      Yes, these videos are HUGELY inspirational! I am attempting to finish my second novel to be published with a newborn at home, my third, and watching another mom rock the Mommy author life helps SO much on the days when I just wanna quit. Thank you so much for sharing everything, even the struggles

    I'm loving the Nano diaries and being able to see a little bit more into how you handle things behind the scenes. And since they tend to come in the evening, they're the perfect reminder for those days when I haven't had a chance to get words in yet, like today, lol. Since I refuse to have a zero day this month, I'm gonna try to get in at least 100 words tonight. Here's hoping it'll turn into more! Good luck with the editing!

    I try to get all my writing done in the mornings when it is quieter in the house. My son is at school my daughter is still in her room getting ready for her day of virtual learning. But sometimes I will get that flash of "I have to get this written" in the evenings. I love this video series and it helps remind me that even if i only get 300 words it counts and I am showing up and still writing. Thank you so much! Can't wait for the 2021 planner to come out!

    I love watching these vlogs. I’ve been stuck in a plotting hole, so words aren’t happening right now. But some good news. We got an offer on our house, so that’s a huge weight lifted. I can’t wait to see your evening routine. That’s the time I struggle with most. I’m finally getting into an evening journaling habit, but some days it’s hard.

    We decorated our outside this past weekend, it was in the 70s up here in Chicago and we did NOT want to miss out on that. Normally if we're decorating for Christmas it will be either in the 20s or lower so we definitely took advantage of that nice weather. Inside the house, we probably won't put up our Christmas tree until the day after Thanksgiving just because we won't have room to have our immediate family over for turkey dinner if we put up our tree now. :P Keep up the amazing work! I'm currently behind, but hoping to catch up soon!

    I write at night more than in the morning. I now write for 15 minutes in the late morning but don't start again until after six. I've got over 15, 000 words for Nano so far, so I'm a little behind but I believe I'll catch up in time.

    Yup yup! We're going to decorate for Christmas starting next week. The weekend will be removing the Halloween decorations (yes, we still have those, bring some happiness and fun to this year).
    As for when I right, night owl all the way. Though it's been hard what with the exhaustion I've been feeling these past weeks. It hasn't let up yet but I'm hoping to being able to get more words in in the next few days than I have since the beginning of the month.

I think I might put some together as a give away when I start uploading videos on my channel. What would be you advice? stay safe and take care.

On the 23 it's my son birthday, so it will be extra special. Oh and by the way, my reward since Nano started, is to watch your vlogs. Annd, my reward if get to write those 50k words, is a brand new gaming keybord 😁

      When you're logged in to the NaNo site, click the "My Nanowrimo" in the link menu across the top. That will drop down a sub-menu, and from there you choose "Stats - Track your writing progress". That will land you on the page Sarra shows, with all of your updates, progress, daily word count, etc. :)

    I really need to get my planning organised. I just tend to bumble through and then wonder why I never get enough done. I just always find that pre-printed planners are so restrictive. I tried Bullet Journalling cause that's like the ultimate unrestricted planner, right, but I find it tedious to have to draw out my layouts each week.

    I’m curious since you love to plan if that gets in the way of actually doing things that are planned? I know you have your planners and then you have your kanban board plus that new board on the other wall which seems like a lot. So I’m curious what is the difference between them all? Congrats on hitting 20k!

    • @HeartBreathings
      @HeartBreathings  4 года назад +3

      It's all part of the same process. The Kanban is the list of tasks from my HB90 system, so each week when I'm creating the task list I go back to board and figure out what I'll do, add it to the planner, and then schedule it out. The new board is just an overview. I'm not actively planning on it. I just use it to see the full quarter at a glance.
