"I am under no obligation to make sense!" 😂 This brought a smile to my face!

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Haha, I love it!

[@colorsofavon934]

Robin is so cute too!

[@un_becoming]

Yes accepting oneself as a writer matters. I have started writing a cookbook recently ..fingers crossed😊

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Oh that sounds like a lovely project! :)

[@ronpatton9424]

I also keep a notebook handy. Have done so for years. Great tip.

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Its so handy!

Hello Molly, thanks so much for this video! I would definitely love more videos about writing and content creating as it's something that I've been wanting to do myself. I've felt so inspired by your KZbin channel and Substack to start laying the groundwork for a career change that would allow me to live a slower life on my own terms, so any advice you can give I would welcome! Have a great week ☺

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Aw I'm so glad you enjoyed! I do tend to talk a bit more about this on my Substack, so I've included a link in case you haven't seen them :) hippyhighlandliving.substack.com/t/slow-creative-career

Thank you Molly for another lovely video.💙

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Thank you!

[@FionaDickinsonMusic]

Ah that's my friend Marlee! What a small world of collective softlings. ☁✨

[@suzannerobertson416]

More on writing please Can you give the recipe for your stew please as it looked so yummy

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Its just one I make up - I cook one red onion, some garlic & a courgette. Then add a tin of chopped toms & a tin of coconut milk for 10 mins. Then a tin of rinsed butters beans (any white bean will do) for 5 mins and its done :)

[@obiblooze5902]

@@hippyhighlandliving will be trying this too 🙂

[@adamlogan7340]

Hi Molly, It was fascinating to get an insight into your writing regime & how you schedule writing habits into daily life with purpose. Hope you have enjoyed the mini heatwave, & have a lovely week ahead.🙂

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Thank you!

[@bolonkinaanna]

It's so inspiring for me! Thank you very much. Waiting another writing theme videos 😊

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Oh I'm so glad! I love talking about it :)

[@wolfhealer4296]

Another fantastic vlog with rainy weather Molly. It's been sunny since the beginning of September in my area with the exception of Wednesday 6th September so we are probably due rain. Love 🥰 the vlog and love 💕Molly.

Hi Molly, I would be very interested in hearing more about writing. I was in my small woodland during the summer and took my notebook so I could write down all the trees, wild flowers and birds etc I noticed. I am writing about what I see there each season. However I do find that days do tend to go by without me writing even a few lines which is not good. I would like to have more of a routine in order to write more. Thank you and have a lovely week!

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Thank you for sharing! Yes, having a sense of a routine really does help me :)

[@un_becoming]

Thank you for the wonderful tips ❤

[@bettymaugeri7316]

I never go outside to walk when its raining - I need to venture out in all weather - just dress appropriately ☔️

[@hippyhighlandliving]

I used to be like that but I've learnt to love the rain :)

[@jacquiheywood3142]

That was a really interesting video.

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Thank you :)

[@jannybranciforte9295]

Always such a lovely visit. Thank you Molly!☺️🙏

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Thank you!

[@katrina3407]

Just a warning. I know it is nicer to write in a notebook but many of my notebooks have been destroyed because I carry them everywhere with me in my bag and usually a flask with a drink in, in my bag too. More than one time now I have been devastated because my drink has spilled in my bag, destroying everything and many memories. 😫

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Oh that is a shame! I bear that in mind :)

[@madelinevegas8123]

I Love all your videos I’m watching from the USA NYC ❤

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Thank you!

[@heathermcelroy3303]

Hi. I enjoy your videos. As a fellow vegan I really enjoy seeing other people’s recipes….your bean and courgette soup looked wonderful. I look forward to more cookery lessons, and walks in nature with you

[@delphinebatailleroche2622]

J’aimerais justement me lancer dans l’écriture, merci pour cette vidéo inspirante Molly ! Salutations de France 👋

[@Rosalind2024]

Thank you Molly, great video ❤

[@cgcvinyl]

I need to buy a portable notebook to write my thoughts. I do have an online diary I post on fairly regularly but there's something more personal and connecting by writing by hand.

[@hippyhighlandliving]

I love to do a mix of both :)

[@ruebennomura9143]

You are a good writer and love your vegan much tales good

[@paperpalacequeen]

Hi Molly, thanks for a wonderful video🌸

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Thank you!

[@efortunywhitton]

Inspiring as-always, Molly... :) I am subscribed to Skillshare and love-it; have been watching the watercolor classes and practicing. I also got your Notion PDF via Etsy and have really been enjoying that as well! This last-weekend, I got organized with all my books; & I set-up the other areas of Notion as well; excellent stuff!! I've always enjoyed writing, but alas, time is never with me... In the Notion habit tracker I've added the things I aim to do each day/week/month; instead of the things I have to do: work/chores, etc. I have: piano, Italian, journal, read, yoga/pilates, cardio, art/creative endevours, geography... anyway, it's been an excellent organizational tool!! 😊

[@hippyhighlandliving]

Ah Notion really is fantastic! I don't know how I organised my life without it! :)

What free post did you say to go to. To write free Newletters? Please answer soon. Be waiting from you.

[@nancyhollingworth7729]

Another lovely vlog. I'm craving some cooler weather now! Just a couple of things though. Notion is not end to end encrypted and do you think you could do book links to say Waterstone's or another independent book store? Amazon is an awful company.

[@MyQueendomCome]

Hi, where did you get your lovely wooden drying wrack for your dishes?

[@hippyhighlandliving]

I think it was from Dunelm, but got it years ago so not sure!

[@goldentapir]

Everything changed...so sorry 😢

[@user-jr2qf6iv3j]

Talk more about your writing.

[@Nate1975]

You make it sound simple with regards to having this as a job on Substack but is it really? More videos may be on your experience? Been writing for years yet the whole driving subscribers in is near impossible.

[@hippyhighlandliving]

I wrote a bit more about my experience on my Substack, if you want to check it out :) - hippyhighlandliving.substack.com/p/what-it-really-takes-to-be-a-successful

[@Nate1975]

Can I ask if you earn money with your writing?

[@goldentapir]

You used to be authentic...

[@sarahmacrae8277]

It is authentic to be honest that you have to earn money to live and you can't work at anything including content creation for free
