    Hearing you speak on the drafting stages is so helpful! And inspiring! You're so right about writing that draft 2 in the new document but needing to gather your ideas and plans.

    I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to you. Your videos have been a source of inspiration, comfort, and joy in my life. Your content lifted my spirits and provided me with a sense of belonging. Through your insightful reviews, book recommendations, and vlogs, you've helped me discover new worlds, expand my reading horizons, and find solace in the power of storytelling. I am truly grateful for the community you've created and the positivity you radiate. Your authenticity and willingness to share your own experiences have made me feel understood and supported. Thank you for being there for your viewers, including me, during both the good and challenging times. Your dedication to creating engaging and meaningful content is truly remarkable, and I cannot thank you enough for the positive influence you've had on my life.

    Love you Christine! Massage Therapist here, and I HIGHLY recommend getting either the treadmill desk or a standing desk and getting a flat treadmill. That way you can have your body moving while you write. It'll be an adjustment, but people that work on computers are the majority of my clients and you'll feel better!

    Hey Christine! I am writing this with all of the love and respect from one anxious bean to another! I noticed that you made a comment about trying anxiety meds and it not really working for you-which is the case for a lot of people! But I do hope that you'll give them another chance in the future. I started anxiety meds of my own last year (and, in the words of my doctor, the meds help to "take the edge off the anxiety," and I can confirm that's absolutely true). But I also know the journey to finding the right med and dose can take a little while! I just hope the meds that didn't work in November didn't scare you off them forever. I promise they can and do help, but it takes time to find the right kind (plus, there's that pesky 4-6 week waiting time before the meds are fully effective). Much like with the writing journey, don't forget to be patient with yourself and take care! 💜

    this is SO random (but also big fan): next month you can do the mid-year freak out tag ALONGSIDE the same tag but with content creators. We all discover different channels everyday, but the ones with bigger followers can shout out some, meaning more and more new channels get noticed! maybe?

    Little late to commenting, but if you're using Word you should be able to turn on autosave so that it just automatically saves as you write, so then you'd be less likely to lose what you're working on
