Great stuff on reaching 10k in just 3 days! Came across your channel a few days ago and made the commitment to use this month as motivation to finish scripts to send off to film festivals next year. Your content has been great for me so thanks a million!
Brand new to your channel, this is the first of your videos I have ever seen, but I already love it. 😍 I am also a writer doing NaNo in Utah, yay for the Utah club! Keep being awesome, I look forward to future videos.
Yayyy! I'm so happy for you reaching 10k!! And in 3 DAYS! That's amazing!! :D I actually haven't started Nano but will do today because I was editing a novel-in-verse story.
this is the first time i'm posting a comment here, and I got to say how much I'm in love w your channel! I accidentally found your video where you read through the first draft of D.E. and since then I can't stop watching! You're so so much a inspiration for me! I'm currently writhing the first draft of my first book, (and it's supposed to be) the first of a trilogy. and, getting through the way has been so much easier after I knew you! thanks for that, and I really hope I can get to read your books someday soon. ♥♥kisses from Brazil♥♥
Congrats on hitting 10k in 3 Days. Completely jealous right now. Okay, so it is decided. I'm going to hit 20k by day 6. Why I just decided this I have no clue, but you reaching 10k in 3 days is very exciting and inspiring. So, I have 13,602 words to hit 20k. This breaks down to 4534 words each today to hit 20k. Game On. Now if I can only get my dang Prologue done. It was only supposed to be 1350 words... I'm bad at predicting scene length. Oh well. Great video. Keep up the momentum.
@@madisonstone3248 I hit 10k yesterday. So, it's going well. I got distracted by Eternals movie, but now I'm gearing up to crank out my words for today.
WOOOOOW!! Congratulations on your 10K!! :D :D I'm starting NaNo very late, hopefully tomorrow (Saturday)! I'll see how it goes :D I'm still optimistic because I often hit 4K in one day when I'm super in flow. Keep on rocking this NaNoWriMo Sara!!
I've had a slow start to nano this year. However despite this I have replotted this book 4 times and it's finally going down a storyline I like so even though I'm having a slow start I've still written the most this nano and I took a week off of vacay time around Thanksgiving to just nonstop work on my novel.
What an excellent start! The chair spinning was hilarious. Do you feel that you have hit your stride with the book now, or are there still some kinks to iron out?
Even though this video is from last year. Good morning, Sara! Hope you're enjoying Camp NaNo so far, and have done alot of writing to your story? "Always Think positive," is what I always tell myself. Have a wonderful day!
Congrats on such a great start!! I've had the same quotation problem lately?? The amount of times I'll forget to put in quotations is just...weird. Excited for all the writing vlogs this month!
Congrats again! It was interesting/weird watching the clips back, because my brain just went "Wait, that's not the right angle/background for that memory." And interesting thing bouncing between softwares! As far as progress this month, it's... Okay x) I keep trying to remind myself that I always go slow at the beginnings of months... Annoying but true. Had to take last night (and subsequently this afternoon) as a mental break from my story... but hopefully can get into stuff again later this evening.
Wow! Fantastic! I love this idea. I need to do a 10k day. Not sure when that would be but it's all in the name of progress. I'd love to do a writing vlog but I don't get loads of writing time and my life is pretty boring. So, I guess my vlog would just be mostly eating, talking, and chores with some writing. It flows when it flows. I had no luck on day 3. Like none.
OMG I was feeling so much anxiety the first like two or three days but now I’m finally starting to get over that lol hopefully I can get caught up because I want to write the first in my Paranormal romance series
Cloud-based software? That immediately sounds sus. Nevertheless, I wish you luck. Your advice to go easy on myself has been working out so far. The outline is running smooth in part because half the ideas I'm using have been sitting around, ready to be used, since I was 12 years old. Outros do lend themselves to mess, don't they.
😂 thank you!! Makeup and my routine lol, my body is used to being awake and being creative at two. You should see me before noon though, you'd get why I look so good at 2
You have to be careful when setting a goal to writing 10k words for your new book , because you might not get all your ideas in one go, it may take weeks. If you do then you'll end up just writing and writing thousands of words that make no sense. Here's some tips. Who's your main character what's their main goal in the story. In star wars skywalker wants to save a princess. Who's the opposition, darth vader doesn't want the princess saved and wants skywalker to come to the dark side. Notice here the opposition( antagonist) has a goal in the story as well.
Yes, I did do motivation planning for the story before I started writing it. If the story wasn’t flowing, I wouldn’t have done 10k in 3 days. I don’t force my words
I hit 10k today! A huge motivator is just seeing my word count go up!
Congratulations!! That’s awesome!
First of all, 10k in three days is insane, well done!
Second of all, those vegan pancakes looked incredible
Thank you so much!!
The vegan pancakes were so delicious :)
Good luck and happy writing!
I'm super clumsy, so seeing your coffee right next to your laptop in the cafe made me shudder haha.
Amazing progress!
😂 someone else said the same thing! I was careful, but I will be even more careful in the future! And thank you!!
Omg that view of the mountains over the pond is just so insanely beautiful 🧡🥰
It really is!
Great stuff on reaching 10k in just 3 days!

Congrats on hitting 10k! Your vlogs are always super inspiring. I’ll be be hitting 10k today and I’m so proud of myself!!

Congratulations, 10k in three days is completely wild! Good luck with the next 10k!
Thank you so much!! I'm thrilled!
Woohoo!!! Congrats on 10K!

Thank you! There are definitely some major kinks to iron out with it but I'm enjoying the process!
Ah, love it Sara! Congrats on hitting your goal!! 🎉
Thank you!! 😊
congrats!! glad to see you're bringing back the dance 😂😂
Thank you!

@@SaraLubratt Good morning and thank you, Sara!

Ok that's so weird! But yeah, I'm not sure what it is, but quotations have just been so tricky recently!
Congratulations! That's inspiring.
Thank you so much!
Wow, way to go, Tris!!! I mean, Sara. 😆😁
😂 thank you!!
First off, amazing job! Such a boss!
Second... that full coffee mug next to your laptop was giving me some serious anxiety :D
Thank you so much! 😂 don't worry, I was being very careful! But yes, it was definitely too full
Congrats again! It was interesting/weird watching the clips back, because my brain just went "Wait, that's not the right angle/background for that memory." And interesting thing bouncing between softwares!

Super late response on my part but thank you for consistently commenting on my channel. I really appreciate it and it doesn't go unnoticed :)
@@SaraLubratt You're welcome! I try.
Wow! Fantastic! I love this idea. I need to do a 10k day. Not sure when that would be but it's all in the name of progress.

10k days scare me and I'm in awe and have so much respect for those who can do them!!
@@SaraLubratt Yeah. They scare me too. I've never attempted one before.
OMG I was feeling so much anxiety the first like two or three days but now I’m finally starting to get over that lol hopefully I can get caught up because I want to write the first in my Paranormal romance series
That would be awesome! Don't think of it as catching up, any work done is progress. Could you frame it to yourself like that?
@@SaraLubratt very true! Thanks
Cloud-based software? That immediately sounds sus. Nevertheless, I wish you luck.
Your advice to go easy on myself has been working out so far. The outline is running smooth in part because half the ideas I'm using have been sitting around, ready to be used, since I was 12 years old.
Outros do lend themselves to mess, don't they.
I'm glad you've been able to go easy on yourself!
Hi Sara! Great to hear it's working out so well, with the writing rate. What writing program do you use? Scrivener? Word?
As talked about in the beginning and end of this video, I've been switching back and forth between BookFlow and Word
@@SaraLubratt Note to self: not 'listening' to NaNoWriMo videos whilst housekeeping :)
Girl..... HOW do you look so good at 2am???
😂 thank you!! Makeup and my routine lol, my body is used to being awake and being creative at two. You should see me before noon though, you'd get why I look so good at 2
that is amazing ı just wrote 6 k world. ı am happy for you ı am proud of you
Nice!
i want to be friends with all of you so bad, I need writing buddies! day 4 and I'm just over 13,000 words! you are motivating!
Thank you so much! And 13k?? That's amazing!
What writing software do you use for your first drafts?
For this one, as mentioned in this video, I’m switching between bookflow and Word :)
How many books have you written so far?
This is book #5. Only two have made it past the first draft so far but there will be plenty of time for moving forward in the future!
