idk why watching you remove these sticky notes is making me feel like i'm making progress of my own lol but i love how you mentioned that your goal is not a certain end date but it is a certain version of the book! such a good reminder 🍁
🍂 loved hearing your thoughts on the revision process. i can very much relate to being a bit afraid to change major parts of a project, but you're absolutely right, that's how you get the book to be the best version it can be. good luck with your second draft 🧡🍁
I just printed out my manuscript and I'm going to start marking it up and editing soon! Your videos have seriously been so encouraging and make me excited to start my own editing. Love seeing your sticky note process and creating the why and critiques and all the processes!! I definitely understand the nerves of sending your work to a new reader. It's a very big step and it makes sense that there are so many mixed emotions.
@@BonnieNicoleWrites Thank you! This comment truly means so much! I am so glad you have been inspired by the videos. Best of luck to you on your project!!
watching this to procrastinate on annoying edits on my never-going-to-be-published wip haha great vid as always! and i totally get the weirdness of sharing the story with others when the urge is to overexplain literally every single choice instead of letting it be read 🍂
I am currently 30,000 words into draft one of my memoir. Thanks for sharing your revision process! It’s giving me ideas about how I want to approach my revisions.😊Happy Fall!🍂
I’m finishing my first draft in the next couple weeks (hopefully 😅) and this vlog made me so excited to start revisions!! I love seeing everything come together
Excited to watch this one! I was working on Draft 4 of my romance novel, but felt so burned out. Started a new WIP, which is a fantasy one. I am excited to work on something new and create a whole world from scratch. However currently looking for some motivation to get on up and work haha, so hopefully your video can help with that ❤ Good luck with draft 2 of your debut novel, you've got this 😊
😂 The beginning made me laugh! The sun is always in our eyes as soon as we back out of the driveway and head to school drop-off in the morning. My son always knows what I'm then going to sing: "Bliiiiinded by the light..." then followed by a bunch of non-sense words because I don't know the rest of the chorus, lol!
🍂I felt everything you were saying while you were ‘rambling’ 😂 I’m 85k into my rough draft of my Romantasy and hoping to finish up by mid October. As I’ve gone I’ve kept a little list of anything that I’ve decided to add, change, or take out so that I don’t stop and go back to do it now and just get it finished. However, I know as I do a full read through I’m sure there will be a lot more, I’m nervous about it but like you I just want to create the best version of the story possible!
did you put your draft into physical book format? I did that with my first novel although not in the first draft and I found it really helpful. Far easier than dealing with 400 pages of printed A4 paper!
Hey Ande , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with more Quality Editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail and also help you with the overall youtube strategy and growth ! Pls let me know what do you think ?

@@clashingwithsmugglerz9991 I use Scrivener. I like it because it allows me to split up my writng into the chapters of the book.

@@megminkk I completely relate!! It’s so nice to hear from someone who relates so much! :) Thanks for watching!
I'm currently rewriting my debut novel, which was originally a short story, then a novella.
It's on its 9th draft now. Lol

🍁Also, wow, you and your sister look so much alike!
she’s actually my sister in law, but we get that a lot!
@@andesears Oh em gee!! I would have sworn you two were blood! 🤯😂
okay... the beginning was funny

@@victordealmeida3323 yes I did! it has been so helpful for editing! I didn’t want to have a bunch of printed pages either, or to do it all online!
@@andesears I thought I was crazy for doing it! I'll definitely start doing it from the first draft for the next novel, definitely easier!
