Kristen, I've followed you for over 2 years now, and I have to tell you I'm so glad to see you posting videos about writing. I enjoyed all the other videos, but being an indie author, it's exciting to see you post about writing related content. So glad you're back!
Good to see you back Kristen. I have followed you for 4 years, and I had the feeling that the last two years were some kind of a pause from hustling, and also a dive into introspection. I have the feeling that you got pumped up again with energy and defined goals which makes me glad. Of course, you are entitled for the life you want, but I must confess that the hustle and organized side of your personality is very inspiring. Good luck for the Nanowrimo, I will get to it too, and I hope to see videos of your progression during that time. Take care.
Thank you 😊 It’s all a balancing act, that’s for sure. I think it’s important to show both sides as I would never want anyone to think that I’m “on” all the time 😅 I most certainly am not. But I’m glad you enjoy the productivity videos! ❤
Thank you for posting! Your posts keep me energized for my own planning and NaNoWriMo goals! Part of my process is updating or refreshing my writing space. Every year I seem to "change my mind" on how I want stuff visually concerning my environment. Probably a stall tactic haha but once I declutter and refresh my office/writing space I feel so much more clear to attack my preptober stuff! Happy Preptober everybody!
I completely understand your enjoyment for organizing and planning your book project . To me, that’s just as fun as actually writing the book! But then again I’m also a Virgo!! My hubby used to make fun of all the planning and organizing that I did but has now come to understand how therapeutic it is for me on a mental and emotional level. It’s nice to see someone else who enjoys the planning aspect of projects just as much I do! Rock on fellow Virgo!!!❤️
Yay for writing and organization content!! Without prying too much, I’m curious if you made a change to your career path? Totally fine if you don’t want to share, but my favorite videos of yours are where you were balancing working a 9-5 job and writing books, because they were so inspiring and motivating for me since that’s the situation I am in. 😄 Again, no need to share if that’s not something you want to discuss, but I wanted to ask 😁
@@AuthorKristenMartin Oh, I was actually wondering if you had recently decided to shift your career away from being a full-time creative, but that’s so cool you’re still going strong! 😁 (Just as an aside, if you ever do decide to do other work, I hope you won’t feel like you need to hide it because of the haters who used to give you such a hard time, your real fans will support you!) Also, I’m so excited for the spooky/fall content!! 👻 🍁
Great! Love your new office! The animals, omg, they are adorable! 😍And I feel the same, I have to organize and during revision time I need to hold the book in my hands to read it. I have a Kindle and it is great but it is still not a real book, if you don't like screens it will not solve it 100% (it is so much better to read on a kindle than on phone or normal screens. Just, it is still virtual, you don't have the pages to turn and hold and it is not exactly the same, but I love my kindle).

Aww thanks so much, Angela! It feels good to be back and I’m happy you’re enjoying all the writing content! 🤓

Thanks for sharing about the back-to-school bundle! Glad to have you as part of it.😊
Thanks for having me! ❤
I absolutely needed this. I just sat down to start my writing and your videos always get me in the mood. 💜
I LOVE hearing that 😊

I feel this so hard 😅 Planning gives me the same kind of high as writing… but I’ve never minded it 😊
I love your writing videos. I loved seeing Denali and Luna. Keep up the writing. Amy advice on how to get out of a really bad writers block.
I absolutely LOVED that video. You got me inspired to write again! Looking forward to your next videos on writing 😊
That’s what I like to hear! ☺️
Thanks for coming back. You are a great BLESSING 🙌 🙏 👍
Thank you 🙏🏼❤ I appreciate you!
So happy that you are creating more videos. Congratulations on all of you newly found happiness.
Thank you so much 🥹

Ohhh I left the corporate world quite some time ago 😅 I’m a full time writer and creative entrepreneur now and have no plans to return 😄

What a lovely selection of pets! You lucky thing!
They’re the best 😊

I have a feeling I might cave and try a Kindle 😅 We shall see
Annubis!! Love their name!!
He’s a sweetie! 🐈⬛
Can you talk about your blue light glasses again? I can't remember and they're so cute and I need some! Lol
Yes, from DIFF Eyewear-the link and discount code is in the description of the “Preptober Must-Haves” video from last week ❤
Is Lacy OK?
Yes, she’s doing great 😊
