So excited to have my first reward, but there's still a lot of work to do! I just needed to get out of the house yesterday, so a small shopping trip and some words at the end of the day. How's it going for you?
We have the Old Navy ones too. They are a tiny bit big, but that helps me because they don't feel as tight. :) I take Sundays off, but I got words in on Saturday and today. I'm actually - amazingly! - on target. Usually, by now I've fallen behind, but I took a page from your book and planned a bit conservatively. I can always do more but now I'm not behind! yay!
My favorite journaling / planning CZcamsr is Planning with Purpose. Serious Zen every video I could listen to her all day long.
My reward for reworking plotting on my WIP for 1.5 hours tonight was watching your video 🥰
When I’m tired at the end of the day, I just want to make sure I get one 15-minute sprint before sleeping ☺️ doesn’t matter how many words that would be. What matters is I wrote something ☺️
OMG...I *WILL* be getting that washi tape too (like I *really* need more)!! Thanks for showing it to us!!
That glowing keyboard is amazing!
Congrats on the 10k reward. I can hear my husband's voice - 'step away from the washi' LOL By the time you read this you will have earned your 20k reward. Can't wait to see what you chose. Off to pound out another 2 hrs. Creative Blessings!
I took a ‘me’ day too! I spent about two hours this morning prepping my spinach/cauliflower/broccoli salad base for the week (I add different veggies to it every day and it lasts me the week) and then I spent the rest of the day looking for images for book covers, watched a movie (The Secret: Dare to Dream on Amazon); played some iPad games and just relaxed with the hubby after he got home from work. It was wonderful! 🥰. Now the hubby is in bed (he gets up at 3 in the morning for work) so I have about 3 hours to do a little writing ✍️ before I follow him. Me days are nice! (Oh! My reward for reaching 30,000 words yesterday was the Erin Condren planner I mentioned yesterday! It’s here! Yay!
Congratulations, Kathy!
I am working on my first book and you are so inspirational! I’ve been watching all your videos as I work away. Not doing NaNoWriMo this month but might be something I do next year.
Congrats on working on your first book! We have Camp Nano in April and July (?) where you can work on anything, even projects you've already started. Then we jump back in again in November. Creative Blessings!
@@KellysCreativeDreams oh thank you for letting me know! This book is the first in the series so it will help to have that tool.
Kate cavanaugh is another writer I follow. Zero day yesterday
Thank you for posting all these vlogs. I watch them every morning the next day after you post them before I start writing for a little inspiration to get my day started while I'm waking up with my coffee. I really appreciate your tips as they've helped me through some snags and bumps along the way.
You did ask, so if you are looking for someone to binge watch, then watch me!! 😊🤣 He he - seriously, I am doing short NaNoWriMo Creative Instiration and Support tarot videos this month if you think you might be interested. 😁. I find your videos so inspiritational so I am following this series of yours and loving it! I am trying to finish my first self publish this year and I love watching your NaNoWriMo Diaries and seeing how a publsihed author goes through the process. Best of luck reaching your deadline 🍀🤞
I´m following this! I´m not a writer and I´m not doing NaNoWriMo, but after 2 years of thinking I got glittering colibries for Christmasdecorations. Too girlie I thoguht ...but hey, they are going up in my writing area!!! It was the right 10$ choice :) So nice and inspirtional to see your progress everyday. (And all of you doing NaNoWriMo).
Thank you so much, Sarra, for all the wonderful videos you share with us. I am completing my first Nanowrimo this year and was listening to anything I could find. I found you and I have really enjoyed your videos. I did look up your books. You have a new fan :). I wish you the best and hope you enjoy that little one. They grow way too fast.
Congratulations on your 10K! A reward well deserved!
Yay for washi! (Looks at drawer full of the stuff. Nope, not gonna feel guilty!). When not watching your channel, I really enjoy Documented Journey - watching Brie sketch and paint is so soothing, and I'm really looking forward to her doing CreateDecember again this year. I'm buying art materials for my NaNo rewards, so I have something fun to look forward to after November is over 😀
Yay! I love a little shopping trip! How exciting that you reached the first reward, that washi is beautiful! I reached my first reward yesterday too and grabbed a salted caramel cream cold brew 🙌🏻 Thanks for bringing that into my life, it was delicious! 😄 Glad you took some time to rest before getting back to it! You got this, my friend! ✨💜
Ooh nice!!
How fun is that washi!!! You are doing great. I am loving writing sprints with a friend. Sometimes it's the only way I sit down at the computer to focus on writing. I really have fun.
You are one of them. I also watch alot of Medical Assistant videos, since Im going to school to be a Medical Assistant. I also like to watch Brittany Wang, and Bethany Atazadeh.
Catching up on videos while working out my character info sheets. Didn't think of doing prizes for every 10,000 words though I am thinking of ordering a zipped Hobonichi cover as my prize when (and not if) I hit my 50,000 word goal at the end of the month!
♥️♥️♥️
Thank you.
Thanks for taking us with you on your Target run. You're the best!
Hey, it’s springtime in the Southern Hemisphere! You can celebrate for me. 😁😁😁
I'm giving myself rewards but they're simple ones. I bought washi tape and pens for reaching 5K then allowed myself to watch a Netflix movie without guilt (!) when reaching 10K. My next goal of 15K is to buy an ebook, I think. Not sure. My final reward when reaching 50K is to buy Scrivener.
That's a great idea!
Love the day to day Nano Diaries! What is the song during the Target montage? I love it!
Thank you for all of your inspiration! * I also love the Old Navy masks, they fit so well.
Ooh pretty washi! My 10k reward was an Energel Clena pen in 05 with blue-black ink. Everyone raves about them so I thought I'd try one. I was worried it would be scratchy, but it's NOT! I love it. It's so nice to find a smoooooth pen that's smaller than 07!
My 20k reward is a set of ShuttleArt dual-tip brush pens off of Amazon, but I'm not there yet. :)
Oh nice!!
I haven't been in a store since March. Gods, I miss Target.
I haven't either. I find myself wanting to go grocery shopping now. Gods help me! *lol*
Re: blue nails... Most nail polishes don't stain my nails so I don't bother with base coat, but there are one or two in my collection that do stain. So I took a sharpie and marked the top with a big B, for base coat to remind me next time. ... Don't have base coat? Use clear polish... Really any color that will form a barrier so your nails don't get stained again. I use clear so that any color won't conflict with my finish color. 💜🌞🌵😷
I did use a base coat! Don't know why this one in particular always stains despite it.
@@HeartBreathings , then for sure, I'd try clear as a base coat. Make sure it's really dry before adding the blue. ... Oh! The things we go through for beauty! LOL! Sending lots of love 💜 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵. 😷
My fav CZcamsrs are Kate Cavanaugh and Chris Fox (I think you've mentioned you watch him before), Amy Landino, Matt D'Avella, Hapa Family, and Sailing LaVagabonde.
Yesterday was a bit of a struggle. I tried to write and managed to write 3 sentences!
Hey it wasn't a zero day though. Keep going you got this!!
Oh, what's the name of the song starting around 4:30 ? It's lovely ❤️ And I so enjoy christmas themed vlogs, loved your little shopping tour 🌟
I love your keyboard.. so awesome
I love all of the encouragement you give us! Unfortunately, I have to travel to my home town in Virginia on Thursday and probably will not be able to write while I am there. I can't take my laptop with me but maybe I can get some words in the old fashioned way with paper and pen. I really want to write and while I know I don't have the time to win NaNo I am still winning by continuing to write my novel! Thank you for everything you do to encourage us to follow our dreams!!
What about your phone? You could do dictation into Google docs maybe??
Heart Breathings great idea! Thank you
Crazy to think things are "normal" in the USA, including school and Disney Parks open, during a pandemic. I love the washi tapes!
Haha definitely not normal. Wish we were back to normal, but we still are home most of the time except school which has only 7 kids in a class and they wear masks all day. My baby is 14 months and has hardly ever seen anyone outside our family.
Can't stay home forever.
@@HeartBreathings oh, it’s nice to know that they are keeping just a small number of children together. Here in Brazil everything is still online, with the parents picking up and delivering homework at the school when necessary. I’m sorry about your family not being able to see Evie, but I’m sure once this has passed she’ll have an extra special party to look forward. ❤️
So sad there isn't a Michaels in Australia :-(
Congratulations on your progress! I'm interested to know what song you are playing in this video.
I always end up buying stuff after I watch your videos. Like, I hadn't realized that Target had their Christmas stuff out yet, but now guess where I'm going tomorrow, lol.
As for CZcams channels, I've recently binged Bemyguestwithdenise, a home decorating channel, as well as Clutterbug (that lady is hilarious and she's given me a lot of great tips).
Thanks for these vlogs! I'm in awe of your 10000 word night!
Thanks for the suggestions!
My channels are yours, Charmed Intuition Tarot, Bethany Atazadeh, TingTingASMR, James Blackwood-Raccoon Whisperer, Vivien Ries, and a few other ASMR artists. I wouldn't be able to sleep if not for the ASMR channels.
Oh I watch Charmed Intuition Tarot as well I love her voice! I must check out the other ones you mention thanks :)
I had that same Michaels garland in my cart but ended up putting it back - I couldn’t decide how it would look in the tree. Lol
It's so cute! I'm going to put it on the countertops.
@@HeartBreathings good idea! They had too many cute options.... but now I’m thinking I could have used that in the mantle!
Zo Marley is new and good
where did you get the giant pad with your name on it and the days of the week
I was just feeling guilty for my 10K word reward when i saw your video... LOL 😊😁 Is it possible that my reward has slowed down my writing? Whats going on with that?!
Uh oh lol. What was the reward?
@@HeartBreathings it was a coach purse LOL I'm still going strong though! Im at 23K!
I cannot for the life of me document my progress on the site. I put it in and nothing updates.
Did you have a nice morning at the hotel?
I didn't spend any time there sadly. Just got up and headed straight home to see the little one!
I wear kid sized masks lol
