Literally just know that the animal crossing update have made this *new young* animal crosser SO happy! I was getting bored with it, but lately I’m really enjoying the update! It’s worth the wait and will be the best reward for your days off ✨
omggg yes Phoebe!!! It's my daily treat haha
Thank you for sharing that moment of PURE JOY with us. 😃 I couldn’t stop smiling while watching you open the cover sketch!! CANNOT WAITTTTT 🙌🏼
AHHH THANK YOU SAM!
Your reaction when you got the cover was priceless!! How exciting!!
Trying to do both author responsibilities and actual writing is definitely a balancing act! It's also difficult to know when to push through and when to rest. I struggle with that every day.
haha thank you!
And sammmme. Maybe we will learn one day! haha
Chauncey biting and pulling your hair at 9:38 has absolutely killed me 😂😂😂😂
girl you and my split ends BOTH looool
I do immensely love how you prop your laptop up so you can stand while you work! I'm always so excited for these videos- a snapshot into the life of an author is fascinating.
LOL thank you, Sarah!
Even when you think you aren't being productive, you are still ten times more productive than me with more reasons that would stop you from being productive!
Also loving these insights behind the curtain in publishing. I hadn't hadn't thought of how you actually do edits 🤔
You are too sweet
You got a ton done this week! Yes, you deserve time off! I kept trying to see if I could see the reflection of the cover in your glasses LOL! Sadly, I could not. 😁
LOL glad because I didn't even THINK of that XD
admire you dedication, though :) LOL
@@LindsayPuckett 😂 cover reveals are my favorite! I can’t wait to see it!
I appreciated the Chauncey chaos as you were reading the cover email and then you having to just put him down 🤣 loved seeing the live reaction to your cover
LOL holding him was definitely a CHOICE
And thank youuuuu I'm so glad I thought to record it
Your reaction to the cover has me so excited to see it! I'm glad that it perfectly matched your vision. Also, way to go on blasting right through your copyedits! I'm a copyeditor/proofreader, so I know the level of detail you were dealing with. My eyes are tired every day! LOL. (One thing that helps a little is to zoom in as much as possible, though. I like 120% while editing.) Isn't puppy class the BEST? I eventually got my dog her CGC title just because I loved how tired she always was after classes.
Yes, I will definitely be zooming in from now on!
I don't know how you do it! My eyes were blurring within 10 minutes of copyedits haha Kudos to you for doing it as a job!
And yes! I really want to do as many classes as I can with him!
I'm so glad I found your channel and I agree with the person who commented on Alexa's "Unpopular Opinions" video you do deserve more subscribers. I know I said it the other day but congrats again on all the good things happening in your life
omgggggg **cries** thank you so much!
I learned about the headache hat from you and I most definitely just put one in my amazon cart. It will come in handy both for headaches and unbearable Arizona summers haha. You're doing great! You got so much done this week!
Yay! Omg mine is a lifesaver! And thank you so much :)
20:52 in and we finally get to see who’s singing! 🙌 Blurch has an ever so soothing voice 🥲
LOL doesn't he?
Loved this vlog. I love all of your vlogs, but I’m naming this my fave! Congrats on the cover and the film agent and all the fun things happening for you right now!
Awh omg thank you so much!
I want to see the cover so bad!!!!
That was a really cool box full of goodies. The sun/rainbow catcher looks so pretty!
Thank you so much! Omg I can't wait to share ittttttttt
I'm really looking forward to seeing that cover! 😊 Your reaction was everything.
And congrats on all the amazing things happening!
Thank you so much!
Ah!!! I loveeeed getting to see your cover reaction! I can't wait to get to see the cover!!
And OMG that blue ball ... we have that one too and it is my dog's FAVORITE thing on the planet! lol. When I need to keep my pups busy bull sticks have also been a lifesaver.
Omg so cool! And yes, bones are saving my career right now LOL
You are just so fun to watch and I’m loving hearing about your journey. I look forward to your videos. 💜☺️
omg thank you so much, Laura!
When I tell you I squealed when you said you were reading My Grandmother send her regards and apologies 😆 I hope you enjoy it!
With the cover reveal reaction and cute puppy class, basically this video felt meant for me- signed a delighted new subscriber 👏
Grandmother was 5/5 stars. I adored it!
And omg!! **squeals** thank you so much! XD
Be gentle with yourself, sister. You’ve got this. Time management is hard. I believe in you! Really excited abou the cover! Have a blessed day!
ugh thank you :)
Can I just say that I already aspire to be you?! I love love loved watching your reaction to your book cover, and I really hope I can have the same experience one day! Are you going to do a video about the copyedit process because I know next to nothing about the types/differences of editing! Super grateful for how transparent you've been about this process so far because no one ever talks about post-querying (aside from Alexa, of course) 🥰
Omg thank you so much!
I plan on doing a "what it's like to work with an editor at a publishing house" video and I'll explain it all there! I know Alexa has a video explaining all the differences so you could check out that in the meantime :)
@@LindsayPuckett I absolutely planned to check out Alexa's! Thanks so much again for the transparency. I look forward to your videos every week!
Thumbs up for being a fellow acnh player. 🤣
I know that's so biased but I'm hooked on all the new stuff. ❤️
me toooo It's so bad. All I want to do is play lol
Ahh I’m so glad I found your channel! It’s been so encouraging during the querying process - your humor and positivity are infectious. I’m so happy for your success and love getting to follow along!
OMG Thank you so much, Jessica! glad you find all this helpful! :)
I'm even more excited for your cover after seeing your reaction!! I'm resisting getting the animal crossing update--I need all the editing time I can get haha!
Hahaha it's so hard to stop playing once you start!
Ahh! I love that you got your copyedits and cover, all very exciting!!! Also, I need to play AC as well, I haven't for weeks and now with the new update I feel like I need to make some time 💜
Oh yes! Definitely! It's soooo relaxing
Congrats on your copyright page and new cover, Lindsay! 🎉
Thank you so much!
so excited to see the cover one day off of that reaction!! 😍

I really need to invest in that witch box 😍
Scorpio vlog coming up? 👀
girl yasssss! You would LOVE it omg
and Hahaha could be ;)
Yay for all the things! Busy busy busy!
Dead, dead, dead lol
Yeah, there were other things I was going to comment, maybe about Chauncey’s enormous eyeballs or something, but I got totally stuck on *smells like a lightning bug*! How do you know what a lightning bug smells like?! I don’t see anyone else commenting about this. Am I somehow the only one who never thought to sniff a lightning bug?
LOL it's from catching them as a kid! Your hands smell like them afterward
