Happy spring! How did your projects fare in Q1? ✨
50k for the Fanfic during Januwrimo. Rest is on hiatus 😅 That's my progress
Almost exactly the same as this video, no joke 😅 slow in January, complete disillusionment and borderline quitting in February, and back from the brink in March with measurable, but agonizingly slow, progress.
@@KeikoArukara crushing it!!!
@@Exayevie omg that sums it up PERFECTLY lol haha xD
@@Exayeviesameee
I watched this a few weeks ago while I was holding Clark and forgot to leave a comment!
I always appreciate your authenticity, and I am sure your other viewers do, too. Thank you for capturing this not-so-easy season of writing, and for reminding the rest of us that it is okay to experience slumps with our creative work.
Thank you, Pam!!! 🤗 virtual hug!
Around the six minute mark you talk about not knowing what to expect when you go into each chapter, and you feel like you get a momentum, but then the next chapter could be a heavy rewrite, that exactly encapsulates how it’s been doing my first major revision. Well stated!!
Thank you for watching!! Hope things are going well for you in the revision trenches 🧡✨
Finished the vlog! This vulnerability is soo needed and appreciated! Thx for sharing Anna. Good to see your joy came back at the end of the video. We are on a similar track with revisions and chapters.
Thank you Amber! I know you were getting so close to the end of your revision and hope we can celebrate you soon! 🧡✨
what a wonderful and authentic snippet of a writer's life. i was so touched by hearing about your doubts. 💛 it won't help much, but your book sounds so lovely, and of course there's a market for it. I'm a firm believer that readers are just as diverse as writer's fantasies are ☺
Thank you Minouk! That is such an awesome way to put it!! 😁
Loved this vlog and the little piece of hope at the end was nice to hear as someone also in the revision trenches. Excited to see how your April goes!
Thank you, Wallis!
Thank you for sharing
i love that the first chatty bit is in Feb lol, we all felt that january month slip through our fingers like time wasn't real
I swear to god January did not happen o_o
Ikr ABBA was prophesying with that song slipping through my fingers 😂
Loved this vlog, Anna! The vulnerability and honesty, the little message of hope at the end... if I could, I'd sedate those voices of doubt and anxiety with some good old big game tranquilizer. There is definitely a market for GGG! And the denim and embroidery shirt was giving real yeehaw (affectionate). Loved it! Thanks again for sharing your journey, always lovely to get glimpses into your process
Thank you, my friend! I hope someday I can be the biggest cheerleader for your projects the way you’ve been for GGG!!! :’) yeehaw (affectionate) is spot on and I shall always aspire to it lol
🔥🔥🔥
Assistant to the Villain is SO GOOD! Enjoy and tells us what you think when you're done!
Yay! Will do! ✨
I don’t think I could pull that shirt off, but I think it looks amazing on you! I love your vlogs, besides being cozy and aesthetic, you’re always so genuine and relatable, and I’m sorry to hear q1 didn’t go as well as it could have. But I honestly still think you’re killing it! 💪🏻 Also I’m obsessed with Baldur’s Gate 3 omg.
Thank you April 🥹🧡 you always lift my spirits and I appreciate you so much! I'm glad I'm not the only one out here obsessed with BG3! What kind of character do you play?
@@AnnaRobbinsWrites GOOD cause I never know what to say and always worry I’m being awkward, so hey, I’m glad to hear that! 😭💖 I played a bard on my first playthrough and I think it’s probably my favorite class! So many funny dialogue options and I love the versatility when it comes to combat. I haven’t finished a playthrough with a monk yet, but they seem AWESOME. And my characters may or may not always end up being BFFs (and occasionally girlfriends) with Lae’zel because I just love her too much 😂 What about you?
The cozy fantasy sounds amazing! I’ve been wanting to write one but I have more grand ideas 😅 I haven’t watched much but congrats and good luck with the revisions 🤍
Thank you so much! 🧡
So excited to learn more about Juliette!! The magnolias and ferns are beautiful, so glad spring is finally here. Don't forget that we go through seasons too, and our writing is no different. These last few months have been a slower season for you... and that's okay! Welcome back to your writing "spring--" maybe that rest and avoidance is what you needed to find your spark again. Thank you for continuing; the world needs to meet Poppy. We love you (and your shirt)! xoxo
Thank you!! 🧡🧡🧡 and so well said! Everything comes in seasons and it can't be "go go go" all year ☺️
Who told you that shirt was ugly? I will fight them for you! The shirt is gorgeous and it suits you perfectly 🥰
I'm just starting up revisions now and already feeling the 'oh shit there's so many problems with this book' drop in confidence, so it was so nice hearing you talk about it and I'm glad you are finding your spark again 💖💕 Thank you for posting this despite being uncertain, I think sharing the bad sides of writing as well as the good sides is so so important 🧡💚
Thank you Marta! 🧡🧡 I'm glad you like the shirt as much as I do lol! And I totally agree, it's very normal to have writing uncertainty.
I loved this video. From the editing, to opening up when revision gets hard- I really aporeciated this video. Especially as ive seemingly locked myself in revision hell once again.
Thank you so much Bombastus 🧡🧡🧡 I hope revision hell is easing up for you!
Just found your channel 😊 I really like your filming style its super pretty and cozy
Hi Kendra, thank you so so much!! ✨
I see you have a 603 sticker on your laptop and I must ask if you are in NH because that's where I live!! So I'm always excited to find someone else who might. 😅
Aw hello fellow 603er! I was raised in NH, and it is my home, but I currently live in Georgia. I usually stay in NH every summer and it's my favorite time of year 🌲🧡
When you're at the 20-minute mark trying to describe your fears, what it sounds like is that you sort of feel vulnerable wearing your heart on your sleeve in the way you've told this story. Would that be accurate?
Regardless of that, happy 14 out of 36 to you. 💙
Thank you so much! Yes, I think I've never poured so much love and hope into a project before, that now the vulnerable parts of the process feel even more so!

If you get stuck. Ask your friends to be a sound board. Or ask Bing AI questions.
Absolutely! I’ll have to check out Bing AI, that’s not something I’ve played with yet but sounds interesting!
@@AnnaRobbinsWrites yes its fun. If you tell the basic plot. The AI will generate questions about the plot. It helps with brainstorming.
