I'M DONE WRITING MY BOOK!!! // Finishing Edits On My Fantasy Novel

[@tristanycorgan]

I just want to say that some of your old NaNoWriMo videos really helped push me to start writing a novel back in 2022, and now I’m querying agents and getting some interest in my manuscript! I’ve loved following your journey over the last few years and I’m excited to watch what happens next!💞

[@vc8180]

WE ARE WITH YOU TILL THE END!, YOU GO GIRL!!!!!. I have waited 4 years to read your masterpiece😍🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@SaraLubratt]

Can’t wait for you to read it!!! 🥳

[@ananeu]

cookie breaks getting sara to the end of the effing book >>

[@SaraLubratt]

Cookie breaks get me through everything😂

[@brinaphillips5645]

I'm so freaking proud of you, Sara!! Been watching you for years, it's amazing to see you finally achieve a finished book. Can't wait to hear how publishing goes xx

[@SaraLubratt]

Thank you!!! 🥳🥳

[@Cannibalable]

Congratulations Sara! Your dedication and discipline to realise your book after so many years is truly admirable. Please don't spend the next nine years designing the effing cover! 😀

[@SaraLubratt]

😂 I hope nothing will ever take this long to finish moving forward!

[@writingwithkatelyn]

I cannot express how absolutely proud of you I am! :) Sticking to one project for so long is an insane feat, but us writers are ANYTHING but completely sane, anyway 😂It's going on about 7 years since I first had the idea for my WIP, but this winter I'm planning on finishing the 3rd draft (which will be the last total rewrite draft!!) and beginning my search for beta readers. Congrats on this amazing milestone in your writing journey, can't wait to see more from you

[@DianeMariee]

This video made my heart SO happy! So fucking proud of you Sara! 😭🙌🏻✨🙏🏻💕 So excited to witness the rest of your journey. You’re going to do incredible things. Thank you for showing up for your art and sticking with it all these years. You’re golden! 🫶🏻✨

[@williamblakehall5566]

Congratulations, and THANK YOU. This gives me an excellent sense of getting on with one's life while steadily accounting to the project. This is the "endgame" of a book within the narrative of a diary. Nine years!? I'm impressed. I beat up on myself for having had my concept for five years, so this helps me feel much better, because I hope I've reached a point where I simply put a lot of jigsaw pieces together. I may pay more visits to the library! Thank you, seriously, this is inspiring.

[@themultxverse4248]

So happy for you!! You're so inspiring!! I love seeing your journey and can't wait for your book to come out one day!!🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽

[@shebreathesingold8043]

Congrats, Sara! This is a massive, massive accomplishment. I've watched your entire journey and have a huge smile on my face right now. You were so diligent and thoughtful through it all. It was beautiful to see. And no pressure on this part, but I wonder if you'd at all have the time to do a sort of retrospective video on your 9 year journey, from beginning to end, just sharing the dates, stats, revision experiences (briefly), how the story evolved, especially when you introduced plot structure to your book because I remember that "era" of yours where you were making massive structural changes and I was always curious to know more about your process and the biggest lessons you took away from that as well as the overall journey!

[@billychambers6400]

Oh nice!!!! Congrats! Love to see this

[@SaraLubratt]

🥳🥳🥳

[@kass4017]

Congratulations on finishing Project DE! It’s a huge accomplishment! I know I’m excited to read DE when it comes out! Also I wanted to say Thank You for posting your writing journey! You’ve been such an inspiration to me and I’m sure others to keep writing!

[@myriahinthelibrary]

I'm late watching this video, but I wanted to comment anyway to say congratulations!!! I teared up with you while watching this 🥲I found your channel and started watching your videos last year, and you have been such a big source of inspiration for me with my own writing. It has been such a honor and a privilege to get to be part of your journey in this way and I am so happy for you 💖🎉 I can't wait to read your work one day, and until then, I am so excited to see what's next!

[@mbwebster1838]

lol, I’m tearing up with you, never mind that we’ve never met 😂 You should be SO SO proud of yourself for sticking with this near-decade long journey and Completing it!!! Yaaayyy!!!! So excited for whatever comes next 🎉

[@anandaferraresi]

OMG I smiled so hard seeing this video thumbnail! Congrats, Sara! It's been so good to accompany you on your writing journey, it feels like we all grew up together somehow. Now, off to the next chapter! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@terralynsanden5952]

Congratulations! Keep up the great work; and remember, patience and perseverance are two virtues that are highly recognized when put forth into practice. It makes me really hope and pray that I will finish my book as well one of these days.

[@AnggiSahamCantik]

Congratz! I follow you since you were 10k or so. It's been great to see your journey and I'm happy for you! Finishing a book is a big achievement! 🎉❤

[@Indeed999]

It's been wonderful to watch this journey unfold. You should be very proud of yourself for tackling this project in a genre that's known for its difficulty and commitment. Thanks for taking us along and I can't wait to see what comes next.

[@SDHegyes]

I'm late but so proud of you!!! Congrats on finishing the friggin' book!!! 💙

[@OldRod99]

"Look at my view right now" I had some relatives that lived in Pleasant Grove, UT - I remember visiting them back in the 70s and loving the scenery. It's a great area!

[@SaraLubratt]

Utah is the best!!

[@bertelxi7344]

Congratulations! I've been following your progress on and off for 2 years and you've been so inspiring. Can't wait to read it some day

[@storiesbydesirae]

Yay!! Congratulations, Sara. I love how you celebrate yourself with the spin dance. I'm glad dreams are becoming a reality for you and that you've stuck with your book for 9 years. I stuck with my book for 14 years. It had a completely different plot when I first started. I rewrote it completely around 2020. I debuted it this year and that moment you had watching the sunset, I had that feeling of wanting to do this for the rest of my life after dropping off pre-orders of my book at the post office. Very surreal moments. You're doing amazing!

[@PassingSeagull]

The return of the celebratory spin, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! So much hard work and care and dedication in this, it has to feel surreal. Thank you for posting and sharing with us, it's been amazing to see :) It will be really neat to look back on the documented edits (i.e. swapping the last 2 chapters) after reading your book!

[@lailapapas3111]

CONGRATS ON FINISHING DE!!! Listening to your thank you to the audience, I think it might be nice to say that not only have I been watching since the beginning of draft six, I finished drafting my first book alongside you uploading to your vlogs! They give me a lot of encouragement and motivation to finish my own projects despite being a student. Now I'm pushing to the end of plotting for my second book's first draft, and hope to write my 2nd book alongside whatever you do next!! Wishing you luck on querying and I'll be sticking around

[@alyssa.and.the.books.]

Congrats Sara! this is such an amazing milestone!

[@jasoncassibry]

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! And thank you so much for sharing the process with us. For those of us working on long-term projects that take months or years, it's really helpful to see their other people out there doing this and persevering. ❤️🥳🎂

[@AuthorJCCarpenter]

Omg congratulations Sara on finishing the effing book!!! 🎉🎉🎉 I remember when you first started your channel. I loved your energy then. I love your energy even more now and I can't wait to see when you start posting your videos about getting your agent and publishing your debut! You've got this! I believe in you. Congrats again and of course I'm sticking around for more videos. Take care of yourself Sara!

[@vanessaprestoncreative]

You are so inspiring, Sara! And you finished the BOOK, yayyyyyyy!!!! 💫 I'm so happy for you. I hope to finish draft 1 of my current novel by mid December. I love the idea of buying a piece of jewellery to celebrate a milestone in the process. Enjoy whatever comes next, I'm here for it.

[@alesswonderland]

Woooooooo!!! I'm so excited for you!! I know you didn't move as fast as many people online but it really helped to make me feel better being a slower writer. Thank you for sharing Sara.

[@jenniferfischer4237]

Congratulations Sara 🎉🥳😃! You did it!!! Thank you for taking us on your journey 🙏. I feel very proud of you. I cannot wait to read your book and to see what other wonderful things you are going to accomplish in the future. ❤🎉😊

[@tessawritess2111]

Congrats on finishing the book Sara! I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your hard work and sharing you process on KZbin for us. It was nice to see someone else trying to be a writer and to see if they can actually do it, and thank you for sharing this process! It was very helpful, and your videos always gives me motivation to keep going with my progress! Keep up the good work! Would love to see what comes next!

[@BersaliNesrine]

Congratulations sara!! I still rememeber the first time i started following you on instagram, way before you started the youtube channel , it was encouraging to see an author who never gave up on her book idea, and now seeing that you finally did it made me so emotional. You deserve it . Want to see the rest of the journey 🫶

[@rainsilent]

Congrats on finishing the book! Also thank you for being so willing to share this journey with us. It has given me a lot of insight into the process. I'm sure it has done the same for many others as well.

Congrats!!! I'm with you on that feeling of finally being done after it's been a long time. I finished my book this summer after 10 years. Felt incredible! Also with you on the next book not taking so long!!! 🤣(I'm a slow writer, and then I went through a divorce that sapped me emotionally, and then I went through a writing burnout. Fuuuun times.) But can't wait to see where you go next!

Hey Sara! I am so incredibly proud of you and think that's AWESOME after working on DE for 9 years with 7 drafts, while getting sick in the process of your journey to get it done. 🎉 I had no doubt you'd finish it sooner or later, but have you thought of a name for the book yet or are you still working on it? And I bet you called your parents right away to tell them the great news. Again, I am so happy for you, and got emotional watching you cry the tears of happiness, and I'll stick with you on this journey of yours. Anyway, have a lovely day and you should do something more to celebrate. ❤
