My condolences to anyone grieving today over the news. I hadn't heard yet when I published the video, but if you google "Queen Elizabeth and rainbows" you may see a photo of a double rainbow that appeared this morning over the Thames. Brought tears to my eyes.
I haven't written anything for a few years now and watching this really makes me want to start again, so thank you so much for the inspiration. I think I might try nano again this year! I won one year, so I know I can do it!
I've been struggling to get my mojo back into writing/editing. I love how you keep pushing forward by trying a different approach until you get the desired results! You are an inspiration Sarra!! Thank you for sharing your insights and your journey! I like the idea of starting with one day a week where I can give myself the freedom and dedication to just focus on my writing...it really puts the proverbial “to-do list" at bay - even for just one day. Besides, I have the rest of the week to work on that! Such a simple idea, yet so elusive when you're in the middle of it all and want to do it all! Thank you for your guidance, insight, and encouragement! 💕
I'm happy to see you so happy. You really look as if you're capturing some of your joy with writing again. On a sad day, it was good to have something "heart lifting" to watch.
hi I am a die hard heartie and have followed you for years. I am so excited about this book. I write Christian fiction and don't get into the witchy stuff as a personal choice (no judgment the Savior loves everybody) . I am so excited about reading The Disappearence of Vanessa Shaw. continue to Shine Bright 🌞
Your message really resonated with me so much! I have so much going on that my brain never relaxes enough to get into a creative “producting” phase. I try to consume a lot of stories for later ideas, but can’t seem to create my own these days. I live with my parents and my kids so being the only one between the generations means I usually am the one to drop what I’m doing to help with whatever everyone else needs. I’m sure that having a day dedicated to being creative would be a game changer and I’d make that shift yesterday if I could. However, I’ve learned that expecting yourself to dive into a new change is one thing (and hard on it’s own), but it’s harder when you have others who have to wrap their heads around that change too. My kids are small and my parents are perfectly healthy but 80yo, so I’ve learned that I have to take seriously small baby steps towards the life I’m trying to build. 😅
Life-long Texan tip: you will always need a jacket, because when it's not cold outside, it's cold inside! I just keep one in the back of my car, just in case. Can't wait to read your mystery book, though!
Great video! I've been wanting to block off 2 days a week as writing only days. Now I think I'll start with one and see how it impacts my schedule and daily tasks. Thanks for being such an inspiration!
It occurred to me as I watched this that I love PB to write at and I would totally faint and fall out if I should ever go into one and see you there writing. Would you ever want to be interrupted during that time? You are giving me such great encouragement to get back in the writing chair. It has been a year of working and family loss. I want to but my motivation is low. Thanks for all you do Sarra!
Love seeing writing updates specially as my toddler's start of school has been a lot more bumpy than I had anticipated so writing has been stopped on my end but yes, the hardest part is to accept that change happens slowly not instantly for kids and even more so for us as adults
Yet again, you're inspiring me. I used to set aside Friday as my writing day, and I think it's time I get back into that routine. Also, I'm thinking about working on the prequel episodes of my serial. There are some things I still need to nail down in that part of the story. I think working on this will fill in some of the blanks in the current timeline. Thank you!!!! 💖💖💖💖
I’m so glad you made this decision, Sarra, because this video resonated with me. We have no trouble giving times/days to other activities in our lives, why not writing? I’ll be an alumni tagging along for a HB90 refresh and then from the week after next, I’ll be making Tuesday my day to write ♥️
Hi, Sarra. Congrats on 55K. I have a question about setting. I have access to your resource library, and I love it. I didn't see any worksheets on creating setting. Do you have suggestions on where I can find setting worksheets online? I can find a plenty of character and plot. My genre is crime fiction. Thanks. 🙂
I'm sorry, I don't know of any worksheets but there is a book in the write great fiction series specifically on setting if you haven't checked that out!
Yes 💔the world is in sorrow over Queen Elizabeth II. I am happy to see and listen to your Vlog! It makes my day❤️ Its so good this new take on the writing "to do whats feel good" I have problem to start do I have so manny storys in my head...🙈 But, when I wrote a smal story to a girl, THEN it was done verry fast! So now I know that I have to think that I Iam writing to someone special...And find a good translation app. Because Google translator is not always correct. And I am not🙈BAD spelling, but a good witch🧙♀️ 🙃Thank you HB90 metod, the strukturer your TH-cam, Vlog is sooo good and a inspiration . Joyfull is the word!!!
I am so grateful to you. This was my first day back at work and I can’t tell you how wonderful it has been for me to learn and understand time management thru HB90. A cloud has been lifted and I have become very protective of my time. I’d like to purchase HB90 for my neice. How can I do this? Thank you Sarra for your years of generosity! You are the best!
You can find VInessa Shaw in the first Hocus Pocus movie! Seriously! It was on last night and I saw her name in the opening credits, so I just had to tell you I have at least located her in the past. (If you spell her name with an i.)
Thank you for this video! I love it. It's inspiring, motivating and helps me a lot to get back on track with my writing as I am in a similar place (although I'm not a bestselling author yet 😄). Looking forward to watching more of these writing vlogs. Setting friday to my writing day: check ✅
If you continue to have burnout issues I highly HIGHLY recommend Becca Syme's Writer Burnout series here on TH-cam. It's been incredibly helpful to me.
My condolences to anyone grieving today over the news. I hadn't heard yet when I published the video, but if you google "Queen Elizabeth and rainbows" you may see a photo of a double rainbow that appeared this morning over the Thames. Brought tears to my eyes.

💔💖
The rainbow brought tears to my eyes too! Condolences to all who are grieving the passing of Queen Elizabeth. 🌈
Thank you
Thank you all so much for 55,000 Subscribers!!!! I seriously love and appreciate you all!!

Congrats Miss. Sarra!
Congratulations!!

I’m not even a writer, but I love hearing an example and the reminder that we don’t need to go from where we are to where we want to be all at once!!
Evie is the CUTEST little interrupter ✨❤️✨. I can’t wait to get Vanessa’s book in my hands! Sending you all the creative vibes!
And as a fan, I am PATIENTLY waiting and cheering you on for you it next release!!! Only good vibes from me here!!!

Good tip!! I'm learning this to be so true!
I am loving this novel already.

Writing vlogs are my favorite 🧡 something about someone else writing helps me get my butt in gear

It would be so wild to have someone recognize me haha
Look at those cute nails just typing away. Glad to hear the joy in your voice today, Sarra!💜💜💜
My favourite place to write is the library at my old university. Going out definitely helps me focus
When you said the tagline I got chills!
Woohoo! Thank you!!
Love seeing writing updates specially as my toddler's start of school has been a lot more bumpy than I had anticipated so writing has been stopped on my end but yes, the hardest part is to accept that change happens slowly not instantly for kids and even more so for us as adults
What a lovely place to write! Your Tuesdays are awesome!
Writing vlogs are the best! 😄🥰

I am slowly moving my stuff from Scrivener into Campfire Writes. That way I can write on my phone.
Yay! Great Vlog, love to see you more in your element! You absolutely glow when talking about writing and your excitement makes me excited 🥳☺️
yay Sarra! I'm so glad you're finding the joy!
Great writing vlog! Cant wait to see more writing updates :)
Your tagline for your WIP is great. Totally want to read it.
Loved this so much :) YAY for nano diaries. My favorite. And definitely looking forward to an in-depth plotting multiple POVs video someday
Look at all the creative juices ❤️❤️ Love it!
YAY in time for me to prepare breakfast and watch your drop for some inspo. Thanks!!

I love everything you do, and it’s nice to see you having more fun again with writing. Keep doing what’s fun.
Sarra, so happy for you you found a good way to work on TDoVS and getting back to that creative flow!
Love watching these updates. Can't wait for more :)
Yes 💔the world is in sorrow over Queen Elizabeth II.
I am happy to see and listen to your Vlog! It makes my day❤️
Its so good this new take on the writing "to do whats feel good"
I have problem to start do I have so manny storys in my head...🙈

Could you make a video on how to edit writing quicker? If that's possible 😅
Kisses from France !

Funny, I lived in Texas for 5 years and just moved to Florida a few months ago.
What kind of ipad and keyboard do you have? Love that keyboard. You inspire me to start writing my book
RIP Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The || 🌈🌈💜💜💜 🌈🌈
💜💜💜
I have a questions what kind of books genre do you writes?
Most of my books are Young Adult Contemporary Fantasy!
💗💗💗
Panera is a good place to go… they never kick you out lol
That's the best, honestly. Free refills, booths, can sit for hours. A++
(Just wish we could be sitting there together again! And I could hold sweet Lemon!)
@@HeartBreathings ah yea that would be fun. Probably wouldn’t get a lot of writing done lol
💞
