#authortube
I just had my first writing sprint after two weeks of radio silence. I'm so glad you're also getting back into writing, Vee! ♡
seeing a young writer pursue her dreams so fervently was very inspiring. this was the first video of yours I watched and idk how often or if you read your comments but I hope you know that seeing you living the dream is inspiring.
Am twelve years old and I have been writing stories ever since I was 10. I stopped writing when I turned 12 but watching your videos motivates me. Now I am back to writing
I do that too!! (Making the characters my age). I think it’s needed as you get older because so many authors write their characters as 16-19 and 20+ feels so rare. Normalise having older MCs!!
I've been losing motivation to write but this has inspired me. Thank you so much, Vee! ❤
personally i’ve always had my main character be a couple years older than me. like when i was 12 theyd be 13/14 at 14 theyd be 16/17 and im now 16 and my main character is 19
oooo interesting!!! someone else commented that they tended to age up too!
Oh girll, I’ve noticed the MC age thing too 😭 And then I get the urge to age my old characters up with me too
Slay slay slay!!!
The profile picture 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Making the main character your age is something I do too and you just made me realize it 😭 Honestly it helps me write the character better and sometimes I make them the same age on purpose just bc of that and I change it slightly after writing
yes i so feel this!! i find that i can understand how they’d think, communicate and react more if they’re the same age as i am!
Yep same 😂😂 I enjoy relating and writing about scenes I haven't experienced but would like to
Using this as motivation to write 😭
I tend to make my characters older than me. My MC in my main writing project is 36 and I’m almost 20. He’s more than 15 years older than me. But I love him dearly.
Great job on 7345 WORDS in one day!
Thanks did this video. I'm going to pause it and start writing.
YASS I missed your videos
Came out with perfect timing. Thank you so much for being so inspirational!
I also make my characters (the main characters particularly, not all the time though) the same/similar age as me, and one of my OC's or a couple of them (I've had them for 5 plus years at this point) age up with me, so yeah... every year they get a year older (I don't celebrate their birthdays, to be frank I don't know when they are, but it's just cool). And it's also fun because I have various AU's for them, and so I can picture them older or younger at any time I want, but there's this streamline one, and that's the one I follow ... most of the time.
It's actually interesting because the characters are either my age/ similar age or they're like 5+ years older than myself.
I've been struggling with finishing my book, this video really spiked my motivation thanks boo ❤
the way you organized this sounds very doable and fun, it inspired me to try it!! 😍😍😍
aw thank you so much!! i definitely recommend trying it, it was challenging but overall really fun!!☺
(im catching up on all ur videos so hellooo!!) i always used to make my MCs the same age as me, until I was 18, and now my characters r usually 17/18 because YA is always where my heart has been, but i definitely always did that!
Great 🎉
You inspire me so much! I love you Vee! ♡
this is actually a great idea, i love this
Awesome video!!! Ur always so inspirational ❤
I love your vlog 💕💕
this just inspired me to write today vee 😭😭 I’ve been in such a slump! love your motivation ✨☺️
omg i'm so glad it could!!☺that makes me so happy!! wishing you a great writing session!!❤
Ahhh I love thisss
Well done! Good effort 💪🏽
I’m new to your channel! But I love your writing and book blogs! I can’t wait until the fall to see your vlogs!
Wow congratulations taking on that challenge ❤ thanks for bringing us subscribers along with you on your writing journey
You are so inspiring, thank you so much.❤
aw you’re so welcome!😊
That's awesome! I can't really do these 12hr challenges...they just end up being a week long thing anyway. LOL
i’m trying to be like you vee 🧘🏽♀️
LOL❤️
666 views👀 I’m about to chase the devil away with a good 667😂😂
😂
Inspiring 🎉✨
Omg you killed it, Vee!!!
Also what are the chances! I clicked on this to get some motivation to do my own writeathon and lets just say I squealed v loud 🥰🥰🥰 you are too sweet!
ahhhh i’m having a serious fan girl moment right now!!🥹🥰🫶 i seriously love your videos so much!
Underrated
Will you do another writing live stream? I enjoyed the last one so much!
aw i’m so glad u did!! i’m gonna try to plan for one soon!
i always make my (main) character the same age as me, give or take 2 years 😭im so guilty of it i cant stop icl
GLAD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE
Writing the same age as you currently are isn't weird, especially under 30. Afterwards you have more experiences to pull from (especially if you keep a journal) and more insight into what age means to you in terms of character development and the types of stories you can tell and relate to.
I don't think it is especially limiting because there are certain things you can capture about an age while you're experiencing it that is quite compelling.
I haven't written in years but this definitely motivated me to try this this weekend. I miss writing stories, since I graduated last year, I haven't done anything. Work and life but I'm definitely going to try this method ❤
i’m so glad this could motivate you!! you got this🥰
Girl i missed your videos, somehow yotube wast showing your newest videos to me. Now the bell is on, next time you post, im there!
I just finished my first draft for my dark Peter Pan retelling and I’m so excited!!!! Thank you for being one of my motivations for starting and finishing!
8:23 I've actually never made my main characters the same age as me, ever since I started writing when I was nine they've always been at least three years older if not more... I think I've always wanted to be older than I am lol now I'm curious what everyone else does
omg that's so interesting to me!!! i'm also so curious about this, like i wonder if when i'm older i'll eventually start keeping them in their early twenties instead of continuing to age them up!
What are some tips you can give on writing?
❤❤❤
I’m the same way my characters are always my age like without fail
Literally just finished a writing sprint and gonna reward myself with watching this. Already loveeee the editing in the beginning!! Also, this is kinda making me wanna do something similar, can’t lie, I need to actually get some writing done lol. Hope you had a good Camp NaNo☀️
Edit: yesss love Lindsay, her sprints are keeping me going
omg tysm!! i highly recommend, it's honestly fun to try these writing challenges even though some are challenging loll!! and YES i hope Lindsay keeps doing them, her sprints have been so fun🤍
Omg I wanna be friends with you so bad 😭
i wanna be friends with YOU!!!
I don't think I have any characters that are the same age as me lol
so interesting!!!
Also why is there a pride flag literally everywhere in America?! Is that normal????
i live in canada! a lot of companies put them up to show their support during pride month and still have them up now which i think is great!💖
Where I live there are a lot of pride flags too! It’s to show their support!
I love how you do this challenge !! ALSO omg I’m so glad you liked the Starbs rec 🩷😭 and can’t believe you included it in the vlog I like showed my coworkers lol
You inspire me so much, Vee!!
