    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! 💛

    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 :)

    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.

    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! 💚

    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!

    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
