TRACK CHANGES ARE BASICALLY MORDOR. Good job, Frodo. You may have emerged scarred for life...BUT YOU DID IT. So. There's that. Also, kudos for turning it in on time. Your publisher will love you forever. YOU DID THIS!! YOU GO GIRL!
a manuscript i worked on in my writing degree i had the same problem with "staring" and "starring" and when i realized it i was like WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME? so i feel you
If you are bothered by the colors that come with track changes you can choose to view the final markup while you write (the is a drop down menu next to the track changes botton). :)
Seeing how excited Christine is for this book is so inspiring my god, just like the end of Defying Gravity. That belting of the note/crying of emotions/smiling of pride holy crap
Wow, publishing a book is so much work, I applaud authors who publish a book every year, or even more than a book a year! Can't wait for more writing updates!!
I know the feeling when you think you’ve written one part for the last time, then you’re like “BUT WAIT! There’s more!” Goodness, it’s so hard to decide when you’re actually satisfied 😂
Track changes sounds so stressful! Also, I finally recognized a song from your writing playlist, that's a first. I love Wicked! So excited for this book!
I have such high expectations for this book after all these videos 😂 literally how can it be bad?! Christine thinks about every detail so much! It's gonna br awesome 😍😍
my tip to avoid the staring-starring situation i use the 'read aloud' option on Word to pick up on those little things my eyes miss. although may not work for a full novel, may be better for small section and papers haha
I've often had the weirdest thoughts while browsing YT. Like, WHY DON'T PEOPLE WEAR LIGHTS. Finally. Someone wearing lights in their video. 😊💡😊🌟😊💡😊🌟😊💡😊
So many things happened in this video whether it was the spider, tracking, defying gravity, or something else BUT I AM 👏🏾 HERE👏🏾 FOR👏🏾 IT! Bow down to the QUEEN (or should I say princess because of the tiara) HERSELF CHRISTINE RICCIO!!
Track Changes give me anxiety!!! XD My brain is like, "Can't. Write. Over-thinking. All. Suggestions." lol I'm so happy and excited for you. Spring 2019 will be here in no time!
Your writing videos are so inspiring! Also, congratulations on meeting your deadline! I'm counting down the days until I can get my hands on Again, But Better... 😊
Do you have any videos on how you got into writing and what that journey was/ is like? Especially for a potential aspiring writer like myself. Not sure if that’s something I want to do but often time I wonder if I should and have no idea what that journey or decisioning process looks like.
😂 I’ve seen all of your writing videos 💻 this is one of my favorites 😀 I felt the stress and excitement 😖🤪 and completely understand 🤓 You keep me motivated
I can't wait to buy Again, But Better ahhhh!! It will be so exciting to see your book in my local Australian bookstore :') I'm still hoping that you'll be selling signed copies as well though ^^
I wrote a 450 page novel. The first time, and each time thereafter at page 450, I realized that I was a much better writer than I was at page one. This created a monster in me, I didn’t want to go back to page 1 and do another complete rewrite. But the monster knew I could improve my story, at least I could improve the writing. Reluctant but determined I went back to page one. And finally,,, probably the fifteenth rewrite, at page 450, I and the monster made peace, we knew I could do no better, the manuscript was polished, more polishing would dull the edges. Finished, satisfied, tired I fell asleep and dreamed about Alphabet soup.
You can make the little distracting red and gold marks invisible while you use track changes. I’ve done it in Word 2016 and Pages for Mac. I mean, too late now but there’s some info for next time :)
Does anyone in your book release a breath they didn’t know they were holding?
I hope not
Molly Richard Oh god 😂.... But I love that series!!
I don’t know why but I feel like a proud mother bird seeing her baby fly for the first time and the funny thing is that I’m younger than you
Guys imagine the young readers who are going to discover Christine through her book and come back to watch these. ❤
Amelle Kyre I was thinking the same thing
Amelle Kyre im getting emotional
Thats exactly how i discovered her and why i am watching these right now :D
"Do you accept these changes from the author?'
I AM THE AUTHOR
"I dont know math right now" me always , everyday of my life, forever.
Tori M. I RELATE
This is me. And I'm an accountant...
*literally drops everyhing to watch Christine's new video* AHHH THESE ARE MY FAVORITE VIDEOS YOU INSPIRE ME SO MUCH TO KEEP WRITING
TheBookPrincess MEEEE
same, I feel so inspired after watching her writing videos and then instantly go write! Christine's the best ^_^
Bookish Hamster yup she's the best!

Oh my gosh I'm so glad to hear this XD
That defying gravity was a wild ride 😂😂
If you are bothered by the colors that come with track changes you can choose to view the final markup while you write (the is a drop down menu next to the track changes botton). :)
I am soooo pumped for this book!
Also, I’m editing my mom’s book rn and I really relate to your hatred towards track changes 😂
“STARRING” lol
Isra Qadri this comment goes so perfectlu with your profile picture!
at least it wasn't assess vs asses like we had in some work documents 😂
*Wrapped in fairy lights*
*Wearing a crown*
*A light up banana in the background*
me - Love it.
Writing is hard. Best of luck Christine.
thanks =)
i love that you're keeping progress with your writing and sharing your journey with us!
Girl I’m not a fan of track changes either. It really bugs me that there are these little weird arrows and/or changed font color.
I wonder what little soul will discover Christine's channel through her book and just see all of these writing videos.
Christine, I love your writing videos so so much. Whenever I watch one, I get inspired to work on my own writing. Thanks so much for making them! :)
yay, i'm so happy to hear that, thank you ! =D
Seeing how excited Christine is for this book is so inspiring my god, just like the end of Defying Gravity. That belting of the note/crying of emotions/smiling of pride holy crap
It’s gonna be so cool for people who read your book to be able to watch these videos and see the creation process 😩😩
Every time I can’t believe there is a new part because it means another month has past. I love the banana in the background ❤️
Wow, publishing a book is so much work, I applaud authors who publish a book every year, or even more than a book a year! Can't wait for more writing updates!!
I can’t tell you how excited I am for the book, congrats on making your deadline ❤️
This is one of my favorite video series on UA-cam. Seeing your writing journey has been so inspiring! Thanks for sharing and I’m SO EXCITED TO READ IT
Hay Hayley I FOUND YOU!
Xtine: she was staring and the ground
Me: SO THERE'S A SHE....???
😂
We need a synopsis.
like "AAH THEY STARRED AT EACH OTHER, ROMANCE"
I know the feeling when you think you’ve written one part for the last time, then you’re like “BUT WAIT! There’s more!” Goodness, it’s so hard to decide when you’re actually satisfied 😂
Braden E she has to write it again...but better
You are legit a queen in this video Christine. Cant wait for this book though! I have no patience but it will be well worth the wait
thank you!
Christine I’m so proud of you!!! This is crazy how much you’ve accomplished since 2016. I can’t wait to read your book 💙💙
You have good taste in dodie songs.
Christine actually introduced me to dodie when she mentioned 6/10 in one of her very first writing videos, which is so crazy
I love how spontaneous this is like the random oh mY GOD THERES A SPIDER ON THE CEILING
You know it’s going to be a good video when Christine is decked out in lights with a tiara
*WE'RE NOT BRUISED, THEY'RE JUST PARTY TATTOOS*
sorry but you started singing dodie and i had to contribute lol
Vanessa Hansmann Dodie is a queen
Paola Balderas YESS
Track changes sounds so stressful! Also, I finally recognized a song from your writing playlist, that's a first. I love Wicked! So excited for this book!
I AM SO CURIOUS ABOUT THE “DEAR READER...” PART OH MY GOD SO EXCITED
I have such high expectations for this book after all these videos 😂 literally how can it be bad?! Christine thinks about every detail so much! It's gonna br awesome 😍😍
I LITERALLY STOPPED MAKING MY LUNCH BECAUSE THIS SHOWED UP
IM SO HYPED
I also hate track changes. Thank you Christine. Representing the people ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
lolol
I can not wait for this book and to see what the cover will look like!!!!!!
Love your channel so much
thank you
omg the lights make you so majestic. PROUD OF YOOOUUU
Ah one day I’ll write the book that’s in my head. Can’t believe it’s been more than two years, I need this book like yesterday!
So proud of you Christine!! Can't wait to read this book someday. Loads of love from Pakistan 😘
Also I'm loving the extra videos other than Tuesday videos❤
My favorite writing song you’ve EVER SHARED!!
Well done on pulling through! We’re all super proud!! Good look!!
my tip to avoid the staring-starring situation i use the 'read aloud' option on Word to pick up on those little things my eyes miss.
although may not work for a full novel, may be better for small section and papers haha
I've often had the weirdest thoughts while browsing YT. Like, WHY DON'T PEOPLE WEAR LIGHTS.
Finally. Someone wearing lights in their video.
😊💡😊🌟😊💡😊🌟😊💡😊
Samantha June Lol!
omgggg the "staring"- "starring" panic was hilarious😂
This just really looks like how every writer's odyssey and struggles look like,just tired and fairy lights and rumbling and jusrnsksksososos 💕🙌🏻😂✨
Fantastic! Congrats. I’m so glad you’re updating us, keeping it real.

i'm so excited to read again, but better!!
I’m so excited for your book to come out!! I’m sure it’s gonna be sensational!!
0:58 me when I hand in my assignments at 4AM
Christine teaches us that even when we get to understand something we can still hate. Sometimes even more😭💯ughh her mind
I can’t wait for the book! Also so excited to get the full writing playlist!
Ahhh I love these videos so much! They make me want to get back to writing. Sooo excited to read your book!!!
So many things happened in this video whether it was the spider, tracking, defying gravity, or something else BUT I AM 👏🏾 HERE👏🏾 FOR👏🏾 IT! Bow down to the QUEEN (or should I say princess because of the tiara) HERSELF CHRISTINE RICCIO!!
honestly these videos inspire me so much to start writing.
YES! love when studying for finals, and Christine drops a video, so that I can watch on my breaks :D
Yay I love your look with the lights and the crown 💖
Track Changes give me anxiety!!! XD My brain is like, "Can't. Write. Over-thinking. All. Suggestions." lol
I'm so happy and excited for you. Spring 2019 will be here in no time!
The amount of energy you have after barely any sleep is amazing! Also, does your editor watch these videos by any chance?
Your writing videos are so inspiring! Also, congratulations on meeting your deadline! I'm counting down the days until I can get my hands on Again, But Better... 😊
Wicked. Saw it on Broadway years ago and love writing to it. 💕
I'm glad you finished your draft! I can't wait to read it when it comes out.

Party Tattoos is one of my favorites. I love Dodie, she is so talented.
I love your vids can't wait to read your book!!

As soon as your book comes out in preorder I am pressing that button.
The way you are dressed reminds me of one of the outfits Lizzie wore during the fashion show scene in The Lizzie McGuire Movie.
I AM SO EXCITED TO READ "Again, But Better"!!! this video was super interesting, I loved learning about track changes! 🖤
Christine wearing a tiara and covered in lights looks fabulous. 😂 ❤
Omg I've alvoided ever using staring or starring because of that problem. Also scared versus scarred
"i am calm- no i'm not" - my constant mood, all the time, since i exited the womb

Christine, I write books for fun (just as a hobby) and I FEEL your disdain for track changes
I really want you to succeed like you have worked sooo hard on this novel i cant wait to read it!!!!!!!
I love your banana! that sounded weird lol. I also love that you listen to Anna Nalick and I can't wait to read your book! 😁

I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY (you just gotta sing it)
Honestly though, so excited for you 💕💕
Girl you deserve that crown 👑❤️📚
CHRISTINE I LOVE YOU AND I LOVE DODIE BOTH SO MUCH AHHHH
I want to read so bad 😍 AND we get a dear the reader letter (probably) I'm hype
this whole video was one wild ride that I'd gladly jump on again lol! one does not simply use track changes xD
Omg. I lost it at STARRING!!!!!!! 😆😂🤣😭
These videos make me so happy. I always go on such a roller coaster ride with you. I'm stressed then I'm happy but overall, just so PROUD!!! :D
thank you
I've never been this early and I'M SO EXCITED FOR AGAIN, BUT BETTER AHH
I can’t wait to read this book!!
Dying at ‘starring’. My first thought, ‘do it again, but better’. Sorry. 😂
Who else is just DYING to get there hands on this book!
This just made my day thank you for being a chirpy sleepy writer
