As a fellow Canadian fantasy writer hoping to find an agent in the spring, your channel is always such an inspiration. Your struggles with writing are so relatable and I'm so grateful for yourself and other authortubers to bring what feels like a very isolating line of work into a community we can all be a part of. I've never commented but thanks Kris! You are always my favourite authortuber to watch
Ahhhh so excited for you and for Local Heavens to come out! Thank you for all the writing updates 🫶 as someone who is currently wanting to getting traditionally published, your journey is such an inspiration 💕
this is so exciting!! i wish i had been around authortube and found you when you were early on in your local heavens journey. i'll def be picking up a copy next year
9:42 you said the plaza hotel and I immediately thought the excitement was for eloise not gatsby 💀💀 but glad you had a great time and hooray to only five pages!
kris you are such an inspiration!! i wish i got to meet up with you in NYC :') so happy for all your successes and i can't wait to hold LH in my hands :)
Congratulations on turning in your dev edit! And good luck with line and copy edits! Those are a pain. Also, why is Clemmie so cute? I love her! 😻 Looks like you had a great NY trip! Celine is so fun! Always good to have bestie time! Seems like you both had a blast! 😍 Also, next time you go to NY (or if you ever come my way to SoCal), I would recommend checking out The Ripped Bodice, a romance bookstore. It’s my favorite indie bookstore! There’s one in Brooklyn, NY, and one in LA. I haven’t been to the NY location yet, but the LA one is so cool! They had copies of my book (I’m in a traditionally published anthology), so I got to go up and sign a few copies earlier this year, but I’ve actually been ordering from them for years. I actually asked for a gift card as a PhD graduation gift last year. Although they are a romance bookstore, they carry a lot of science fiction and fantasy books, so they might stock yours! Check it out! Congratulations on your journey! Can’t wait to preorder LOCAL HEAVENS! 🥳💜
Kris I'm the same, I like to keep the plot moving and couldn't care less about exposition and descriptions😅😭 so I totally would've made the same call☺️

Almost crying at the plaza hotel because it ties to your book (+The Great Gatsby ofc) is so real
