  • OPEN ME!: It's finally time to get back to work on my book projects, particularly Across the Pond 4, which really needs to be published this summer. In this vlog, I catch up in my planner, open Scrivener up for the first time in almost two months, create a task list for all the final publishing tasks, and start organizing other admin tasks I want to do this summer. It was a very productive day but there was also plenty of resting as well. And stay tuned to the end for a special guest who has a surprise announcement! I hope you enjoy! :) xx

    I remember borders too, there was one in my state. I remember reading my chick lit phase and am familiar with some of those authors. I read a couple of Jill Mansell, Trisha Ashley, Monica McInerney and want to read Marian Keyes. More recently Holly Black (i think her name is) writes lovely cozy romance books too, though not all of them. And a couple of Katie Fforde's. I'm currently obsessed with cozy mysteries but there are so many books on my wish list I want to get to ready but haven't got around to yet. Love your jumper!📖📝

    Love to be back with writing stuff! Best of luck with all your plans, just remember to be gentle with yourself, don't push too hard! I'm gonna be taking summer easy because I'm going back as a student in September after a few years and want to make sure I've rested and prepared the best I can for that, but I'd like to be working a bit on an old project here and there. It'll mostly be making stuff for myself, though, which I'm looking forward to because I feel like it's not something a lot of us creative types tend to do once we get to the stage where we're sharing stuff, it just all becomes something to share, you know?
    Lovely to hear Tamzin's coming back to UA-cam, will go check that out now XD Hope you're having a wonderful day ^^ ✍💻

      Definitely trying to put rest first as the priority and not push myself. I need to rest as much as possible before the semester starts in August. Good luck starting back as a student in September! So exciting! :)

    Omg I miss Borders!! It was what I did on my weekends in college. I would walk there, do my homework and then take the streetcar back in New Orleans. That was my Saturday. :)

      @@AndreaJSeverson I liked it more than Barnes & Noble but we just didn’t have Barnes close by. Maybe that’s why…but it had a nice vibe. Also loved all the music they had. Found a lot of favorite albums there. 😃

    💻 So happy Tamzin's back on UA-cam (not surprised)! Gonna check it out as soon as I leave my obligatory comment:) Love those early morning walks, Andrea! My neighbourhood isn't as visually appealing as yours but I'm hoping Mom and I can get active again.
    I've been working on 3 projects: Creepy MG short story collection (submitting to an editor) and 2 YA fantasies. So pumped for July and yeah, not doing Nano - Doing Andrea's No-Fuss-But-Words-Are-A-Must instead :P

    Hello there sunshine! Guess who?!
    I’ve finally gotten back to enjoying vlogs on UA-cam and came looking for yours. So excited for Book 4 of Across the Pond, you have no idea haha
    I’ve binged a few videos and ‘liked’ of course, but thought I’d leave a little comment saying it’s so wonderful to see your vlogs and ‘catch up’.
    🤗
    Ps. I’m watching in the wackiest order, don’t judge 🤣
    Pps. Adding emojis! ✍️ 📝 💻

      OMG HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!! I've missed you friend! Glad you're backing watching vlogs on YT and that you came to find me again. I can't wait for you to be able to read ATP4. :)
      And omg, no judgements for the order you're watching it, but let me know when you watch the England vlogs, I think you'll enjoy those.
      PS. I need to message you properly in a DM on LinkedIn or something so we can catch up.

    Do you or have you ever put a teaser chapter of your next book in a current book.

    • @AndreaJSeverson
      @AndreaJSeverson  2 місяці тому +1

      I don't do full chapters because I never have the next one ready in time and I don't go back and update my back matter once a book is published (even though I should). As a reader I never read bonus chapters anyway.
