Hello and welcome to another writing routine video! I've spent a lot of time trying out the writing routines of famous authors, and in doing so I've gotten a lot of requests for my realistic writing routine. So, I figured it was time to show you! This is my a video all about how I write and work a busy job. Essentially, here we have my realistic night owl writing routine and a quit day at work vlog. I also talk about juggling burn out, expectations and some general things that help me to work full time hours and write on the side.
Hope you enjoy the video and take care 💛
Timestamps:
0:00 - preamble
1:23 - my ordinary busy work day
11:49 - my night owl writing routine

Seeing you acknowledge that most people's time schedules do not allow them to write daily is honestly such a relieving statement. I think writing a book has become this unachievable thing that you have to sacrifice so much for.

@ringsroses 2 месяца назад

Came to the comments for this. I also think that the "write every day" is combined with the idea of being a best selling, multiple work author of fiction that's sold at airports (which, no snobbery here, just work that's not necessarily going to be offensive to a broad audience). I think it excludes people who have one or a few stories they want to tell while also being present in their lives and being available to things beyond writing. And, I don't think readers want books that only come from the most monastic of writers. I know as a reader I love reading diverse books from people who live and also happen to write really interesting stories.

@paigebeth4741 2 месяца назад

I'm a professional writing student, and there are so sooo many days that I have to stop my current writing project, put on one of your videos, and find motivation by watching you. Then I can start again. I don't know what it is about your channel, but please keep doing what you're doing. It boosts my mood, motivation, and desire to write, all at the same time. I so appreciate what you do!

@Everythingsunny 2 месяца назад

I felt tears well up in my eyes because I felt so seen and validated when you said that it’s classist and ableist to say someone has to write every day. There are few things I love to do more in life than write and even something I enjoy with my whole heart can be painfully laborious because of disability and working class dynamics.

@decompcore4780 2 месяца назад

Loved your hot takes on needing to write every day. As someone who is autistic and struggles with energy levels and also works full time while being an aspiring novelist I can be really hard on myself for not getting up crazy early and doing morning pages and then writing 2000 words on top of that. But I think I’m realizing that it’s more important to celebrate the work I do put in instead of penalizing myself for taking time to rest. Thanks for another great video!

Appreciate your words about not writing everyday. This "write everyday" thought is so heavy and demotivating. I love that you highlighted it as "not working for everyone and that's fine" Your videos about writing inspire me each time, thank you so much! Can't wait to hear more about your novel

@KimtanaTheGeek 2 месяца назад

Thank you so, so much for this. I've watched all the other writing routines you did, and my heart always broke because I work full-time in the service industry at a busy, low-staffed restaurant. Eight-hour shifts with no breaks, five days a week. It's exhausting work, and writing a novel in my spare time is incredibly difficult because of my lack of time and energy. I work both nights and mornings, and most productivity/writing recommendations tell me to "just get up earlier! Write before that shift!" Yeah, no, that's not feasible when your 45-year-old body is aching from laborious work. And watching the routines of full-time writers who had luxurious writing schedules just made me feel that someone like me with a full-time job didn't have a place in the novel-writing world. I've been dying to see one of these routine videos for someone with my kind of schedule (Octavia Butler's was close, but 2am?!? Please, no!). So thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for this one! It made me feel like I'm not failing as an aspiring author for missing a day writing because of a double shift, or that writing a couple hours a night after work in little chunks is ok. I really appreciate this, and I have more hope that this life-long dream of writing a novel is possible for someone like me. I love your videos, thank you for always inspiring and motivating this little old writer!

@StephTucker-hc8px 2 месяца назад

As a fellow author, it's so refreshing to hear another writer say you don't have to write every day. It's such an awful stigma, and I used to judge myself so hard for it.

@donna25871 2 месяца назад

Hi Christy - I completed my PhD last year while working in a full time role as a Head of Department in a private school. It was really hard because it meant doing this work at night, weekends and holidays. I had to be organised and disciplined. I took leave from my position for the last six months so I could devote uninterrupted time to get it finished.

@IrinaFlowers 2 месяца назад

It's impressive that you have the energy to write after work. I am usually braindead after 4 pm, so I try to squeeze my writing into the morning schedule, otherwise it's not happening.

@MrXiminoes 2 месяца назад

Polyphia gang! It's so impressive that you were able to launch a full-time youtube channel while working full-time and writing as well, the amount of discipline that takes is incredible. I work full-time and work on a novel/short stories in the time I find around that, I can't imagine trying to throw in a youtube channel in there as well. Excited for the day your book finally comes out!

@mjohnson4825 2 месяца назад

Hi Christy! I don’t think I’ve ever commented, but I’ve been following you since the early drafts of Project Teacup. I cried watching your agent video, and this is my first video watching since. Thank you so much for working explicitly and implicitly in your videos to show just how accessible writing can be when done with intention - it’s been a huge encouragement. As I follow along with your journey and take my own to fold writing into my life, I have come to believe the first step to writing isn’t just to write but to believe that we are capable of incorporating writing into our current life. It’s such a treat to see this peek into your routine and your philosophy! 🥰

as someone who wants to write but is a mama (a full time job - 24/7 haha) I struggle with all the expectations of “consistency” in the writing craft - routine and consistency is tough in a busy life where every day looks a bit different. thank you for making this realistic, flexible routine video!

This was so inspiring! FYI - I’m too old for “Ritual”; I work a “traditional” 9-to-5 job; I’m so haphazard in my writing I can even tell you what draft I’m on; and I’m so delusional I think I can be a published author before I die. Thank you so much - I needed this video at this exact moment.❤

@Lara_Ameen 2 месяца назад

I love this video! I’m multiply disabled (wheelchair user with cerebral palsy, ADHD, autism, and more). I love how you said you don’t write every day! But you still get stuff done. I also think the advice to write every day is ableist. I got my PhD last year and when I was working on my dissertation (a pilot script that I adapted into a fantasy novel), I had to draft quickly, but I definitely didn’t write every day! I took a 7 month break from it (burnout, lol) and just revised my dissertation novel again last month as I’m getting ready to query. I also appreciate seeing your routine as I do a lot of freelance work right now and am self-employed, so I also have to fit writing around my freelance work. Can’t wait to see what’s next for you and Project Teacup! 🎉

@erinjandacreative 2 месяца назад

I deeply appreciate your "hot take" in this video. I have spent so many years feeling badly that I cannot write every day, but you're absolutely right! We all have different abilities, schedules, responsibilities, etc. I also completely understand your internal debate over the naming of floors for your characters' house. I have a similar hangup with spelling conventions. Despite being an American who currently lives in the US, I prefer British English spelling. I drove many of my professors nuts in college whenever I used British English over American English. lol

I really appreciate your candor on this video, and your perspective! As a writer who has been too burnt out with a full time job to write for months, it can be so discouraging to hear the oft-repeated "write every day" advice, and I totally agree that it's classist and ableist. I'm trying to write a little bit when I feel up to it, and hoping to build some momentum over time.

@everausten 2 месяца назад

Thank you for all the consideration you had for not writing everyday. When you mentioned 'not being able to concentrate', I was so relieved. I've never seen a professional mention it before and it's such a big part of my day, trying to trick my brain into focus. Even on personal projects I care about deeply and have cleared the time for ✨

@AelisMona 2 месяца назад

I loved how calming this video was. Thank you so much for the advice! This routine seems so healthy and realistic and I think it can help a lot of people. For example I struggled a lot when I was a full time student and needed to write my Master's thesis but as you said, it is really important to take some moments during the day to unwind and refocus! Please take care!

It's actually funny that you mention the earphones and brain malfunction (still in the middle of the video) cause I am in a profession where listen to audio via earphone is critical and if my voice is fed back to me, I cannot do my job. It's not just me, but everyone who is in my profession, as in, human beings cannot really think through hearing their own voices fed back to them a split second later (so our audio set up is done such a way to avoid this issue - and if this isn't the case, we argue very strongly on the spot loll) so you aren't the only one!!

I cannot tell you how much I needed to see this video 😭 I had a mini breakdown the other day because I feel like I can't do it all. I'm nearly at the end of my first draft and while I'm excited, I realize how much work is left to do for it to be ready to query. On top of writing, I have a full-time job and like to live a very active life where I run, lift weights, go rock climbing, and hike throughout the week. I feel like I can't write every day and still do the other things that fulfill me. It's so refreshing to hear someone talk about how they fit writing into their life while also working and doing things outside of writing. SO grateful for all of your videos, but this one in particular 🤍

Loved this insight into how you balance the workload. I think i treat fiction writing as a hobby, i can just about manage about a half hour after dinner. I sometimes feel energized by writing fiction and other times I just need to do something else to relax like listen to an audiobook. I usually give alot to my work or study tasks during the day. Loved your idea of also having a dedicated day for writing.

@crose174 2 месяца назад

Great video. I liked how you changed from the dress to the sweater after 5pm. I also drew a map of my fictional town, I picked a house on Zillow that is close to my fictional house and I have a vision board for my book that I look at when I feel stuck or to make sure I’m hitting all the plot points. One corner of my board has a few bite marks from when my cat attacked it 😂 One thing I do for the rabbit hole scenario is just use a word as a place holder (for example BLANK all caps) then when I figure it out later, I just use the Replace tool to change all the BLANKs to first floor or whatever I choose. It keeps me in the flow when I’m flowing, but it’s also not crazy hard to go back and change it.

@leah986 2 месяца назад

This is one of my favorite videos I've seen from you in a while. I love how real and candid you are, and I totally agree with you that you don't need to write every day to be a "real" writer! That's just silly. I work full-time at a quite emotionally-draining job and sometimes I just do NOT have the energy to write. That's okay though! It doesn't mean I'm not a real writer and it doesn't mean I don't care about my project. Some days just don't allow for it.

@johanag6736 Месяц назад

@N.Traveler 2 месяца назад

This video was really inspiring! Thank you for giving us a realistic peek into your day. I've personally noticed something paradoxical... When I used to have less time to work on my writing due to school, parttime jobs and other obligations, I used to be so much more productive. Now that I have way more time on my hands, I get nothing done. I think it's called Parkinson's law? That's really proven true for me. Yesterday I forced myself to work on act 3, as I'm sooo close to finishing my outline. And I had a major breakthrough! Now I'm determined to finish the first book in the series I'm working on this year. I think I'm also more motivated now that I have the prospect of a 32-hour work week again. Trying to get as much of the prep work done as I can before I start my new job.

@xcrackingvoices 2 месяца назад

This might be a strange analogy, but I think the "you should write every day" is much like Ratatouille's "Anyone can cook". In Ratatouille it meant that a great cook can come from anywhere. In my head, when I hear "you should write every day" doesn't actually mean what it seems to at first glance. It is more like "you should give yourself the opportunity to write every day you feel like writing". I feel the same as you, that it is easy to get burnt out when you keep writing without actually feeling like it. It's not because you're passionate about something, that you should be doing it every day like it's a chore, else you might forget why you used to love it in the first place. Good luck with your novel, I'm sure it will be wonderful

The headphones thing is pretty valid. I've had a few sessions in a recording studio and I found that most musicians (at least the ones I worked with) actually prefer to have only one ear phone on. This allows them to hear themselves as well as the backing track and improves their concentration.

@RobertDPore 2 месяца назад

I love love love this video! I started my latest attempt at writing a novel 2 1/2 weeks ago, and seeing you fall down the ground floor/ 1st floor rabbit hole was so validating. I had my own fall down a rabbit hole this week after I realized I had misinterpreted a (somewhat misleading) Wikipedia article, eventually leading to me spending a whole hour trying to work out if saying the plural 'friends' in medieval Occitan might in fact be their gender neutral way of saying 'friend' (i.e., akin to singular 'they' in English). For me, the fear of burnout looms because I've been primarily trained as a composer, and as such it’s never taken me much more than a month and a half at most to produce a "first draft" of a piece of music, but at the rate I'm writing, I may not finish the first draft until mid to late July or later, and then I'm currently setting myself three more drafts after that. I've never spent that long doing a single creative project, and that makes me a bit anxious. Pray for me/send good vibes/etc.!

If you look at interpreters, you will see they wear over-ear headphones with one on the ear and the other one tucked just behind their other ear - it allows you to hear what you need to and also hear yourself. :) Taking breaks is so hard for me - I get into the flow state and can work for 7, 8, 9 hours with no break, so bad but hard to train my brain to allow a break. I really admire your work ethic, it is clear you invest time and effort and are now reaping the reward with your successes.

Hello, I have an important question! I am so confused to whether you/writers in general copy the previous draft while making changes and fixing mistakes in a new document or just write from scratch the whole scenes without using the old draft. The second one doesn’t make sense to me but at same time it’s maybe better to avoid bringing old mistakes in a new draft? Help, I don’t understand the whole concept 😂

I can't take iron supplement, even spatone. Also you could put some gratef organic beetroot in the slice too as raw beetroot is high in iron. Dutch cocoa is a lot nicer than regular cocoa ( I learnt from a chef when I was waitressing and loved the brownies and asked ) Also raw Cacao has nutrients in it, better for you than cocoa. Ok going to watch the rest now lol . Sorry if you knew all that 😅

Something I've never thought about as an American is our weird floor naming. Ground level I feel like is to public buildings. Then there's first floor, second floor, etc If its a house, then you just talk about the main level, upstairs, downstairs, and room names like basement. Apartments have floors, and a garden level which is underground But all buildings have storeys, ie a two storey house But then you can be on the 4 floor of an 11 storey building. This is dumb. Great video!
