Hope you enjoy today's video on getting started with those edits! Let me know what you think about a 40k special video! And come join our Word Sprints Challenge and the Publish And Thrive Course. Links in the description.
So timely - I just finished assessing my scenes for my wip Jabberwocky's Curse. I think I'm going to use my giant sticky paper and put up on my wall so i can really see where I need to make the changes in the story.
No! NO! I am not ready. I see it's over 20 minutes vid of awesomeness. I need my pyjamas and my tea for this. See you in a bit! Cant wait!
🎉🎉🎉 FORTY THOUSAND....CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎉🎉 I remember the time when there were only 300+ of us here. I was able to binge-watch all your videos then and was done in about 3 days. I think anyone who attempts that now would need 3 months (at a rate of 8 hrs/day) to watch all your videos! I am so, so, SO HAPPY for you, Sarra. You deserve all this, and more! 💖
I'd love to see the story of the channel and what made you decide to create a channel in the first place! Congrats on 40k!! I have only been here since last year but have probably binged hours of your content.
Congrats on 40K subscribers!! I would love a video on craft - you write such great battle scenes, could you do a vid on writing action/fight/battle scenes?
Thank you so much, really needed this. Struggling with Edits and hating everything I'm writing. Good luck everyone. Stay safe.
Thank you for the video! 🥰. I’m on my final editing for my NaNo book! Just got the proof in the mail and am preparing to run through it with a red pen. 😉. It’s called Redeemed, and will be published March 1st on Amazon! So excited!
Loved the vid. I am stuck at 50k words but only half way in. This got me motivated to finish
Hi Sarra! Thank you so much for this video. I 'won' NaNoWriMo a year ago in 2019 and literally haven't read my novel since I typed the last words that November 30th. I think it's been anxiety holding me back this past year. I'm determined to finally read through my story and start the editing process. I watched a lot of videos on how to edit a novel, but yours is the first that makes me feel excited instead of anxious or scared. 💕 Thank you for acknowledging the hard feelings that come with the process but also for the reminder that it will be ok and you will be happier on the other side. ☺
It doesn't seem so astronomical now, thank you so much
Congrats on 40k!!
Sarra, I can't thank you enough for sharing this! I'm doing some of these steps but struggling with others. Light bulbs were going off all over the place when I was thinking about how I'm editing and why I've stalled. Hugs and blessings! I appreciate you so much!
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I am so guilty of obsessing over the entire editing process that I’ve even tried to do it like Stephen King & edit as I go, only to end up feeling like ‘crap this isn’t good enough, who will ever want to read this?’ Small bite sized chunks. Genius. Thank you again!
I click so fast when I see a Sarra video. I’m editing now so this is perfect timing. Lol
I’m so excited for P&T!
My NaNo novel is a bit of both “unfinished” and “the plot got away from me”, mostly because the latter caused the former. I knew where I wanted to end up but my characters had no intention of following my plan. I had certain plot points happen three different times because I couldn’t decide. In December, I decided I liked the story enough to see it through so I went back to the drawing board and re-outlined. I’m about 8k into the new draft and am actually salvaging parts of my first draft! I think this time I’ll be able to see it to the end and (hopefully) publish it by the end of the year or early next year
Why do our characters do this to us?? haha. So happy to hear you are back on track and seeing it through!
@@HeartBreathings I know, it's so frustrating! I'm really enjoying the process though
This has nothing to do with nano but I wanted to thank you for pushing me through the last few months! I finally self-published my first children’s book and your videos helped me get through the last push!
I’m slowly working on my 2nd draft!!! These tips were helpful:)
Thank you, Sarra. Your tips will be help me a lot when it was the time for me to editing my writing. :-)
Yeah my nano book went waay off the rails. Changed the villain halfway through, changed the magic system, changed some of the characters. But I'm still feeling somewhat optimistic about the edit... thanks for the timely video.
Yay! I've been looking forward to this video since you announced it on your insta stories! So glad it's finally here 🤩
Thank you for this video!! I feel better equipped to tackle my hot mess of a novel 🤪
I'm re-outlining but editing sounds so much better. Thanks! 🤗👍
I started editing my nano draft at the start of this month, just going from the beginning and it has been struggle city. This video is so helpful! I realize now that I'm still missing scenes and not fully clear on the direction and so going line by line I'm still a bit skewed and possibly changing too much. Thank you! I can't wait to take a fresh look at it now and give this process a try!
Thank you so much for this video! I have 2 1st drafts of 2 manuscripts to edit in a series and was feeling a bit overwhelmed. 😀💖
Congratulations! The 40k milestone is so well deserved - you have inspired me to pursue my dreams - writing and otherwise, and given me a structure to manage those goals/ O look forward to seeing you continue to flourish.
Last week I dug out my old Mac that has OS9. I found two rough draft manuscripts on it that I thought I lost. Alas! Apple has updated its word processing software from AppleWorks to Pages. So I can’t put them on my newer mac. I’ve been re-typing the old manuscripts into my newer mac. Almost done. This video will be so helpful when I start editing in about a week! Thanks so much for making these videos!
Congrats on 40k!! I'm so grateful for all the inspiration and knowledge that you share. Thank you!! I would love a video on theme and how you work it alongside your character and plot development. I feel like I have pretty good structure, my characters are coming along, but when I write my rough draft, the theme I thought I was writing doesn't come out. So what do I do? What's wrong with my planning? Thanks so much!!
That's just the video I needed to watch. Thank you for the inspiration you offer in each of your videos. Happy writing, publishing and thriving 😄
Excellent content! Love your channel! So inspiring-A+ teacher 😁
This is exactly what I need!! I keep taking part in nano then shoving it in a digital drawer and never reading it again. 😂 this is so helpful. Thx ☺️
Girl, SAME! 😂 you're not alone !
I just finished my nano novel! This video is perfect for me! I star editing on Monday, giving myself a little break... Thanks, Sarra! 🥰🍰🥳
Yay!!! Thank you Sarra!!
I am a 12-year-old kid hoping to become an author. I've already written a feature-length novel for my friends (50-60 pages); now I'm busy working on a much larger project that I'm hoping to publish, and I'd just like to thank you for making me a better author every day. Thanks :)
I love these videos and always look forward to seeing a new video pop up from you. Thanks Sarra!!!
Congratulations on 40,000 subscribers! Wow! I'd love to a video devoted to the history of your channel. How and why you decided to begin it, and all the ups and downs, difficulties and triumphs, and how you go about filming, how its scripted and what's changed technically over the years. You're doing a super job, Sarra, in so many ways! Again, congrats!! Delighted to hear Fate's Surrender is a huge success. :)
this is really helpful so far :) thank you!
Feb 7th is my birthday!!
Thank you for this advice! 😄
40k🥳🌟🎆
I do that scene/chapter outline as part of the draft, after I finished the chapter or scene, while it's still fresh in my mind. It goes into my novel journal...and I do add notes, things I need to look up, research or add. But the novel is still a mess...
Loved this video thank you Sarra. I do want to take Publish and Thrive - but can’t make it this round. When will the next course be offered? Do you offer this course once every season?
My laptop died in November due to a malicious update. So.... I did not finish. :(
Oh no :( I'm so sorry to hear this.
@@HeartBreathings Thanks! I was able to restore twice in October, postpone the update for a max of 30 days, and the third time would not let me restore. The update also attacked my old computer that was running Windows 10. I asked my brother to try to reinstall Windows, and he did. :) I still haven’t gotten it back yet, but Thank God I bought an iPad right before November.
Just got to page 120 of book one of Beautiful Demons! So far I wanna punch Tori a bit, the police scene got my heart racing, and the J dude BETTER end up with Harper or imma riot.
Iv been listing to this book all day on Apple Books. I got a lot done. I went out to eat, designed a sticker, stared off to space imagining the story lol. Love the book so far!
How many drafts is too many? My book has been through multiple drafts, but now I want to take the next step. I want 2021 to be my year to publish my book!
Yes do it! My first book was far from perfect - the sequel will be so much better - but I have no regrets publishing in 2020. You’ve got it :)
Will you do one of this for after nanowrimo 2021
💗💗💗
