Welcome back~ Was beginning to get a little worried that the job and the challenge had really overwhelmed you. Glad to see you back in action! (Also, congrats on the new job!!! Having worked a job before where I had the mornings off, and then worked the afternoon/evening, I can say that having the mornings to yourself before work is such a game changer.) Also, also, that little anecdote about changing your character's age was so relatable and so, so funny. I'm glad that you were able to stay (relatively) positive after that. Were it me, I would've taken a drag from my metaphorical cigarette. (I don't actually smoke. 🤢)
Haha I was only slightttlyyy overwhelmed, but luckily I have a good relationship with balance. Thanks for your kind words and I'm so excited to have mornings off! 🥰❤️ Lol I really did drag a metaphorical cigarette after (I also don't smoke) because my brain 😅🙃 Thanks for being here ❤️
congrats on the new job! i hope it treats you and your writing well, it definitely helps. I love the talk about anything related to planing since i'm short story writer i'm always plannig. I think planning is as fascinating as the process of writing it self and definitely necessary to avoid geting lost.
Planning is SUCH a fascinating part of the process. I wish I could me more spoiler heavy and just show everything lol. I love chatting about how I do things and hearing from others about their process. Thanks for being here ❤️
5:57 That was me cleaning my bathroom! ❤ It was the coziest I've ever been in there 😂 You caught me in the middle of a writing sprint this time (not that I'm complaining! So so so many updates, congrats on getting two jobs (🎉!!) and I hope you're giving yourself grace to manuever them! Also, the Story Bible is such a great idea! Lowkey kealous that I didn't make one before starting this draft 😅
🤣🤣 I'm so glad! I'll forever think of you when I say get cozy! And I hope your writing went well! Thank you for the reminder to give myself grace 🥰 And you can start one anytime! I definitely will only make them as I write and not before starting my projects. It would be too overwhelming and I use them to track information for easy reference. Thanks for being here 🥰
@meganbrush I'm honored lol 😂❤️ It wasn't too shabby. I'm in the honeymoon phase because I just started, so the words are coming pretty easily! Ohh, I'll keep that in mind. If I hit a roadblock up ahead, I'll probably sit myself down and work on the Story Bible! 🩷😌 Thanks again!
Personally, I CANNOT wait to one day go through this entire book bible … and happy to contribute details for the future compilation lololol … alsooooo CONGRATULATIONS on the dream job!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Congratulations on the job! That teasing of your story bible was brutal. Maybe when you get the book out you could do a deep dive on how it looks. Mine is currently in a bound notebook but I did find out quite quickly it's not ideal. Notion or some other digital tool probably works better, because you can insert information where you want. I might try a ring system the next time I do a book bible. This way I can have the flexibility of a digital system but still have a physical item to reference. And I do think it's good you were so forthcoming that your writing plans changed for a bit because that's just how writing processes work. They shift and change depending on your life and what is happening in the project itself.
I was almost thinking of maybe making a fake one? Gah I don't know! But yes, once the book is out I might do a sneaky live to show you. And thank you! I think being honest is the best way to show how imperfect the creative process is! Thanks for watching and commenting 🥰
I've been struggling to figure out how to fit writing into my suddenly very busy schedule, so this video was really motivating! Also, love the story bible idea. I'm currently working on draft 2 of my high fantasy novel and it's been difficult to keep track of all the details. I think I'll try making a story bible!
It's such a good little resource to keep track of everything. Yay! Im glad you found this video. Hopefully you can fit in some writing. Thanks for being here 🥰
