Releasing My Second Novel📘| Guilty Celebration | Unintended Break | The Last Week of July Vlog
I really like these shorter vlogs. ❤ when I watch you, I don’t care about the music or the scenery. I just want to know what you’re up to. Blame my age. 😊😊😊
There are so many Agatha Christie books available in audio format here on the tube, and some readers are amazing (others...not so much) and whole channels dedicated to classical mysteries. Also, if you find a narrator you really like, try searching for what other books they've read, I've found some new favorite authors that way.
I second @theenthugger 's comment Im happy to hang out late at night we are here for you girl. You are so strong.
Oh my goodness, you are so young, you have reading goals??? Bless you.
💕💕💕💕
You have a lot in the works! Kudos! Paranormal sounds interesting. As for blurbs/summaries, tell your friends what the book is about and film that. You just summarized it. Clean it up, maybe reduce it a little and jazz up the sentences for the best impact, and you are done. :)
I’m glad you are still here with us. I think since you are an adult and a mother you are able to deal with her bad juju a lot better. You also are aware of it and you actively try to not let it affect you too much or for too long. That awareness makes you have more control than what you had the last time you were in her presence. I’m hoping the universe and God comes through for you consistently throughout 2025.
TWO PART VLOGS YES!!!!! (But also do NOT mind the length ❤)
❤❤❤ if you ever want to hang out backstage and do some poetry submissions together let me know!!
Omg yes! Absolutely!!! ❤❤
3:55 I'm putting the last days of December into my 2025 lol
First that is sooo much but also sounds soooo exciting. Second I'm stealing this as my idea for December's video.
By all means please do! I can't wait to see all your projects you've got going 😁😁
OMG 😂
16 projects! Wow lol you’ll have a lot of stories to keep you busy 😊
THIS ROUTINE REALLY WORKS!!! I’m so excited to see you develop this going forward ❤
JC, I love your facial expressions as you work through things. Paranormal? Yay!
Hey JC--msg sent to your IG name!
Margaret I don't have IG remember lol
@@AuthorJCCarpenter write2bmatters isn't you??
I like the chattiness, I put your video no and body double while your chatting. reminds me of when I worked in corp office and had other people working around me.
I hope you are feeling much better! Sending you all of the good vibes!
I hope December and Christmas are wonderful for you. I just give in to the cheese and chocolate for December 😂
Kinda loving the 'weird angle' 😂
I am impressed that you are doing December goals. Mine include staying upright and publishing a coloring book and maybe the 3rd Western romance. It may or may not go up this year.
📋 Your emoji Mama
As an Evermore fan, I am so disappointed… in THE SET LIST!!!! Honestly, she picked so many of my eh songs from the album (and took away some of my favorites in the revamp!!)
You are so sweet JC!!! I am now subbed to all these so I can check out their videos. Thank you for including me. If no one's told you today... YOU. ARE. AWESOME!!! 💙
I really hope things get easier for you soon x
💚💙⭐💚💙⭐
Great way to pay it forward. There are so many wonderful channels out there!!
So many great channels! 🎉❤
I can't wait to see what the new routine will look like once you work out the logistics! I'm sorry you're dealing with all the conditions you've been between your pain and mother. Here's hoping for a Christmas/New Year's miracle! 💙
This is so nice of you. I hope you have a good holiday too.
sending love ♥♥♥
I have been struggling to write and balance a full-time job, so what I gained from your video is that we can all afford to give ourselves some grace. Listen to your body, do what you can, and as much as you can and let it be enough. Let it be miraculous that you are feeding your artistry despite the pain. Pat yourself on the back for showing up everyday. That is enough. ❤❤❤
I'm at the beginning of the video. What happened to writing at the library, when you need to escape the apt?
Having to drag my laptop (which is quite heavy) back and forth is just not always physically feasible and it started to drain me even more. It became more exhausting than I had expected it to become and thus counterproductive. Not saying I won't do it again here and there but I can't do it as often as I was doing it before. Plus the gas to get back and forth isn't always manageable either.
Can you get a plug for the tire? It's been a while since I could drive, not really sure if those are still a thing. :-)
I read The Weight of Her on my Kindle. It's excellent.
Oooh! Book 5 sounds so exciting now that you've said all that. Dude! If I had an idea like that, I'd be skipping ahead and working on that because that makes my brain happy. I can't wait for 1-4 now JUST so I can read 5. 😂
Sending only good vibes. I felt seen when you talked about your frustration with RUclips and publishing. Your vlogs are some of my favorites because you are a real person going through real things. Don’t ever doubt your place. Thank you for always showing up! ❤❤❤
You have no idea how much your words mean to me and just how much I needed to hear them. Thank you so much! 🥰❤
It must be so frustrating not to be able to do the things you want to do.x Love the blurb.
If you look at the numbers for most authors who are not writing to trends, it takes 5 to 10 published books, in a single series to get steady sales. Authors who write stand-alone only, have a lot harder of a hill to climb to build up a reader base. I haven't seen any specific numbers for how long stand-alone on avg take. :-) Have you seen any research on sales for stand-alones?
The only people who I've seen talking about numbers with stand alones write to market, but this is exactly what I came to say. Those writing proficiently and pumping out book after book said that it took a minimum of 3 books in a series with other books (series or stand alones) or a completed series to start seeing constant traction of their books, and they were writing to trend. Not to say one way's better than another but just that they might find the same success easier or faster but it's definitely harder on them mentally and physically in the long run...
Love your blurb for book 5!
Girl no i like your vlogs I think there better then mine
The spines bones are labeled L 1-5 (plus some more letters and numbers) and tell us where the problem is specifically. Yes they are different arthritis but they can overlap Always feel free to ask me questions you have my number I don't mind i don't know everything but sometimes it helps to understand
Also whats the name of her second web series? First was Dorm dairies
Thanks so much I finally watched this Do you still have masterclass ? Iam interesting in singer’s songwriters on there Alica keys ,usher & Christina Aguilera
Just so you know I watch your vlog and think the same thing. wow your life is more interesting than mine, you go out of your home, and you do all these things I can't do. :-) You get more done in a week than I do. It's all perspective. You got lots of words! Congrats!
Omg the debate about when to eat was so relatable 😂
I also love vlogging and wish I was better at it. Le sigh...
I felt all the "I just need the money to pay my team". I have 4 cover artists I would love to keep on retainer, at least one editor, and possibly a couple other people. I'd love someone else to take over the social media for me.
You’re amazing! I’m so happy for you and love watching your content. So congenial! Sure your ideas are phenomenal queen!
awww i'm so honoured to have a vlog appearance <3
The honor is definitely mine Anna! ❤❤🥰🥰
Right I felt that way too when she takes clips of my streams
