Welcome to another cozy writing vlog! In this one, I'm working on draft 6 of my fantasy novel, project tea cup. It is ALMOST DONE! Omg. We're so, so close now. I'm really excited to be almost at the stage where I can submit this to my literary agent. Again, I have no idea if this is the final draft before we send to publishers, but we shall see!
Take care everyone and I hope you enjoy the video! 💛

Thank you so much for being here everyone!! I'm very much in no-life mode on draft #6 now and I'm almost done with it and I feel like my brain is just about turned to mush. Take care and have a lovely Sunday :-) 💛
Fellow Aussie author :) it's a pleasure to connect and say hi :) (Red Scarf-Amazon) All the best with your novel too. Bye for now Alex :) Oh! We live in the same city, Christy I'm in the Barossa Valley.
the immediate, "I'm in Australia, it's autumn here" explanation to prevent the onslaught of your usual weather related comments had me giggling 😂
Every damn time 😅💛💛
As an Aussie this is a mood 😂

If you ever find a lost dog and you think they have a microchip, any local vet or animal shelter should have a reader that can find the owner! Of course that means actually getting the dog there (easier said than done). I'm generally a lurker but I've been following this series for a few years now and just wanted to say that I find you so inspiring and these videos deeply comforting. Thank you for doing what you're doing and sharing it and always for your candor. I look forward to the day project teacup is out in the world so I can finally read it :)
😊💛💛
The autumn content is gorgeous, so relatable with stressing to find an owner for a lost pet
I didn't know that Australia had few deciduous trees! And that is a beautiful street! I live in a place where there are tons of native deciduous trees, but it's still a pleasure every year to watch the colors bloom all over the neighbourhood. Never gets old. :)
Watching your videos makes my day
Thank you for being here 😊💛💛
It's so nice having followed the channel for a few years now, to get to enjoy the cycles of your calendar. The yearly birthday week blog, the yearly trip to Sterling - it's so lovely to have these little recurring gems to look forward to ✨
"It doesn't mean that it's going badly, it just means that I care a lot" 💛
I'm on 5th draft of my fantasy novel and this is like rollercoaster' ride: there are days when I'm really proud of what I've written and days when I have imposter syndrom just like you. But my project hasn't been seen by beta readers yet.
Autumn is my favorite season. Much as I like spring, it was refreshing to see autumn colors.
I will make sure that when your book comes out I rate it with the according paw score for putting those fingers to bad use. So funny…
you work so hard and we love it.
Also thank you for helping the dog, i wished people would do this more! it hurts to know there are dogs out there lost.
But love this vlog.
It's always a good day when Christy uploads. Good luck with draft 6. Keep up the good work!
Well done on the chapter surgery! Imposter syndrome is so normal and actually very healthy I think - being passionately invested in the work but in a very self-aware way, making sure that you never get complacent. Bug hitched a ride from Sterling, I reckon! 💚
I think all of us literary souls love autumn and the rustle of leaves beneath our feet 💛 Lovely video Christy! I wonder if you wouldn't mind sharing your playlist for when you write - I'd love to check it out!
It blows my mind that it's Fall for you now, but Spring for us. Lol Being in New Hampshire, we're used to bright Fall colors, I still love it though. :)
I loved this vlog Christy! Congrats on all your effort with Project Teacup ❤ can't wait to read it!
Lovely video, Christy and I feel you! We don't experience autumn where I live so if I ever go somewhere that does (and it's the season) or whenever I see it in videos, movies, or books it feels like I am seeing (or reading) something magical happening!
🍁🍂🧡
Living in perth we dont get that brilliant autumn feel as much. Having been to adelaide i really liked that. You are lucky!
jealous of your weather omg
Can’t wait to read project tea cup!!!!!!
Me too it sounds so cool!!
The april and autumn comment. its so fascinating lol i just cant wrap my head around that Australian weather thing
Fred eatery serves nasi goreng?? Well done Fred.
I don't live near deciduous trees either and i miss them!! Thanks for showing us the beautiful trees!!
Thank you for sharing these early autumn images 🧡🍁🍂 and for, again, reuniting a puppy to its owner. ❤
Love autumn(we are walking into spring in Sweden at the moment after a very long winter),so i really enjoyed this. Everything autumnal😉i love your dress and jewelry,you going to cafes etc,so inspiring🐿🍂🫖🍵🥧🕯📓🖋🪶🦉🦇Warm hugs coming your way
This was such a cosy video! You should see Canberra during autumn, due to the dense European tree population, the city transforms into a spectrum of red, orange, and yellow hues 🍂🍁 it’s stunning.
Oh that must be pretty! 💛
We have been planning a trip to Australia. If I add Adelaide to our itinerary, it is only because of you! :) Looking forward to reading Project Teacup soon.
You’ve gotta see our beaches too!
@@Ebony.B Will do. Please share the name of your city too. :)
@@readwriteinspire I actually live in rural NSW 😂 but my favourite beaches are at Evan’s Head nsw
@@Ebony.B Sounds great. Will add them to my trip and let you know. NSW is definitely on my list of places to visit since my son just received an offer from UNSW and this trip is to check out the unis too :)
Lovely video! Just wanted to say while I'm partial to spring ephemerals over autumn leaves, I'm still quite fond of them and loads of people love them and find them just as special where they're common in the US.
Impostor syndrome is so hard to deal with. Whenever I'm good at something, it starts up. Thanks for talking about it.
I love that it's autumn somewhere else in the world, cause I can always experience the season through other people😂
I am currently in allergy hell, the Mediterranean weather has been an abomination for years now due to global warming and I need the delusion!
Can't wait for you to finish so I can get your experience of trying to get it published.
Hello Christy Ann,
Keep up the astounding work that you do in writing your fantasy novels. You are one hell of a writer never forget that
Loved it! super cozy video, it's always nice to get updates on PT
Can’t wait to see your book on the shelves 😊
I'll definitely read your book! So excited :)
Ahh your vlogs are so cozy! You’re so far along with project teacup, can’t wait to read it 🤍
Thank you Christy !
I love your way to re-write your draft. And this autumn vibe put balm on my soul (I'm in France where is spring, but it's raining all the time !). I love your dress, it's seem to be a sondeflor. I have same skincolor and same straight hair than you, and I think this sheckers brown-black will be my 4th dress. I will wait september to get it :) Bisou
I can’t wait to be able to buy the book of project tea cup! ❤
I hope you have moments of being really proud of where you are as a writer and as a person even if you at times have doubts and so on--lovely video!
cannot wait for the day to come, when i will dive into the journey around the world that you have built, and get acquainted with your characters!
I can't wait to read Project Teacop!!!
your channel is realy a scape from reality, when the things are tough and I thinking about give up on writing, I see some of your videos. Is spiring see you just living and writing. thx xoxo
Thank you for sharing some of your writing process, it is very interesting to learn more about your way of thinking and how you approach things :-) I'm working on my first draft. Spring-greetings from Germany
I am so happy for you!
Thank you!! 💛
Nice vlog!!
I love these videos :)
Aww I miss fall ❤
If you can sit outside, without even a sweater on, it's not autumn, it's summer 😂 (I'm just jealous ❤) Love this video 😊
Me encantas tus videos, gracias 😊
I love your videos Christy! You can add dog savior to your c/v now! I also have to figure out where I’m going to park before I leave lol. I’ve been listening to movie scores paired with rain/thunderstorm videos on TH-cam.
I'm going to be passing through Adelaide in July, keen to try some nice cafes! And that bookshop ❤
Mascavado, Cielo and Hello Neighbour are my favourites around Adelaide. Also, The Central Markets is my favourite place in the city, so I strongly recommend visiting :) (though I will warn you, they're closed on Sundays and Mondays). Hope you have the best time! 💛
Omg Swiftie hiii lol not you casually listening to tortured poets for one second and me recognising it
OMG YOURE FROM ADELAIDE! So cool!
Also dealing with a VERY challenging chapter twenty-five edit! Gonna go and open the doc right now and see what I can do.
Best of luck with it! :-)
I live in the Netherlands europe so i know these trees ❤❤❤
hello everyone 😊
Am I the only person that thinks that Christy is an adhd person? Not that is any of my business... but I've notice some characteristics and I do think so. Specially because she's so creative and multitasking :3
As for the lost dog - if it's anything like the UK, you can take them to the local vet
Christy I am an author like you but for children, I wish that we collaborate some day to make some points of view about writing and problems occured when writing, let's do it some day and see is there any same problems facing us through writing. I love you and I love watching your channel, it's just informative, lovely person you are, ambitious and you are contagious on some way I mean when I watch you I came back to my writing, such ambitious and serious author you are. Hugs from Beirut - Lebanon.
What tools/apps do you use to write your book? I was thinking about using Word, but I'm sure. Love your channel
Idk what she uses but a lot of people use google docs if you want something for free ❤
Can you share what playlists you listen to? Trying to get into new music. Thank you!
Your love of trees reminds me of L.M. Montgomery.
I was so confused by the fall content for a second but realized that it’s fall in Australia but spring in the States😜
Don’t forget us!😂
Can you send the playlist you use for your previous books please?
This is the one I mentioned in the video: th-cam.com/video/jhX-2wYCjxI/w-d-xo.html 💛
this is so random, but what kind of keyboard are you using for your home computer? it sounds so calming.
i doubt you'll ever read this but here we are.
Have you gone to Brooke's bakery? How are her cookies?
This is pretty off topic on a lovely video, but where did you buy your dress? It's stunning!!
It's from Son De Flor 💛
TTPD easter eggs 😅
I thought you dyed your hair grey in the thumbnail x)
Oh it does look a little bit silvery doesn't it! 💛
This was great. Thank you
The cardinal rule of editing is
🌟 Thou Shalt Not Introduce New Errors 🌟
It's also the hardest to follow! 🥲
Best of luck, Christy! Wishing you a clear mind in the final stretch.
lol, it's such a struggle. My ability to add in typos cannot be tamed 😅😅 Thank you so much 💛
Truth!
