I spend the first 90 minutes of every day writing about 900 words in my novel. This way, I finished the first draft of my YA suspense/thriller in just ten weeks. Here's a look at a typical morning. Stay tuned to see more of my author journey!

I would love to hear how your novel is doing now! Did you publish it? This was so inspiring to me as a university student juggling a lot at school and extracurriculars while working through my novel at the same time! Thank you!

This video couldn't have popped into my recommendations at a better time! I'm currently taking a fiction writing workshop course for college, and this week I have to have my rough draft for my short story in at the end of the week. To say I've been procrastinating is a total understatement. Now I feel a little more motivated after watching your video. Thank you!

Hey robin I'm a younger viewer and would love to offer some advice from someone who's watched a LOT of youtube! First, this was great I loved the editing! A lot of KZfaqrs put some item links in their video descriptions. That way you don't get a bunch of comments asking where you got your keyboard or alarm clock (something I would like to know as well). This is really cool and I can't wait to see more videos from you!

Thanks for the feedback :) Good idea for a topic! When I made this video, I had a spare bedroom set up as my office/writing space. Since then, my situation has changed, so might have to revisit the topic.

I couldn't help but laugh a little at the word count. As a complete over-writer myself, I don't ever try to reach any word goals, but only quality goals to keep my over-writing rambling to a minimum. lol. My first book... I've literally cut away 34,600 words as of today, and I'm still cutting. XD And it's still too long. I wish I could live like you, just getting up and writing. It's a dream for the future for sure. :)
