Congrats on the bonus and I'm glad you had time to take off from writing :)

[@s.k.derbas]

Thank you! The bonus is definitely an added incentive and a great way to stay motivated with the writing. And yes, being able to take time off from writing and socials was great, but I'm happy to be back again.

[@alex.chrisco]

HECK YEAH YOU GOT THAT BONUS!!! i cant wait to read more im already thirsting for the next episode

[@s.k.derbas]

Hopefully finishing the next episode tonight during the livestream! But yes! It was super exciting that I was able to get the bonus in July. I'm very intrigued and hopeful for August as well! Thank you for being such an integral part of my process during this project, I cannot thank you enough 💚💜

I am really glad that I found someone talking more about this platform. I really do see it as Amazon's version of Webtoon and I really do want to see it succeed, but I would like to be able to do this for a living (it's the dream) but, I don't know how to find readers that will be able to be constructive as well as be interested in the story so that I can ultimately publish it as a full novel in the coming year. Things have changed so much in over a decade that I am now trying to find my footing again.
As for stories, I have two of them up. 'A Distant Key' and 'The Butcher'. I'll take whatever I can get in the form of critique as this is the third draft of it and I hope to finalize it soon.
Keep up the solid content and happy spooky season!

Yea, I haven't seen many videos about Kindle Vella here on TH-cam and I really want to see it succeed as well. I haven't checked out Webtoon (I think the Lore Olympus graphic novels came from that though, so I can only assume it's an episodic way of doing graphic novels and comics?) but I think that Vella is Amazon's response to Wattpad and the rise of the episodic fiction. I've started posting some posts to some FB groups with Kindle Vella to help gain some readers. In my next episode I will talk about those and leave links for them.
The dream to write full time and make some money doing it is my dream too. Keep at it and I believe good things will come! Thanks for the love and all the yesssssses to happy spooky season 😍

Definitely going to check out your story :) I'm loving the Kindle Vella updates.

[@s.k.derbas]

Awh! Thank you so much!! I'm happy you're loving this video series. It's been a fun adventure so far and I can't wait to share more :)

[@brandilynn2017]

I want to join your Discord but the "invite is invalid or expired" :(. Does it need to be refreshed or is the issue on my end?

[@s.k.derbas]

Strange. It shouldn't have been invalid or expired (at least not for the Cozy Corner.. sometimes the other 2 will get expired). But, anywho, I generated a new one. Here's the link to my Cozy Corner Discord 💚 discord.gg/ETJS7mpfQz

[@brandilynn2017]

@@s.k.derbas That worked! Thank you 💕
