    Considering the years you have worked on this book spending a month to polish it is not too much.

    Besides the exercise benefits, I find that walking outside gets me out of the dense fog of normal, high pressure life. I can think clearly and solve a lot of problems just by getting out of the house and walking around. I can only imagine what hiking on mountain trails does for you!

    Hey girly, have you used a copy/line editor for any of your work thus far?!

      I have not, I had beta readers and I had some friends help me edit the first chapters but other than that, no

    Yeah I am not a believer of chiropractors. Go with the massage next time. Your hiking always makes me want to go outside and hike, but I definitely don't have your views. I'm in the Chicago area. I'm also not really in the best shape, but I'm hoping to do a bit of hiking this summer maybe walk some trails we have nearby or perhaps I might be able to get adventurous and try one of the Parks like Rock Cut. Idk, we shall see. Congrats on your continued progress with your Draft 7.

    Good morning, Sara and happy Friday! I'm very proud of you for what you've accomplishment with Project DE, but I'm also sorry for the kink you had in your neck. And I can't wait to read when it is published. I also finished draft 2 of my manuscript and proofreading it myself, as I've started working on my other one which might be a series, just like the Goosebumps series. Anyway, have a lovely day, happy hiking and reading draft 7. ❤✌

    Sorry to hear about your neck! If going to the doctor is not an option, you could try having some B complex vitamins. I've been prescribed that for pinched nerves in the past, so it could help. Energy drinks like monster and the like have that vitamin blend, so maybe you could give it a try that way. I've also used some over the counter desinflammatories like Ibuprofen. Hope you feel better soon!
    It's really cool to hear about your editing process. I'm really pumped up for this book so I hope it all goes well! 🙌

    • @SaraLubratt
      @SaraLubratt  4 месяца назад

      I don't know what I doctor could do for it :/ I have an appointment with a myofascial release specialist who might have the best chance at helping me out with something like this. B vitamins... that's an interesting idea, I'll have to look into that. Thank you for your suggestions!

    For me it's pillows. If mine is too soft or too low, I wake up with a stiff neck. I use a stack of folded blankets for firmness and height adjustability.

      It felt more like a pinched nerve :/ I’m still trying to get it to fully go away but it’s like 90% better

    You're an inspiration, Sara. I've never seen someone so dedicated to their book share their journey. It's really awesome to see. Big request: Any chance you can do a video that talks about what you changed between drafts (generally speaking). And any advice you'd give yourself to past!sara in each of those stages? I think that would be such a cool video to see all the growth and lessons learned through your hopefully debut novel. Look forward to reading this when you publish it.

    • @SaraLubratt
      @SaraLubratt  5 месяцев назад

      Yes!! I’m planning on making a video about that when I’m done with draft 7! I definitely learned some things about myself and how I need to write in the future

    hey i'm relatively early!
    the first example, those 3 words didn't seem wholly unnecessary, i liked them actually. aesthetically pleasing, and all that. but it's your call :)
    the 2nd example, i agree with you completely.

    • @SaraLubratt
      @SaraLubratt  5 месяцев назад
