Welcome to another cozy writing vlog! In this one, I'm working on draft 6 of my fantasy novel, project tea cup. It is ALMOST DONE! Omg. We're so, so close now. I'm really excited to be almost at the stage where I can submit this to my literary agent. Again, I have no idea if this is the final draft before we send to publishers, but we shall see!
Take care everyone and I hope you enjoy the video! 💛

Thank you so much for being here everyone!! I'm very much in no-life mode on draft #6 now and I'm almost done with it and I feel like my brain is just about turned to mush. Take care and have a lovely Sunday :-) 💛

Fellow Aussie author :) it's a pleasure to connect and say hi :) (Red Scarf-Amazon) All the best with your novel too. Bye for now Alex :) Oh! We live in the same city, Christy I'm in the Barossa Valley.

the immediate, "I'm in Australia, it's autumn here" explanation to prevent the onslaught of your usual weather related comments had me giggling 😂

If you ever find a lost dog and you think they have a microchip, any local vet or animal shelter should have a reader that can find the owner! Of course that means actually getting the dog there (easier said than done). I'm generally a lurker but I've been following this series for a few years now and just wanted to say that I find you so inspiring and these videos deeply comforting. Thank you for doing what you're doing and sharing it and always for your candor. I look forward to the day project teacup is out in the world so I can finally read it :)

The autumn content is gorgeous, so relatable with stressing to find an owner for a lost pet

It's so nice having followed the channel for a few years now, to get to enjoy the cycles of your calendar. The yearly birthday week blog, the yearly trip to Sterling - it's so lovely to have these little recurring gems to look forward to ✨ "It doesn't mean that it's going badly, it just means that I care a lot" 💛

I'm on 5th draft of my fantasy novel and this is like rollercoaster' ride: there are days when I'm really proud of what I've written and days when I have imposter syndrom just like you. But my project hasn't been seen by beta readers yet.

I didn't know that Australia had few deciduous trees! And that is a beautiful street! I live in a place where there are tons of native deciduous trees, but it's still a pleasure every year to watch the colors bloom all over the neighbourhood. Never gets old. :)

Autumn is my favorite season. Much as I like spring, it was refreshing to see autumn colors.

Well done on the chapter surgery! Imposter syndrome is so normal and actually very healthy I think - being passionately invested in the work but in a very self-aware way, making sure that you never get complacent. Bug hitched a ride from Sterling, I reckon! 💚

@juliafonseca2131 Ай бұрын

Lovely video, Christy and I feel you! We don't experience autumn where I live so if I ever go somewhere that does (and it's the season) or whenever I see it in videos, movies, or books it feels like I am seeing (or reading) something magical happening! 🍁🍂🧡

Lovely video! Just wanted to say while I'm partial to spring ephemerals over autumn leaves, I'm still quite fond of them and loads of people love them and find them just as special where they're common in the US.

I love your way to re-write your draft. And this autumn vibe put balm on my soul (I'm in France where is spring, but it's raining all the time !). I love your dress, it's seem to be a sondeflor. I have same skincolor and same straight hair than you, and I think this sheckers brown-black will be my 4th dress. I will wait september to get it :) Bisou

I love you and I love watching your channel, it's just informative, lovely person you are, ambitious and you are contagious on some way I mean when I watch you I came back to my writing, such ambitious and serious author you are.
