I've never followed a novel being written before, it makes me think of the processes of everything that I read being written, 'how did the author come to this point?', 'where was he writing it?'. Loving to watch it come to life, and can't wait to read it (hopefully being in Brazil won't be impossible to find a way to read it). Xo

@nayoungkim2170 Год назад

Oh Christy, I don't comment often (I really should) but seeing you work on this novel has given me so much courage to start hammering on mine (working on the second draft after a disastrous first). Congratulations on a major milestone, and I hope you have a wonderful trip. I cannot wait till I can read your novel

Congrats on finishing the first draft!! That's huge! Hope the second goes well 💛

This is so crazy, I'm about to finish Draft 3 of MY fantasy novel too!! I only have a few chapters left to rewrite and I'm so excited! Then I'm going to start working on a new project while i let that one sit for a while! Also, you are an amazing writer and you inspire me to keep writing even though I know my beginning words are always quite bad lolll

@modirulfa Год назад

as a fellow writer about to take on her own novel, watching you go through the process of writing yours has been more inspiring than i can say. i feel like i have gone on this journey with you pls, it sounds weird when we don't know each other -- im literally just subscribed to your youtube channel and yet ??? i'm so proud of you christy, catch me being at the front of the line when your book comes out (because it will ik you will get published

@georgiaknightreadsandwrites Год назад

Oh how exciting! I am SO keen to keep watching to see what's next for Project Teacup, thank you so much for being so open and vulnerable throughout this process - while doing it in a unique way of trying out author routines. So excited for you!! :D

@phoebemcmahon9698 5 месяцев назад

I've always been an artist but during college it's so hard to find the time to do it. Towards the end of my break I've been trying to make art and I just have your videos playing in the background. I've always been a fan of Studio Ghibli (watching movies and listening to the music) and I think your videos have a very similar vibe to SG. Thanks for helping all of us creatives keep goin:)

@creepypapermultipack Год назад

Watching your writing vlogs have been so helpful and motivating for me to keep writing. Unfortunately, for the last couple of months I’ve been dealing with tendinitis in both my wrists/thumbs, as well as some carpal tunnel pain and therefore cannot write or type (using voice to text this comment) and it’s been frustrating and depressing not being able to write. But for now I’m just living vicariously through you! 😂 So glad to see that you’re making huge progress on this project. I hope you’ve been able to catch up on rest since finishing this draft! Thanks for taking us on this journey ❤

@aminamuhammad604 Год назад

You've really put a lot of work into this. Congrats Christy

@megreads9 Год назад

I am an author like you but unfortunately I could not write anything since two years because I am facing a lot of problems in my life and that is frustrating me a lot first because I am an employee outside my sector of writing and I work 45 hours a week and when it comes to the weekend I only want to relax and finishing the house chores and i have a teen ager daughter she needs a lot of attention, I am also a mom dog with a little furry friend who makes my life so funny. I wrote in my early writing eight children story and one young novel then my problems comes out one by one including the most one which is financially. I hope I could return soon to my writing and concentrate on this talent because I really miss it. Good luck hope to see your book published soon. ❤ hugs from a Lebanese author

@emmaclark5289 Год назад

Christy, have found these Project Teacup videos really really interesting to watch, and loved seeing your writing process. In a future Q&A, would really love if you could talk to how you knew to plan our out your writing project into different drafts, and some of the supporting documentation you use to map the story. I'd love to have a go at my own novel but have never studied Lit or Creative Writing so I have legit no idea where to start re a project plan, so any resources you used and can point to would be fab! Cheers.

@ellie2285 Год назад

I'm so happy for you Christy!! It's really wonderful to see you so passionate about this story, from the very first writing vlog. It makes me wish I could read the book immediately. Also can I just say that your relationship with Tyler is so very sweet, I'm glad you have a person close to you that can give you feedback of this kind. I really enjoyed the video, as always - keep up the amazing work! Take care!! 🧡🌱

@dajmishibe Год назад

Congratulations on finishing the draft 3! If you feel emotional and you're crying over your story - you know you're making good stuff. Recently I've finished draft 3 of most important story I've ever written. I love this world, I love the characters and feelings that are coming to you while reading that. Now I feel so empty, just like you, so flat because it's actually over. I'm taking a small break because I can't focus on any other story. Thank you for this series of vlogs. I love them so much. Take care and have a nice day!

Hey Christy ☺️ I’ve really been enjoying your writing vlogs. I love how honest you were. I totally relate to the highs and lows of working on a personal project, the excitement and the self doubt. Thank you for sharing. Really looking forward to reading Project Teacup in the future ☕️

@clarejean3309 Год назад

I know how it is finishing up writing the final chapter of a book which I finished like last week on my notebook, just need to type it up! but it was one of the hardest things I've ever have to do. But thank you for your videos, they have really helped me in the past few months. I've started the second book in one of my other notebooks, which I called, Fallen Wings. It's about Sophia's daughter, Arya Fallon, rather than about Sophia (her story was told in the first book) but hopefully it won't be as hard as the first book was! Also happy to hear more about project Teacup and I hope you'll publish it at some point!

@booousername Год назад

Wish you good luck and lots of inspiration!🧡

@Anne_fka_XATM038x Год назад

thank you so much for making this video!!!!! it always feels so overwhelming to think of writing a book, while it's mostly just really practical as well, to put in the hours to write and write and write. I wanna take it a bit more seriously instead of just writing sporadically, so it's really great inspiration (or just to see you actually doing it, and that it's ok to take it seriously

@BriannaKaneASMR Год назад

Christy, you've been my biggest writing inspo since I found your channel sometime last year. I'm about 70k words into my first draft (which I've rewritten twice now, so is it really a first draft?! LOL) -- I actually got pregnant during a lot of the early stages where I had BIG, FIRM deadlines for myself, so I've had to adjust my timeline a lot and be patient with it. But I'm so excited to finish this. Every time you vlog your writing, it's another message to my brain that we're doing good, and we're doing what we love. Thank you

Hi Christy. What program do you use to write your drafts? Is there a reason why you chose this over let's say Google docs? Enjoy all your videos!

@sophieegana8994 Год назад

Hi Christie, how are you? I loved the video, you motivate me to start writing. In what website or app do you write? And why did you choose it instead of Word or Google docs? l’d really like to know that. Do you have any tips for beginner writers? Please try W. H. Auden’s or Benjamin Franklin’s routine ❤❤❤

@sianacrawford3258 Год назад

Would you ever consider self-publishing your book? As you have a platform of people who would buy your book if you self published, I’m curious why or why not 😊

@antoninatitkow8905 Год назад

i love your vlogs and as a fellow writer, i understand the struggle! but our approaches are quite different, i have to say. i'm curious: you repeat a few times that you had to limit yourself, that you had a limited number of words you had to use. and here's my question: why? why create limits before writing? i think that the story leads you and if you feel that it needs to be told in larger amount of words, so be it. because maybe such a solid boundary you give yourself is limiting your creative power? hah i dont want to impose or anything, i just dont understand hah

@danijelaostojic6182 Год назад

Can you explain to me why the number of words is so important? I can't imagine being a writer and worrying about no.of words. If you are a writer, you just write. No worry about size of a book or readers. You just write.

@christy-anne-jones Год назад

It's important if you want to be traditionally published. Publishing houses care about certain genres being certain sizes. Of course there are exceptions, but it's much easier to get published if your novel falls into a conventional word length for that genre. I also focus on word count because I think compression is important and word count is super important for pacing 😊
