"An entire work of fiction based on spite" The best kind of fictional work 😆

[@ChandelordChandel-wi6hx]

Miguel de Cervantes wrote the second half of the "Quijote" out of spite, titling it "El ingenioso CABALLERO Don Quijote de la Mancha" instead of "El ingenioso HIDALGO Don Quijote de la Mancha parte dos", as that was the title of the fanfic that spurred him to write the conclusion of his greatest caracter. For those wondering, "El ingeniosos hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha" is the title of the fiart half of the author's magnum opus.

[@petrastedman669]

Also, you said 'new school for the kid' but I heard it as you were looking for a musical for your kid, and I thought it was really sweet that you were being so supportive of their dramatic interests, the way we are of yours.

[@andreagriffiths3512]

I am totally here for it! I’ve already pre-ordered the book and cannot wait!

[@Musicita]

While I appreciate the thought, this lady here ain't unsubscribing. Seems like an excellent way to start a new re-watch of the series while waiting for my pre-order. Would some people complain about repeats? Yeah, of course, this is the internet. So giving warning is totally understandable. I'm just glad that you're also getting a good dose of people supporting and loving you to ease any worry you might have about taking a brief hiatus while doing all that other important stuff!

[@samuelline9573]

Im ever more excited for the book after thst snippet. Cant wait to see how all the little things in Caroline's life affect Rosamund's travels

[@SailorYuki]

I hate notifications in general. IF I had notifications on I'd be swarmed by them and it'll just drown in the crowd. So no bells here. But I will watch the re-run with glee. Can't wait to binge them yet again. Congratulations on the book Caroli.. I mean Jill. It sounds fantastically fun! Can't wait to have it in my hands.

Oh no.... Going through the fantasy heroine series again.... That series that I loved when it released and still love now and am so excited to read the book for, that series.... (I'm going to keep that bell turned on, personally)

[@jemzeldab7086]

YES!!! Now I can force these glorious videos upon more family and friends who only want to see short content rather than watching the whole short series in one go (which I may or may not have done. Multiple times. Look, you deal with your intense longing to read this book your way and I’ll deal with it mine.) happy Cheese hunting!

[@DragonMan5643]

I'm honestly so proud of how far you have come, Jill. I started following you... three years ago? Four? The pandemic messes with my perception of time. In any case, I'm gladly going to stay subscribed with the bell on. I'd be delighted to watch reruns in the meantime. Cheers!

I'm actually looking forward to rewatching the Fantasy Heroine series 6 days a week, in order! It's a particularly lovely sequence, well written, acted, and presented and I LOVE IT. I especially appreciated the excerpt from the book describing Caroline's background before the series begins. Useful information to have in the back of our mind as the series commences!

[@dragonmakr2159]

Very much looking forward to watch the series again, in the way I watched it the first time - one day at a time (one crisis at a time? Hmm) - although I certainly have watched the whole thing through more than once! So thrilled that this loooong year of work for you has created something physical that I look forward to owning. Well done, you!

i know this will sound strange but the fantasy heroine series was one f the reasons i rang the bell in the first place. they are like sunshine on a rainy day. (Makes my soul, makes my soul. trip trip away-yay.) and yes the text in brackets is intended to launch an earworm into the mind of anyone silly enough to unring the bell.

See, I never actually turn on notifications to begin with. Instead, I go through my subscription feed every day as part of either my morning routine or my post-work routine. That way, I can actually keep track of who's doing what, and I don't have to rely on the algorithm to tell me when someone makes something I actually care about or play the notification game that KZbin so desperately wants us all to sell our souls to.

i found you through your armour and fantasy fights reviews honestly "just stab me now" was a refreshing addition to my daily consumption of youtube media and the fantasy heroine shorts made sense to the ugliness of shorts ... I will continue being subscribed and support you in this endeavour but I oppose anything pre-order . Regardless I will buy the paperback when it will become available for EU market through amazon. Yes I am old-fashioned when it comes to books.

[@trinkab]

I am looking forward to the re-runs! I consider it comfort content. I've seen it, I know where it is going, but I still find the wit and plot quite enjoyable. Enjoyable enough that I watch it every time it comes up in my recommendations anyway. Your re-runs just means it will be coming to me regularly and in order instead of randomly.❤❤❤❤❤😊

[@hollysinclair1351]

I'm actually really excited for the rerun tbh. Your Fantasy-heroine-series has a lot of re-watch value (just watched it last week for like the forth time or so). Soo... imo everyone unringing the bell is absolutely missing out.
