Zoey, thanks for another lovely video that is also a good timely resource for people to take advantage of. As I watched it there were a couple of ideas I had that you might want to consider. The first is actually based on this video. You promote this video as a gift guide for "the bookish people" in your viewers lives. Well as I watched this I came to the realization that the only bookish people I can think of that is even remotely part of my life is you yourself. So how about creating a wish list of books you like and want that is available on Amazon or some other online seller of books so that your subscribers could get books for you as a gift? Now I'm not going to promise you that if you do create such a thing I would get you something because frankly my finances are very tight and I often struggle to get holiday gifts for anyone, even myself. I just figure that surely you have other subscribers that enjoy your videos as much as I do and if so they might like to get you a gift if they can afford it. Okay now that's one idea, the other one was also inspired by your videos. Now it may be something I've suggested before, I know I've thought of it before but I can't remember if I ever passed the idea on to you. Anyway this idea combines the fact you like to read, the notion that you enjoy inspiring the love of reading in others, the fact that you have a lovely voice and the fact that you have a flair for things theatrical because of your interest in theater. The idea is for a series of videos that features you reading children's books to children. You could structure it a number of ways, either as you reading a relatively short book, cover to cover all in one video or tackle longer books by doing multi part videos to cover the entire book. Now some of the things that helped me to come up with this idea if it occurred to me that there probably are parents out there frustrated with the types of TV programing available to kids or are frustrated that their kids spend so much time playing video games and maybe they would love to instill a love of reading in their children and who also might enjoy having something they can have their kids watch for a half hour or so while they're busy cleaning or cooking dinner or whatever. Now another thing that factored into my suggesting this idea was a memory from my childhood. I had a class in elementary school where one of my teachers would set aside a half hour every other day to read from a popular children's book at the time. She was quite good at making the reading of it very interesting and it was thru this teacher I was introduced to Willy Wanka and the Chocolate Factory. There were other books also but that's the one I remember the most likely because I enjoyed it the most. Anyway this could give you a new direction to take your channel in and if promoted right could greatly increase your subscriber base (presumably from parents subscribing to make it easier to show your videos to their kids) and if you get enough kids watching for a half hour or more it would generate enough viewing hours to start getting you some KZbin money since judging by the views you often get you're not getting much if any now. The only down side I see to it is that in the beginning when you're trying to establish and audience and provide a steady stream of new videos you might have to push yourself a bit on days when you weren't feeling too well. Eventually though you should be able to reach a point where there are enough videos for viewers to choose from you could be a little more selective about when you would put up new videos. Anyway both of these things I've suggested are just ideas to consider and if you choose to pass on one or both of them you don't have to explain to me why you chose to pass nor will I feel offended. Okay so that's it, I'll end here by wishing that you have a wonderful day.
