Learn a little bit more about me, the book I'm writing, and my publishing dreams! AuthorTube channels mentioned: Hannah Grace Fletcher @hgfwrites Ana Neu @ananeu
Welcome to Authortube!!! 🫶 I also have a small-ish AuthorTube channel that I'm hoping to grow, and I'm working on a YA fantasy novel!! I'm so excited to see where your journey takes you!
You taught me a new word: Authortube. I know about booktube, so I probably should have just assumed authortube would be a thing. 😂 I don't think I'm ready to make author videos yet, but I'm excited to see where you go with your channel. At 4:00 you say you don't have a community to market your books to. But honestly, you're taking an important step by posting these videos. If I could offer one bit of advice, I'd say to just keep practicing in public. To me that means stay visible by posting at a comfortable pace, don't disappear even when you're deep into a draft that's really resisting you, and keep making new friends. If you do that, you'll definitely build a community. (In the past, I would build up multiple audiences and then totally disappear because I would lose all confidence in my writing.) Sorry this comment is like 900 pages long...
You have no idea how happy I was to see a comment this long! If you ever want to make author videos, I say go for it! That's what I did at least :) Thank you for your advice! I'll for sure keep posting. I love the community I'm in and how youtube motivates me to become a better version of myself. Same goes for you! Stick to your passion, even if that means pushing through a hard time when the draft isnt cooperating. Thank you for your kind words Brandon! Made my night!
Thank you so much! I've actually been filming one all this week, so I'm hoping to have it up sometime this weekend ;) And I have a good amount of videos planned for the future, once I get around to filming them! Glad you're enjoying them so far! :D
