  • Welcome back to another writing vlog! Camp NaNoWriMo has ended, and we're somehow in May already, yikes! I did a lot of editing, outlining on some new books, and continued to struggle with getting the Nightfallen Kickstarter going. 😂 At least the campaign for the Wind and the Wild is set up nicely. 😊 Thank you all so much for watching, let me know how Camp NaNo went for you! 💕

    You’re so inspiring! A one woman publishing house, you do so much.

    I actively sighed as I mentally put aside at least $100 for the fantasy romance stuff. Because girl, you and your art have me in a freaking chokehold 😭.
    I’m super excited! The title is absolutely beautiful. And now I can’t wait for project bear and will now be fangirling over that as soon as it starts getting worked on.
    And dang, the plush stuff sounds like a nightmare 😭. But, the prototype stuff on the kickstarter looked super cute! So I hope you know your suffering is not in vain. Hopefully if you do the Bat plushie, it will go easier.
    And the art you showed? *chief’s kiss*. Although I’m already crying for you over how much art you planned 😂. My prayers for lack of hand cramps and artblock are with you.
    Now sister quotes! Because I don’t have anything else to say 😂
    “I just imagine the moment Lor is upset with Iohmar because he wouldn’t give him something or was busy he literally just throws grass at him because it seems he has a vendetta against grass and I stand with him on it. He angry therefore you get a face full of grass. And moss. Bro hates moss.”
    (…. I can’t keep up with this anymore. I mean… i will. But she just says so many funny things. I am also now working on the art of Lor attacking his father with butterflies bookmark based off of her quotes because she demanded it. And it will then spark more quotes. It’s a vicious cycle)

      Ahahaha hopefully they won't be that expensive! I'm very excited to eventually put it together!
      My new company seems very professional, so it's going smoother now, the waiting just seems extra long since it's already been pushed out so much 😂 It'll work out........eventually. Haha!
      So. Much. Art. I'm gonna hate myself for it eventually, but it'll be worth it 😂
      Your sister is hilarious, as usual. 🤣 The opportunities for funny baby Lor revenge are many when you've got nature magic. 😊 😂

    That bird was CONSISTENT. Like the lungs on that dude~
    Want to thank you for these vlogs. They are so motivating and drags me out of my rut every time.

      RIGHT??? I barely even heard him when I was filming, he sounded so much louder when I went to edit 😂
      Thank you!!

    I feel you on the plushie fiasco. But hope it all gets sorted for you! Hope the kickstarters go well!

    14:40 I really really like this. The lighting, the books, the debris on the window. The color choice and various shades. This must've taken forever to get this perfect. Emily this is really really immersive

    Attitude? I didnt see any attitude, I saw someone who looks exhausted and at times looks like she was on the verge of crying. From listening to you I feel like you are trying so so hard Emily. I pray all your hard work will pay off. Sending you a big hug Emily, Happy Writing🩵

      Thanks! That art piece was surprisingly easy compared to some of the others, haha!

    Which type of editor do you use and how many passes do you do with them before publishing your story? I keep going back and forth on which type of editor I should use (developmental or line edits or copy edits) whenever I get around to it since I'll most likely be able to afford only one
    What would you recommend? Looking forward to your next kickstarter

    • @EmilyMcCosh

      I have a line editor! I think she does something a little between a line and a copy edit, as most of my changes are punctuation and things like repetition or words that could be stronger. Personally, I have never used a dev editor as I get by between my own edits and getting opinions from beta readers. If you can only go with one, I would personally recommend a line editor! Thanks! :)

    I see an Emily video, I click 😍 I think I’m obsessed it’s all of your videos.
    Listening to this whilst scrubbing the net for literary magazines to submit short stories to 🤍
