hey everybody I'm so excited about this video because I have been tagged by my
dear friend Bethany Atazadeh in the AuthorTube Newbie Tag since I have just
started my author to channel and you guys were gonna just have some tea here
and just chat a little bit more about me as a writer and what you can expect on
my AuthorTube channel if you end up enjoying this more informal chat with me
let me know by giving this video a like so I know to do more of them and if
you're an AuthorTuber definitely make sure you watch till the end as I will be
tagging some of you to do this tag next okay so first question is how did you
find out about authortube and this is really interesting because while I was
also writing I was also into a bullet journaling and before I even found out
about authortube I was like binge watching boho berry and a bunch of other
people that do bullet journaling videos anybody else
a bullet journal let me know in the comments but um
boho berry actually did a whole series on her experience doing NaNoWriMo by
using her bullet journal and I was like what is this and then through that I
actually started getting video suggestions to watch Kristin Martin and
Kim chance and I was like there's a whole world of authors on YouTube how
did I not know this so that was the beginning and then after a while I
actually started getting suggestions for my friend Bethenny's videos which we
connected in college through music and now all of a sudden I start seeing her
on YouTube talking about her book that she published and I was like so I was
like super proud of her and super excited for her and she just turned that
all around and just asked me how I was doing and if I was writing anything and
totally encouraged me to start my author platform which I did in January all
thanks to her and connected with so many awesome people on Instagram and loved
the community and I was just sharing the little I knew and my experiences and
getting other writers talking doing some live streams and people were like why
are you not on author tube you should have an all youtube channel and so
eventually I built up the courage and felt like I had enough to share and so
hear you on over to okay so the second question says what genre do you
and right now I am writing a wife fantasy novel and I think I'm probably
going to stick to fantasy for a while even though I also really love sci-fi
but I honestly I just don't think I'm smart enough I would totally write stuff
and people would be like that's not correct so I am sticking with fantasy
right now I love creating worlds and world building and just the whole
element of believing that there's more than meets the eye
but I've also found out along the way that fantasy is not as easy as you would
think you think that oh yeah I get to create my own world of my own roles and
so this will be really easy and nobody can get on me about doing something
wrong but you need to be consistent with your own world and you need to create
everything from scratch so that's been super fun but just a lot more than I
think a lot of people realize question number three says what is your preferred
writing tense point of view and category of story meaning children's why a and an
adult etc obviously already said that I'm gonna be doing Y a but as far as my
favorite writing tense I think I'm definitely most comfortable in past
tense but I also just finished children of blood and bone just last month and it
was all in present and I've never read a book that did present tense so well in
the sense that it wasn't distracting to me and was just so in your face and so
riveting and so I might play around with that that'd be fun as far as
point-of-view goes I definitely liked first and third person I've been writing
my current work in progress in third person but have sort of been wanting to
try some of it in first and I've also been seeing a lot of writers writing
their books from multiple points of view which is also really fun and so there
might be summary writing going on all right number four asks are you a plotter
a dancer or a poll answer which is sort of a combo of both and I am definitely a
plotter by nature I mean look at my writers Facebook group that's called
plotter life writers yeah so much fun plotting but I have realized that
there comes a point that I just need to pants a little bit I just need to get my
head out of my outline and just start writing and certain things definitely
get fixed or get clarified as I'm just pantsing it so to all you cancers out
there I am doing a little of that question number five is are you
self-published published or yet to be published and I am yet to be published I
am still in the drafting process but I think once I get to the publishing stage
I'm definitely going to try to go the traditional publishing route and if I
keep getting feedback that the book is good but there's just no one that's
interested in that kind of book at the time and it just takes a while I
definitely have an entrepreneurial spirit and I think I'd really enjoy
self-publishing as well so we'll see number six is a little bit harder for me
it says what publishing company literary agent and/or printing company are you
represented by or use if you're not published yeah what is your dream
publishing house or your literary agent and so in short I don't have a dream
publishing house yet or an agent because I'm still pretty far away from that
point but I'm definitely doing research and open to suggestions especially those
that you might know of that's really specialize in why fantasy so let me know
okay let's see number seven says what author Tube related videos can we expect
to find on your channel I'd say definitely expect some live chats I love
going live I love making these videos but I also love interacting with you
guys in real time or in the comments and so yeah if you follow me on Instagram
again you'll see me go live like at least once a week just because I love
interacting and I love sharing advice both ways and I think that would just be
really fun to do here on YouTube as well so whether that's doing a challenge or
answering questions or doing a word sprint if that's at all interesting to
you guys let me know in the comments and I will definitely schedule those in
speaking of going live if you have ever thought about going live especially on
Instagram I just came out with a video about how I go live and how I
grown my following so much by doing it on a frequent basis and using a certain
strategy to do that so if that's interesting to you definitely check out
that video that will definitely help you build more community in the spirit of me
loving community as well I'm definitely looking forward to doing more collabs
which I just did one with hopeful happenings and you guys all my offer to
friends I want to do collabs with you all because you're amazing
I think that'd be so much fun and I also love all of these tags and I would love
to start some of my own challenges one thing that I'm going to invite you
to right now is to do camp NaNoWriMo with me because in our Facebook group
we're gonna be hosting our own cabin that has no limit to how many people can
join because it's a Facebook group and I just think that's gonna be a lot of fun
so if you guys need a cabin to belong to and want the challenge of trying to do
camp NaNoWriMo definitely check out in the description the link to my facebook
group will be there so while I'll definitely do writing advice videos and
marketing advice videos as I'm finding out more and more about that and loving
that and even publishing when I get and basically I want to share all the things
as I learn more I just have this teachers spirit that I just want to pass
everything on and see people succeed hence why I also want to do these videos
that are going to invite you into more of a writing community and get support
and be able to reach your reading goals so I hope that sounds good to you and if
it does and you haven't already subscribed I hope you will so that you
don't miss anything okay let's keep moving cuz they're like six more
questions here okay number eight asks when did you start
writing so I've been in love with the written word and the art of storytelling
and making up stories ever since I can remember particularly when I was little
I started to love to sing and I would just make up songs that would be like
mom I think he was song and like just make up something and if you look at my
earlier songs there were all stories they all had this storyline and so even
when I went to school and was an English class or creative writing I would just
love that fast forwarding a little bit to like more middle school and high
school time my friend Megan actually then got me into fanfiction and
role-playing game sites and I actually started my own RPG site centered around
superheroes and I love superheroes by the way anybody else but yeah so that
was super fun at some point you have to sort of decide
what is gonna be your focus in life and for me it was definitely music at that
point and so writing sort of went on the back burner which I'm a little sad about
but in the last couple years I've really gotten back into it I've taken some
writing courses got involved with the writing community which I love and so
now I'm like in this place where I really want to finish a full-length
novel and publish and really become an author as more of a career so that's
been really cool and Wow that question was supposed to be when did you start
writing I sort of just gave you my whole story so I hope that's okay
all right number nine what was the first story you ever wrote I'm figuring this
is asking more about like the first real story novelist kind of thing I actually
finished and it's actually funny because the story that comes to mind is the very
very early never should see the light of day version of the story that I'm
working on right now I finished it in like late middle school maybe it was
7,000 words it was cliche and just very basic but it had this spark of an idea
that I'm loving sort of transforming and building on and basically it was called
adventures in Gwendolyn and followed a group of teenage faeries that took it
upon themselves to go on a mission through the fairy world to find the cure
of a terrible disease that was about to kill the fairy queen now fast-forward
about 15 years and the story has definitely transformed so much and the
pitch currently sounds like this as an impending class war threatens to tear
falen apart five fairy younglings are forced to represent their races in a
competition for ultimate rule that will determine the fate of their world a
princess a mute a merman a blind and a pirate I'd love to know what you guys
think about that let me know in the comments but let's move on to number 10
so this question asks what authors have inspired your writing the most and I'm
just gonna mention two for the sake of time that really got me excited about
taking writing seriously after reading their books Suzanne Collins and her
hunger games series I actually listened to all of her books on audiobook as I
used to drive like eight hours of time to Buffalo back and forth and yeah I
just remember thing out loud and crying out loud and
just being so riveted by the characters in the world as I was driving and that
got me just so excited to actually write my own book and probably it's probably
gonna be a series I also want to shout out Christian cash or and her Graceling
series because that was another book that I picked up in the last few years
that I just devoured and loved her characters in her world and her writing
style and it just helped me get back into my love of fantasy again so thank
you Kristin and Suzanne if you guys have ever watched this you guys have been
such inspirations to me okay we're on number eleven which says do you schedule
your writing sessions or simply get writing whenever you can find the time
um my schedule has been very all over the place and although I'm definitely a
person of routine I have not gotten my routine together people the thing that
has been helping me is scheduling again writing sprints word sprints with
especially with friends on Instagram and so that has been amazing and hopefully I
will get my act together and get a writing schedule down and with camp
NaNoWriMo that's something that I will start instituting on the daily question
number 12 says do you type on a computer typewriter write everything out by hand
oh gosh no oh or use a blend of those and where do you write in general so I
definitely use my computer so much typing out the whole story and also
plotting I've been organizing a lot through Evernote and actually with the
handwriting sometimes I definitely need to like sort
of figure out like basic ideas handwriting but I definitely can't like
write the whole story up that just would give me terrible hand cramps so
definitely the computer and then I'm in my office when I write a lot now but
sometimes I'm on the couch and there's actually this really super cute tea shop
that I just showed on my Instagram stories that I definitely need to go
back and visit again and write up because it's super cute and number
thirteen we did it it says what are you most looking forward to now that you're
a part of author - gosh I just really want to be as much of an inspiration to
other writers as other author tubers have been an inspiration to me because
it's really made a huge difference I want to share everything I
and that I'm learning I'm on a chronicle my journey and like I've said again and
again I just love meeting other writers and talking about writing so I'm so
excited to meet more of you talk with you guys in the comments clad with other
author tubers and yeah I just love this community I'm so blessed to be able to
start the channel and as I talk about meeting other writers I'm so excited to
