I watched you three years ago and now I'm writing a book 🎉
Yay! This makes me so happy to read 😄
I began watching your channel at the ripe age of 12. Your videos taught me some of the basic principles of writing and aided in motivating me to start my first novel! Fast forward 4 years, and I am now a high school student taking college classes and working on the 2ND DRAFT of that very book. While a total rewrite will be needed from the first draft of this novel (hence the age I wrote it), it is partially because of you that I wrote a full length Sci-Fi novel by the time I finished my first year of high school. THANK YOU!!!
you are you using the word (hence) wrongly..
Excited to see you again! Your writing vlogs have always been inspiring
Aww thank you!! 💜
@@VivienReis hi, I am an aspiring writer, I would like to know how much you earned with your first book
I just realized you're back! That makes me so happy. I've been checking in on your channel once in a while. Welcome back
Your video is refreshing. I love how visceral this video was. Inspired, thanks.
So glad to see you've returned to UA-cam, Vivien. I'm starting to rewrite a couple projects of my own. So excited!
Thank you!! And good luck with your projects! Rewriting is my least favorite stage so I hope you like it better than I do 😂
It's wonderful to see your videos again! Looking forward to hearing more about this new project!
Welcome back! Best wishes to you and your family, and happy writing!
So happy you’re back!!
Thank you!! It felt so weird to hit "publish" in a video again 😂
Miss your videos. They have always helped and inspired me 💗
So happy to see you back on UA-cam. I love your videos!
Thank you!! I'm hoping to get back into writing tips videos soon as well 😁
Ah I’ve missed these videos so so much!! Welcome back!💗💗
Try looking into the Nordic Sagas. The stories are multiple generations much like what Star Wars is now.
It's good to have you back Vivien.
Thank you so much! Now that the nerves of posting a video again have passed I'm excited to be back!
Vivien! I've missed you! I don't have many authortubers that I actually like, so I'm SO glad to see your face!
Been watching you ever since, so inspiring. Please make more videos
Glad to see you're writing again. Writing makes writers happy. At the moment I'm about 65% through my rough draft.
So glad to have you back!! I love your vlogs❤️
When you mentioned being finished with book 2 of The Elysian Prophecy my heart skipped a beat - I’m REALLY looking forward to continuing that series! 😍 but good luck with your new project as well!
Thank you so much! I'm fairly certain I'll be publishing TEP2 within the next year, but I wanted to chase the "shiny object" of a new project for a bit. Once I'm excited about writing and publishing I'll definitely jump back into that series!
@@VivienReis
I'm so glad you're still writing. I'm looking forward to reading TEP2 😁
I adore the outlining process. Good luck with the rest of camp! I caught Covid on Day 3 and still haven't recovered but I'm doing a little bit every day to at least make some progress.
Oh I hope you feel better soon!! 💜
I missed this ❤️
I found your channel cause I want to be better at writing. Thank you for such good content!
YOU'RE BACK VLOGGING!!
YYAAAYYYYYYY 🎉🎊🥂
Yay!!!! I missed your videos
Thank you thank you 🥰
So nice to see you again :)
Thank yoouu! It feels weird and great and exciting and scary to be back lol
Good to see you
Thank you!! I'm really going to try to make the vlogs a regular thing and build up to the writing tips videos. I wish the livestreaming had fit better into my schedule!
Welcome
Good luck with Camp Nano!
Thank you so much!! So far so good but I haven't written any words yet lol
I totally get the outlining books spiel. Personally, I love Save the Cat for it's straightforward...ness because I have the tendency to overthink and get overwhelmed by the more complicated ones. I'm simple.
I have a baby now as well, learnings how to find space your writing was the hardest part!
Same! And once you get into a routine, their schedule changes lol
I love the idea of writing backwards. Never done it before. I'll try anything once. Lol
Totally get you on being tired. Combination of motherhood and burning the candle at both ends. 😊
Anyway, love the content - really enjoy your vlogs.
Thank you! We'll see if I actually write backwards now that I said that lol
Just found your channel. Love it! Really liked your outfit too. I'm writing a regency mystery book for camp. Might dress up for a day like my character. :)
They said a good book can take more than a year to write- especially if it's a good book- especiallecially if you're new at it.
So that was five years ago and it's up to five books in progress :p
I've enjoyed listening to your videos. Thanx :)
Hi Vivien, I hope you're well. I loved the Elysian Prophecy book and read it the week it was published, I've been waiting for the sequel ever since. Are there any plans for more books in that world soon?
Anytime I have a weird dream I jot it down on a pad next to my bed and see if it can be connected to my story. Sometimes my subconscious fixes what I can't fix awake. Or at least add a twist to my story I hadn't thought of awake. I love that you dress for mood enhancement for your book. I put things around my desk and bulletin board that would belong to my protagonist.
I am attempting to write either a novella but I might not go through with it
I would love to do a collab with you vivien. Have fun writing
Hi, Vivien. 😊👋I'm supposed to be participating in CampNaNoWriMo too, but it hasn't gone too well so far. Hence, procrastination and tiredness from work. I'm writing a short story and my goal is 10k, but I haven't locked in any words during week 1. Trying to get some words in tonight. I need to write at least 500 each day the rest of the month to reach my word count goal.
You can do it!
I hear you on being tired. I wanted to make it a game to see who could correctly guess how many times I say some variation of "tired" in my video 😂
It definitely makes writing so much harder. But I believe in you!
Well, it’s April 12, 2023. Where are you? Did you close down your channel? I don’t see anything that states that. Are you still providing insights in writing?
Hey
when i look your video i peling very good
What happened to the live sprinting streams?
I meant to address it in this video, but unfortunately my schedule just isn't consistent enough right now for livestreams 😖
Damn! Watching you after 7 long years. Your face kinda changed😄. I recognized you.... Doing great!?
Your outfit looks very vintage. I'm guessing 50s or 60s. 🙂
🤫
My nano is not going great
Oh I'm sorry to hear that! Is it a motivation/life thing or a story/plot thing getting in the way?
What happened to this channel? I used to watch it all the time a few years ago.
