Love this idea! I might have to try this over on my channel, but I am low key kind of scared to look at how much time I have wasted on my phone! Also, don't be ashamed of TikTok doom-scrolling. I've lost MANY hours of my life to the same thing haha. I feel like it's just part of the writing process at this point! Also, I went on a solo writing retreat for my birthday last month and it was the BEST thing ever! I highly recommend!

[@sincerelyvee]

i’m so glad i’m not the only one🙈 omg that sounds amazing where did you go?!!

[@CodyTheWriter]

@@sincerelyvee I went to Knoxville, TN! It was a little cabin in the mountains. It was close enough to the city to have easy access to food but secluded enough to feel like I was in my own little writing world!

[@sincerelyvee]

ahh i love that! that sounds so cozy and perfect!!

[@LiteraryStoner]

Awesome! Congrats on all those words! Social media is such a time sink.

[@sincerelyvee]

thank you!! it really is! it also distorts the perception of time-i’ll think i’m on it for an hour when multiple have gone by🙈

[@chocolateoreo6489]

Ooh I hope your book is coming along as you wish (:

[@sincerelyvee]

thank you!!

[@chocolateoreo6489]

@@sincerelyvee anytime love

Hello Vee! I dont usually comment but I just wanted to tell you that you are my favorite KZbinr! Your videos are so comforting and I always rewatch them when I'm stressed. This video has inspired me to get myself together and do something similar this week but with reading instead lol. Keep up the amazing work Vee! 🥹❤️

[@sincerelyvee]

aw this is so kind🥹 thank you🫶

[@mint_chip5918]

Ive wanting to do this so I guess this video is a sign that I should! Keep up the amazing work Vee, I love your videos so much! :)

[@sincerelyvee]

ty!! you’re so kind☺️

[@Elizabeth-Writes]

Vee, I've been watching your videos for a long time and I just subscribed to you. You have some of the best writing content on youtube. Your voice is so calming and it's so sweet how you talk about your pet cat. Keep up the good work!

[@Ebony.B]

[@sincerelyvee]

[@Itskaylahfaye]

[@amelieandres]

this was such a fun video!! I'm so motivated to work on my novel now 💗 also, I'm so interested in how other people outline their novel, would you mind making a video on how u set up your scrivener for outlining?

[@sincerelyvee]

i’d love to!

[@malakm8143]

I want to know too! ​@@sincerelyvee

[@tianawithaj]

this is such a good idea!

[@sincerelyvee]

thanks tiana!☺️

[@GhostCake27]

I get so happy to see you’ve uploaded! I binged all your videos a while back and seeing you again makes my day! It felt so nice to find another college student (I just graduated this semester) pursuing writing. Hope you’re doing well 🖤

[@sincerelyvee]

aw this makes me so happy :) omg congrats on graduating!!

[@avleveri]

Great video, thanks for posting. I love how you went for the more chaotic option of doing a different amount of writing each day - that was so wild to me, I could never do 7 hours in one hit! I can barely make it past 2 lol. Anyway I love and look forward to your videos, thanks for the hard work you put into them!

[@LaurenxOtt]

I want to try this, havent wrote much in a long while, and want to start making writing videos on my channel so i might steal this idea lol

[@sincerelyvee]

I RECOMMEND!!

[@Aziamel]

This type of genre in videos is different for me but I love books and writing so it’s definitely wholesome and something inspiring to hear and see! Keep it coming💐

[@sincerelyvee]

thank you, i’m glad☺️

[@caramelcoffeplease]

i want to do this but my daily average is 12 hours and i do not have the stamina for that

[@hereliescharlotte]

[@sincerelyvee]

[@t-helen-price]

[@sincerelyvee]

[@sincerelyvee]

[@BrittanyandBooks]

This was such a great video 💗💗 maybe i should try it too 👀

[@sincerelyvee]

[@ABookNook]

I’m thinking of doing this for reading and study

[@sincerelyvee]

[@anandaferraresi]

Aaahh Vee, your vids are so cute! I love your vibes and the snacks you eat in the videos look so yummy lol Also, what a great backpack, where did you get it? 🦋

[@sincerelyvee]
