hey, just wanted to say how your vids really help me. I'm currently writing an essay for my Masters and honestly feel like throwing my laptop in the bin 🙃 but we gotta keep going and not let the imposter syndrome win! ❤
Just an English Lit undergrad here and it’s nice to hear someone work through their writing process and not “feel smart”. Often as I write papers or even discussion posts I doubt if my writing and thinking is smart and have always wondered if others feel that way!
I really enjoy how you share your thought and writing process. It's so helpful. And the body thing - you're so right! I have thought so many times about vlogging or making some kind of videos but I'm so aware of everything about my face and body that I'm unhappy with that I shut that door every time.
I love the music you used this time ❤ It gave me a bit of summer vibes and emphasised a happy-go-lucky nature that really elevated my mood and helped to motivate me work on my master thesis. Even if life is not always easy, there are also beautiful moments that you can enjoy 😊
Just an idea! A blog is written communication and can be revised before posting. A vlog is moving and cannot be as meticulously edited. The movement , expression and emphasis is much more revealing than a written communication. For example, it does not matter what you do with your hands when doing a blog. The same applies to Facebook as to blogs. No one can see your expression when you are posting. I am sure you already thought of these things. I love your work.

it might help, but whenever I need to edit my work, and I feel the ick of going back and reading it, I try listening to it; it makes the process much easier. I use speechify.
I started watching your vlogs when I started my grad school journey and kind of fell away from the grad student youtube space for a while, but I'm back! As a PhD student also researching social media, I love hearing about your dissertation and I think it's such an important and fascinating topic. Do you have any of your other writing published online for us curious minds to see (or cite? hehe) congrats on the submission!
Thank you so much! I have a couple pieces available online!
1. This piece is about navigating grad school as a woman (using feminist strategies) xchanges.org/doing-it-herself-15-1
2. This is a book review of an edited collection I adore! compositionforum.com/issue/52/fischer-nicolas-review.php
This is my favorite vlog of yours so far! ✨
I've just started writing my dissertation and it is so helpful to follow your journey as well, makes me feel I'm not alone!
Congrats on the submission! We're cheering for you!
Sarah you are so so sooooooo inspiring for me and I really really enjoyed watching today's vlog a lot you are my truly truly inspiration and I wish you have a wonderful weekend😭🥹💓💓
Always enjoy your videos, Sarah. You got this--keep going! Also, if you haven't before, check out Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott. Lots of helpful wisdom in there about the anguish of writing and the necessity of shitty first drafts!
Another productive vlog to inspire me🎉🎉😊 I clicked so fast, Imma shower 🚿 first then come for this,, also amazing intro song ,,,very mood setting...😊
I love your vlogs. They are my comfort place for when I'm working on my PhD. Feels like we're hanging out haha. Sounds sad, but I live four hours away from my campus and have mainly done my PhD alone, so it's nice to feel like I have someone else to connect to. I'd love to try understand how American PhD's work. You said you're in your 6th or 7th year? In the UK they only last three years, unless you're doing it part time? xx
PhD's in English in the US typically take at least 5 years! Since I am completing a combined master's/phd, my journey will be 7 years
While you were wondering what the specific difference between Facebook and YT vlogs might be, I was reminded that TH-cam's tagline is "Broadcast yourself". Idk if that helps in any way, but maybe there's something there about voluntarily exposing yourself to anyone and everyone and how that relates to hyper awareness...? Also, does the fact that in video we're showing ourselves 3 dimensionally and often our own thoughts have anything to do with it...?
Anyways, I always enjoy your research talks! ❤

@@SarahFischerVlogs yay good luck!!
Girl, your research seems to be so inextricably linked with personal trauma, be gentle with yourself during this writing process!
Also, very interesting stuff on the self awareness vs hyper self awareness differences on Facebook and TH-cam! I wonder if you can conceptualize the phenomenon on TH-cam as a multiple of the phenomenon on Facebook, especially since a video can be represented as 24 photos produced in a second, so it feels like when you're on TH-cam, you're performing what you're performing on Facebook, but 24 times a second. Just a thought!
To me, the main difference between selfies and videos are movement and spontaneity. In videos, you move, we see and hear you talking, which brings you to life. As a still medium, photography freezes one instant in time.
