I love the features of Milanote. I remember signing up for it and setting everything up, but the free version had a 100-item limit (item being every single image, list, link). It was brutal because brainstorming can be so much messier than that 😭

hi ana! well, i've been wanting to discuss this for some time, but i lacked the courage. so, here it goes: i'm a writer from brazil (yes, your channel has reached here), and i've been following your videos for almost a year because they are quite inspiring to me! whenever i need motivation or a bit of encouragement for my projects, i turn to watch your content. now, i'm not sure if it's possible, but could you kindly consider adding english subtitles to your videos? unfortunately, my english fluency isn't quite sufficient to grasp everything you say solely by listening, and relying on automatic subtitles for better comprehension can be somewhat challenging. so, if you could, at the very least, include well-crafted english subtitles, i would greatly appreciate it! i truly adore your channel and its inspiring content (i'm even binge-watching them for my current project), and i find you to be an incredible individual! i hope your channel continues to thrive, and you make further strides in your writing career. warm regards from a fan in brazil! :)

helloo sorry this will be long but. I'm 15 and i want to be a writer and a poet, my dad was a poet at my age, he wanted to make a book but he couldn't because my mum threw awa all this notes because she didn't understand he and i are introverts she is an extrovert. I went to this careers meeting and at the start it went well but down the line i went quiet . she showed me my grades. i stated i want to be a writer and an artist. but she stated " yea you can do that part time" i don't want to should i give up what i love for a job. creativity saved my life as a child i can't go a day without writing my thoughts my feelings from the heart. i have tones of books to read. writing doesn't make money or as much so I'm scarred. that broke me so so so much because i have to loose myself to get a job. i don't know who i am anymore, what should i do i don't know. my dreams are just dreams. they are unrealistic. my brother wants to be a soft wear engineer and a basketballer " that's realistic you can make it " but for me life says no. please help

You should study still because the plan is you should have a steady job and do writing as part time till your book gets attention THAN you should move to a full time writer it's smarter in many ways♡

Honestly, I think you should do whatever interests you. Speaking for myself, I love fictional stories from the Middle Ages, the 18th century, and even the 19th century. If you choose to write your book set in the 19th century, there will be people who love it.
