    I think Sarah Sutton was trying to get her focus back as she's been struggling with several challenges over the last months. I watch both of you and I love to see you credit her for your inspiration to push to your goal. I have an over-written WIP and am on 176k words that I've been ignoring and at some point I'll have to to do the massive edit, but I won't do that until I finish it and I've stalled. All power to you editing 20-30k from DE!

    I remember feeling so proud of being able to write 20,000 words (about 2/3 of my first novella) in two months. The thought of doing that in a matter of weeks is terrifying 😂but anything is possible and I wish you all the power to get your draft done!!!!

    Good morning, Sara and happy Thursday. You would have to write 2,857.15 words a day to make 20,000.05 in 7 days. I'm watching the vlog right now. I like pancakes, but I'm a die-hard fan for waffles and French toast. Anyway, have a nice day and happy editing. ❤

    I’m rewriting my teleplay (again) so I get it. It’s tedious sometimes, but I’m trying to see my project as something newer than a few years old. It’s fun, too, but I have so many subplots. 😭😅👍🏻

    Uh oh .... roughly 2 years ago you said you were splitting DE into separate books so you could get it under 100K. Under those circumstances, I hope your character removal during this pass gets you most of the way there.
    9:30 and 10:00 Yeah, sometimes it's one of those "just get out of the house" moments.
    Congrats on the 97-minute run. I'm very glad you didn't do that madness outside in Utah.
    Banana walnut pancake!! I already know how well it goes with syrup, and I guarantee you 2 of those pancakes is worth 10 waffles.
    25:45 That landscape is another win. (Minus the wind.) Getting to see your hikes is nice.

    • @SaraLubratt
      @SaraLubratt  5 месяцев назад

      Lol I'm pretty sure deciding to make DE a series and not a book was over 4 years ago. I will have to give banana walnut pancakes another go on their own pancake night when I don't want chocolate chips lol. Thanks for watching!!

    Hey Sara, I just finished an hour Session where I wrote 2 Pages. I've been writing a lot and I still don't know if I should Publish it because here in my Country you have to pay to Publish your work unlike in the U.S. but I will keep writing no matter what.

    Hey. Remember the editor sees your manuscript as a draft. Don't worry about the word count too much. If it is too long they will cut it, with your approval. They are firstly and primarily looking for a good story.

    wait until you've discovered mug pancakes--it's vegan and literally takes me 5 minutes to make (and sometimes I put strawberries!!)

    Omg 555 at 16:25. I'm not sure what the meaning is but maybe you could weigh in on that meaning.
    I like banana chocolate chip pancakes (and muffins). I love french toast the most, but eat the most waffles due to convince of the freezer aisle. I don't think they are vegan but I get the Van's Apple Cinnamon waffles. A plus is they are gluten free.

    I’ve decided pancakes make all videos better. Blueberry pancakes are especially magical.
    I wanted to leave a link to a video that another writer posted, because I immediately thought of you and the challenges you’ve tried. Especially after seeing you edit a mind blowing amount of words in one week, I figured it might be worth a shot: ruclips.net/video/2jSOHV16l0c/видео.htmlsi=dXaAmjViCJdD1295
