work on a book with my agent. I have just finished the final draft of that book, as you can see in this video. I did self-publish a book about bullying when I was seventeen which is available on Amazon (amzn.to/3mdJKLm), but I'm slightly embarrassed by it now!

I love how this video made me feel like I'm reading a book about someones morning routine
I like that you embrace that sense of 'childhood wonder'.... We should never lose that. ❤
I completely agree!
@@RubyGranger8 you are now an adult and should grow up
I love when you're home cause then I can live through the eyes of someone who lives near nature for a bit🥲
As someone from a city with air pollution and almost no green areas, I relate to you on a spiritual level atp.
@sofielamy agreed, it's the worstttt😭 I'm sick to death of concrete.
There's something so cosy and whimsical about this video. Also, I'm not sure if it was intentional, but your way with words is very much like listening to a well-written novel being read out loud. I love everything about his video! I feel so relaxed after watching, and realise that I really do need to slow down more often and appreciate the little things. Thank you for making this 🙂
Honestly, this means so much! It was a different style so I wasn’t sure if people would like it but I really enjoyed making it!
I love that you still go in the tree house. I feel like treehouses are often abandoned after children grow up as if they can no longer be fun anymore. And they often fall into disrepair. Its like the pleasure and and memories of playing there are left behind in childhood. It made me smile to see you still using it.
Blue porridge in a teacup and long, blonde hair is giving serious Alice In Wonderland 💙
And then a tea party under a treehouse. And poetry. Dodgson would have been proud.
I felt the Alice in Wonderland vibes, moreorless from the start of the video, particularly using the cup for porridge ❤
I think this is what Ruby was going for in this video
I'm a silent follower ruby and I've been watching your videos for years and I love you I love your content and all that you do. I had to comment because I LOVE LOVE LOVE the concept of this video. Your writing, your narration, filming style and aesthetics. I loved all of this. Keep doing what you love and experimenting. We love to see it. Sending love and starshine your way. Also Ruby you are stronger than me because I would've brought that birdfeeder letterbox thing. I wouldn't have thought about it twice because if I hadn't had brought it it would haunt me in my dreams and I couldn't be able to get it out of my head.
Yes this! I was going to say the same thing😅
loved this video !!!!!

I absolutely love this style of video. It was so whimsical and fairytale-like. I aspire to include this kind of “absurdity” in my life 🩵
agree 100%
I loved this video, Ruby! You honestly add cheer and motivation to my week every time you post. That was a wonderful poem you wrote as well.
I really appreciated the tone of this video. I'm taking a big exam Tuesday and I'm in the last stretch of preparing for it. It's been a long road and I'm so ready for it to be over. This was just the mental break I needed to re-center and everything isn't super serious. Thank you and hope you enjoyed your Easter break!
Good luck for your exam! I’m sending only the best!
I love this. Keep doing what you do. This feels so relaxing.
I am having a tough day today and this is just what I needed. It's beautiful and wholesome, and it makes me feel more at ease and equally more emotional. I haven't cried in a while although I like doing it. Thank you, Ruby, for helping me relax and shed some grateful tears. 🌻
Watching this on a Rainy Day in April seems so ethereal.
Ruby please do more videos like this 🥹 It brought me so much joy and laughter !
Your poem is so beautiful! The imagery and sensory detail had me replaying it at least 3 times, I thereafter lost count. As an English teacher myself, I truly appreciated it, please share more of your poetry Miss Granger!
This channel is so calming. Thanks Ruby 🤍
I love all your vlogs. They're such a comfort to watch.
I thought it was a very nice video. The little things, feeling connected to nature. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing, I live in the Netherlands but the countryside of England is where my heart is. Wonderful to be there through your channel
Your best video ever in my opinion, it felt so comfy, and fun, felt like i was watching an audiobook of a whimsical novel come to life, and loved every bit of it, please do more in this style, your writing is gorgeous.
ahhh thank you so much! I think this is one of my favourite videos too... it was just so much fun to make and nice to do something different! x
I am so impressed by your restraint and not buying the birdie letterbox! Lovely video. The English countryside is gorgeous you are a very lucky girl.
Your poem sounded so magical ✨ could see a poem like that being published in an anthology :)
I really enjoyed this video :) also how poetic your videos became recently!
That poem is beautiful ❤. Thanks for sharing your day!
I love the nonsense style! I feel like it is a sort of an easthetic in itself, tea cups, birds and your blue shoes at the end go perfectly together!
Congrats on your second debut novel Ruby! Let’s go Erimentha 2.0!
watching this on a rainy day makes it perfect
🥺
One of your best video, the montage, the VO is great, the script and everything !!
I needed a video like this after an stressful day. Thank you Ruby❤
This video was amazing! That poem you wrote and read really was beautiful 😍
Thank you so much for such a beautiful video! I think it's amazing finding little absurds in our everyday life... It makes it much more fascinating
Thank you for inspiring me to make colourful porridge! It's perfection
This was a lovely vlog. It almost felt like you were reading us a sotry throughout. Thank you x
Hi Ruby, as a silent follower, i'd say it's obviously weird but beautiful and i am so in love with it, the way you film, the narration and stuffs just so whimsical! hope to see more like this x
Truly, this means so much! I loved making this video and so am so pleased you liked it too 🤍
loved this content, so artistic and yet so entertaining and gentle, all at the same time!
Such a fun & relaxing video!
I really loved this video ! I love all of them I follow you for many years now and I’m ready for what’s next !
Love this style you’re trying out!😊
loved the video Ruby! Really enjoyed the change of the video style, you seem to enjoy it more and it shows x
I love how this is presented. Such a peaceful and calming vlog. Thank you Ruby.
This video made me incredibly relaxed. Just feels really cosy, like a nice warm cup of tea by the fire when its raining outside
Ruby the birds are so beautiful in the intro! 🥹 so glad you didn’t put music over them. Overall loved the style of this video it is probably one of my favorites that you’ve ever posted.
I enjoyed your video today ruby. I have been having a hard week and this was calming
I absolutely adore the idea of keeping a pouch of bird seeds around!
full of whimsy I love it !!
The music is so reminiscent of Ireland! You’d love it ❤
I loved the vibe of this video. It put me in the mood to read the series of unfortunate events series. Strongs with uni and the dissertation, Ruby. 🌻
Enjoyed it immensely Ruby. Now that you're busy and kinda upload vlogs less frequently, I keep missing them. Hope you upload more
My Great Grandma would cook carrots over the stove top and add butter and brown sugar. One of my many favorite memories I have of her Wednesday night dinners.
That was a lovely poem Ruby, 😀
Loved the sound of the rain in your kitchen. I often have blue porridge as my favorite topping is blue berries.
Amazing content !!!! Its simply amazing the vibes of this video 🤸
This vlog was a delight ❤
Getting a video from Ruby is like receiving a letter from a loved one who lives oceans away ❤️
Unexpected rain here too today. Very nice given that endless months of terrible Texas summer lie just around the corner.
Amazing place🥰, wonderful family🙂. Thanks for creating videos, it is so interesting and inspiring for the life☺
This was LOVELY! It instantly calmed me down 💗
This kind of nonsense video as you called it was actually really nice and enjoyable. ❤😊 It made a lot of sense in many ways, especially when it’s so hard at times to deal with so much heavy stuff going on in the world and my life. I appreciate this nice break to see how you enjoyed the actual little things in a day that make up for happy moments. 😊❤
Ruby. You need to bring the bar down over your paper when you are typing. I used to use one. Good luck!
this video made for the perfect study break
I have a huge paper due and it's been really stressful, so I appreciated the whimsy.
Actually, I love the video; Great job Ruby
With the comments I’m reading, saying they are worried about the way you act, really proves that you did a wonderful job portraying that strangeness and nonsense kind of absurd style (and also that they didn’t watch the last part of the video lmao) and honestly i love it !! I also like to read nonsense things and would absolutely love if you do more of these vids in the future :-) have a nice day ! 🩷
Whimsical and beautiful. Thank you.
I loved this video!! Whimsy suits you :)
Rubyinski, you are too good for any of us! We are not worthy. You made me laugh in this one. Glad you're keeping on with your novel, that's important. I reread my novel (on amazon) a year ago and found about 14 typos. Fixed, uploaded. I'm rereading again a year later (now) and have found 10 more! Dammit. Makes me glad nobody has read it! It will be very very clean when I upload the new edits in May. It never ends. ;-)
This has such Neil Gaiman vibes, a bit surreal, a bit wholesome and a bit existential life questions like - loved ❤
Even the walk to the garden center is magical. You live in a truly magical place.
Different snd playful it's refreshing! Just like the serendipitous (precipitous) rain you enjoyed.
This video is a piece of poetry to me. Meal in the bushes, climbing in a long windy skirt, just every detail. Yes, it is not connected like lines of poetry don't have to be connected. They just leave a trace, a feeling while you can't even define the means used to make you feel this way
loved this.
There was a poetic vibe about the video. It was thought provoking. 9/10 good job 👍🏼
This is so fun!
I'm a bit surprised to hear you call your current novel in progress as your debut novel! I know people are often not super proud of the creative works they put out when they were much younger and it might be the case for you and your self-published novella, but I got the sense that you were still regarding the book fondly. I think it was during your gap year that you mentioned that book again in one of your videos, about how the whole writing process was done within a week or so with a stroke of inspiration and such, and you spoke with such affection. I wonder if your agent or someone you are in contact with regarding getting your book traditionally published advised you not to draw too much attention to your self-published book?
Such a lovely portrait of the English countryside! I feel like I've been there! Also, do you have any tips for working on a piece of fiction long-term like you are doing with your novel? My true passion is reading but it seems like a waste to leave the story I am writing for my creative writing class at just 20-30 pages. I'm presenting it in short story format for the class, but the plot is material for a much longer piece. How do you stick with the same idea and keep working at it even when you're in so deep that it's hard to view it objectively?
Loved this one! Brilliant way to start my day :) amazing that you have kites near you! I am a wildlife conservation student so that would be my dream! ❤
Our grape hyacinths and red tulips are blooming as well.
Absolutely love this video❤
It's been a privilege watching your videos over the years and seeing you grow into the brilliant, unique young woman you've become. Never change. ❤
In Bristol, we get that trouble with seagulls and pigeons - have to keep a tight hold of our sarnies!
this is the perfect sort of day for a jumper with stars on
Yay a new Ruby blog! This is a happy afternoon 🤗
Loved it😂❤
This was fun to watch :)
Its wonderful to be care free Ruby you need more of it your inner child is coming out of you loved this video and loved to hear the rain on the roof I always put out bird seed in the winter ❤
I absolutely loved the concept of this video!
this is probably one of my favorite videos so far!! I loved everything about it!!
Loved the video😍❤️
Love this format
Ruby, this video is just so enjoyable to watch! You truly made my day, thank you
Ruby this was so much fun to watch! Lovely as always!
Its rainy wow it is so sunny here in india ❤
Yay a new vlog again!
I’ve gone to the garden centre many many times and never bought a pastry before hand??
Oh dear… I don’t know how you’ve managed for this long! You might have to stock up on croissants just to be safe!
Oddly, her garden center is like mine and yes, they do sell pastries and coffee at my garden center! Downtown Home and Garden, Ann Arbor, Mich.
I loved it! As a huge fan of Alice and her adventures in wonderland, it was lovely! Also, an old piece of hosiery is wonderful for dusting and polishing candles! 😊😉
Thank you Ruby! from Tokyo
Where did you get the lemon mug? It’s so cute!! X
Loved the concept of this video! I've been feeling sad the past days and this made me feel quite lighthearted.
if the comfort of a warm fuzzy book had a video, it would definitely be this one. loved it so much that i want to print this video in my heart. such a comfort-giver.
