I WROTE ANOTHER BOOK! | writing vlog

Kat: "I wrote another book" Me: "I wrote another sentence :')"

Lol. In all realness though progress is progress and fellow writers are proud

Whenever you say "It's fine everything's fine" I have to go back and watch Cooking with Kat, the worst (and best) cooking show on KZbin

I miss that cooking show.

I still rewatch that! XD

The best stories to write are ones you have no intention of publishing because then the only rule is there are no rules

[@haleypotter417]

I've kinda fallen out of watching youtube lately, but I missed your energy and given the dystopian hellscape, I rediscovered my love of your channel

[@gjori4704]

"So my magic system is really complicated. I don't know how to explain it. I'm not sure I even quite understand it" Like, I felt that so hard haha But like, daaamn Kat! You go! This is crazy, I've barely written at all this year and here you go just tossing out book after book ;)

Kat: this book is never going to be published Me: WHAT THE HECK THIS SOUNDS AMAZING I WOULD GIVE UP AN ARM AND A LEG AND SHAVE MY HEAD AND KICK A PUPPY TO GET THIS IN MY HANDS SHE HAS TO PUBLISH IT

[@livmilesparanormalromanceb6891]

I agree! Kat would make a lot of money self-publishing. She cranks out manuscripts quickly (once she cracks down on herself, ha) and she has a loyal fanbase who would gladly buy her books.

"Dystopian hellscape" ... this, this is what I'm feeling too.

[@chvp4605]

I haven't watched Katy's videos or booktube or written in a while and I now realized how much I missed youtube and writing and her fun and friendly personality and nerdiness. It took a whole epidemic for me to finally take care of myself and be creatively productive but...it helps me to be positive! Stay safe everyone!!💕🙌🏻✨

[@KaiInMotion]

"I didn't mean to! None of this was planned!" This month is the second time I've tried to write a novella only for it to turn into a novel so I heavily relate to this. I'm gonna try to finish this book tonight too, y'all, wish me luck! I'm at 60k and I think I've got at least 12k left to write. Which like, realistically 12k is the most I've ever written in a single day, so it's kind of possible, but I'm also gagging lol. I meant to write a standalone novella. Then a standalone novel. Now I know it's the first book in a series. I'm so stressed 😩 by myself.

[@mikaeladeer2763]

I started writing a short story and it's probably going to be a novella or even a novel. I am still coming up with new things to add and I love the characters so much and it's difficult to stop. It's funny because if I want to write a novel, I have sometimes issues to write enough but this project is just writing itself :)

[@mackenziebrynnrap]

EEEEEEEE I'M SO PROUD OF YOU CONGRATS!!! You said you probs weren't gonna publish this so would you just post it on WattPad or Patreon or something when you feel it's finished and you want people to read it? It sounds SO DANG interesting and I'm super here for it! As a fellow writer I certainly relate a lot to loving talking and hearing about other peoples' projects! It's just like so dang good and fun and lovely and everyone's so creative and stuff! BTW April is also Camp NaNo so yeah if you wanted to do VEDA for April Camp NaNo we are all here for it!! So much love to you my dear and I'm so happy that you've been so motivated and inspired and stuff! Hugs if you want them and take care of yourself!!!

[@maya-gur695]

I'm planning on writing a 50K first draft (or a zero draft as you call it) of a novel in April during camp nanowrimo. I have no idea how I'm going to do it. I honestly adore you for writing 50K in a month.

[@Katytastic]

GOOD LUCK!! it's not so daunting when you take it one day at a time! you can do it!

[@maya-gur695]

Me to myself, under quarantine: Okay, okay, no school for 3 weeks, you finally have some time to write. Me, 0.0001 seconds later: *tries learning the dance for Cannibal* Also me: *rewatches Austin & Ally for no reason* And also me: *stares at my wall for a good hour* Me: *sighs* I have NO idea how this happened.

[@Sol-pc1jb]

I lost it at Austin & Ally for some reason xD

[@KuramasSilverstar16]

Isn’t it crazy how you want to do it so bad you Do everything you can to not do it? I’m the same way, but in my case I got a full time job (and am an essential employee so no quarantine time for me) and a little baby daughter, so all the more difficult for me

[@Piggeroo]

honestly this video is Exactly what i needed to motivate me to work more on my writing as i stay huddled in my apartment (which isn't That much different from my normal life but ya Know)

[@jadathomas2108]

What’s your advice to young writers who want to write a big project but don’t feel like they have enough experience? Or they’re not good enough?

[@Raven_Nivhaar]

Personally, my advice is to just write it. Or if you don't feel like tackling that particular story quite yet (I understand) I would write as much detail as you can about it (the characters, world, plot, etc.), to act as a blueprint for when you actually start writing it, and then you can try and write other things, like short stories or novellas. It's true that you get better with practice, and with each paragraph you write, you're better than the one you wrote before. There's no such thing as 'not being good enough'. Good luck fellow writer! Get those stories out! :D

[@mishaschaffner-kargman8311]

I know I'm not Kat but this might help: Just write it! The best way to get better is to write and read. You learn so much every time you write a draft! Even if it's not good it's practice and no one needs to see it! Just write it and make it look nice on your second pass. No one sees it till you want them to see it!

[@Torsee]

Jada Thomas GO FOR IT!

[@Lucas-sz9rk]

Read something on wattpad and realize you are not alone

[@maritzaclaire4694]

You have to start somewhere. Sometimes that's just diving off the deep end and hoping it gets better as you learn and grow.

[@artemiis3727]

If you aren't planning in trying to publish it, would you ever consider self publishing it or putting it online somehow?

[@dreamofmedeukae]

Yes!! I love your writing vlogs. They always tend to jump start my own drafting 😊

[@camilaarmani5639]

Man, I've missed these videos. You never fail to inspire me and make me laugh. Hope you have a great writing week!!

[@gjori4704]

14:08 when Kat goes full on Simon during Watford being like "Hey, look at me, give me attention Baz" :P

[@lamerthanfiction5705]

I missed your writing vlogs so much, I'm so glad that you got around to posting one again. And congrats to finishing another zero draft, I'm really looking forward to your writing content and updates on your stories and the quering process in the coming months :)

[@sheasimmons9143]

Your video is the first I've watched in days because of my anxiety. Thanks for continuing to upload, Kat, and congrats on "finishing" the book :)

What do you mean this is never going to be published the premise sounds AMAZING I NEED this NOW (promise I'm very calm and the self-quarantine isn't stressing me out at all)

[@dannydewispelare]

I’m also getting discouraged with querying and I’ve finally started to write everything down for my next book, and I’m outlining and I love how this new book is. It’s so much fun because it’s so different but also similar in the genre. I’m really excited for my next book. So happy that you’re also writing!!! 💕

[@Katytastic]

thanks! and yay, glad you're getting excited about the next book! good luck w writing it!

[@tiredpenguin02]

[@starrynightfall00]

[@wolfganghendery8298]

Awesome!!! Well done. I started a book around when you started rewriting the last book, but I've had to rewrite 5 times, and they've gotten better and better every time, still I'm well jelly. :) The key for rewriting for me is to take all your best ideas and go with them but rewrite what is not so great, but then you gotta rewrite them later lol.

[@sleepymaxie]

Kat! I missed these so much! I'm so excited for your books, thank you for sharing the process with us!! Best of luck going forward, you got this!!

[@hanawriter]

Yaaay!! So glad to have more writing vlogs from you, Kat! They’re my fav! I certainly hope by “if only” you mean that it will be less 4 books and more 24 books, because that would be delightful! Either way, I hope you will always write things you love and that make you feel vaguely crazy! 💜

Please, I bet of you guys, my curiosity kills me with every video. 🙈 (Ofc as soon hit post on my comment, you start spilling the beans 🤣 THANK YOU for sharing with us!
