[@TiaLove28]

@@briellewrites you should also read Story Genius. its more for outlining but it'll be great help for when you write your second book!!

[@briellewrites]

@@TiaLove28 yes!! I will be borrowing it from my friend for sure :)

A solo writing date sounds like so much fun! I might do that because I’m currently drafting brand new scenes. I’ve been deep in developmental edits and using index cards and sticky notes on a trifold, so I couldn’t exactly lug that to a coffee shop lol. But I might make a scene list and do it now! I absolutely love the name ‘the ripped bodice’ for a store, btw. Just such evocative imagery. And idk if I’ve said this before, but making circles to fill in seems so satisfying. I might have to make editing goals for myself so that the editing trenches done feel so daunting lol. Thanks for the video!

[@Ebony.B]

Love how motivating and aesthetic your videos are 🤍 Edit: your story sounds so intriguing! I love how the character arcs are sounding. I would definitely read it.

[@briellewrites]

Thank you!!

[@TMDavisWrites]

A tip for so you don't end up editing. Take a few notes on where you want to go next time you write when you finish your writing sessions so when you return you do not need to reread it. I am the same way if I reread it I end up editing it on default.

[@briellewrites]

Thank you! I do the little notes for my upcoming sessions but for some reason feel unable to write if I don’t reread at least a few paragraphs so I know where I’m starting lol

[@Ebony.B]

@@briellewritesI do the same thing 😂

[@kyriaki333]

seeing a dustin cameo suprised me! talk about worlds colliding

[@briellewrites]

lol yes we are besties

[@vikillustrations]

this always inspires me to go write lol. I am currently at about 65k of my project as well, meaning I just hit the midpoint and diving into the second half... so much for a "50k novella length"

[@briellewrites]

Omg wow that’s going to be a long draft lol good luck with the second half!

[@Ebony.B]

Wow that’s crazy! Congrats on 65k 🎉

[@AdrianasWonderland]

[@briellewrites]

Yay!! I’m glad you enjoy them!

[@InfiniteIdeasllc]

I just started my own writing vlog, do you have any advice for a newbie?

[@briellewrites]

I’ll be making a video about this in the future!!

[@InfiniteIdeasllc]

Fantastic! I'll keep my eyes out for it

[@Nintessa657]

What software do you use to write on? I have a few ideas for books and I want to get them down.

[@Ebony.B]

You can use google docs. It’s free and many people use it

[@michelle-ev3me]

i highly recommend reading “writing the breakout novel” by donald maass!! i think every writer should read it, it’s so good

[@briellewrites]

Oooooh thank you!!! Excited to expand my craft book collection!

[@AdamFishkin]

5:48 Massage for the win!

[@ngtskynebula]

Oooh, the affection question! I sent it, hehe 👉👈

[@briellewrites]

ahh thanks for the q!

[@ngtskynebula]

Your vlogs make me wanna try out my neighborhood's cafés soooo much 🥺 But I'm too shy to film in public. I don't even enjoy taking pictures in public 😭 It makes me embarassed. I wish I did it, though, I like registering what I do. It's always fun to look back.

[@briellewrites]

lol I also get embarrassed! at some point I just told myself to do it anyway haha.

[@ngtskynebula]

@@briellewrites pls share with me 10g of your bravery 😭
