I'm starting a new book! Except that it's really an older story that I haven't been able to stop thinking about.
Hear about why, what's happening to Book 12 in the meantime, and watch me set up my plotting planner for a new story with 7 distinct POVs. Color coding for the win!!
Here's the interview with Neil Gaiman and VE Schwab that made me cry: www.tor.com/2020/06/14/read-h...

I hope you enjoy today's video, which is part soul confession about what it's like to be a writer in this day and age of "never fast enough" and part eye-candy as I play with lots of stationery. Enjoy and don't forget to leave a "like" and a comment. They help so much!

@lynnlefay9631 Год назад

Oh no! I don't want your writing process videos to leave your Heart Breathings channel! I love watching all of your methods and processes! The notecards method was game-changing for me! But I totally understand the need to cut down on obligations and focus on what you need to 🙂 I'm just being selfish 😀But as an aside, I loved the video, it was very hypnotic, and also thank you for all that you do (and bare) to us viewers! Your honesty and transparency comes through on all of your videos and it's heart-warming

@HeartBreathings Год назад

@@lynnlefay9631 I was trying to say that most of my videos will likely be more closely tied to my writing process! Less stationery hauls maybe? Not sure what that will look like moving forward but don’t plan to stop covering my writing process!

@lynnlefay9631 Год назад

@@HeartBreathings Phew! You've been so important to my author journey and can't wait to see what's next for you! All the love!

@joannaholden943 Год назад

Love what your doing with your stories and how you're taking such good care not just of your mental health but also giving your creative side the time it needs to grow this story. ❤️ Definitely writing vlogs and plotting set ups. Love those videos!

@joannaholden943 Год назад

Also, girl, you HAVE FINISHED so many projects already! And if finding the right projects to work on at the right time is part of what allows you to finish, more power to you. ❤️

@VictoriaJankowski Год назад

We have become such slaves to the multi-book per year concept that it's taking all the joy from the art and the craft of writing, at least for those of us who feel pressured to follow this pattern. We should not feel guilty for taking the time to create on our own terms. Like you said, that's not the way art works.

@michellederoche-johnson9977 Год назад

What you said at the end about the fear of the negative comments really resonated with me.... I hope you know that the value in your content is NOT "Hey I wrote this huge pile of books", but rather in the sharing of your PROCESS and your PROGRESS-- and your absolute willingness to share your journey with us along the way....the good, the bad, AND the ugly!!!😁 Keep on keeping on, Sister!!❤️

@lwalt7120 Год назад

Neal Stephenson used to have a single web page as an author saying, "thanks for reading. I don't give interviews. I don't write on demand. I don't answer emails. I am writing. Thanks for understanding. Or not." And I sooooooo respected that. I've never been able to write on demand. I wrote an epic novel series that took 15 years and spanned 5000 years of history and I never finished it or published it. Because in the end I wasn't up to the story as an author at the time. And that just is what it is. Maybe I'll finish it someday maybe not. It's been 10 years since I sat with it. But I've written 3 other books in the past, so I know it is possible. But the Muse comes to me when she comes and takes as long as she takes. Can't be rushed.

@annelyle5474 Год назад

This really resonates with me - I spent several years trying to write a book that would please my agent but was never really satisfied with the results myself. I ditched the agent, and during lockdown started a new project purely for my own enjoyment. It took a while for all the pieces to come together, but it's finally written and I'm hoping to publish it early next year 😀

@mamuchaexpress Год назад

Sarra I'm going to be honest with you . Yes, I would love to read how Eternal Sorrows ends. But if you get Vanesa Shaw or Luna Day out before that, I'm not gonna be mad. Actually, I prefer that you put out a story you enjoy writing, because then I know I'll enjoy reading it! I'm reading the Witching Well now, so good!

This is an encouraging video in so many ways! I love that you’re becoming more confident and comfortable in yourself and your decisions (although I’ve always thought you were confident), and along the way inspiring others. I’m happy that you are happy with your plans, and as always, would love to see every process. But no pressure, I respect what you said that there might be less videos here. Love you, Sarra!!

@katbloo3333 Год назад

Wow! look at what you have achieved and you said Mid-40's? That can't be right. You look amazing. I love your books. I LOVE your videos. They bring such joy! You are doing what so many of us want to but I can't seem to get it off the ground. Well done. 🥰

@miasterling Год назад

These last two or three years, every time I saw TDOVS in the back of your plotting planner, I thought, "there's no way she's getting to that," because every mention of it was qualified with "but first this zombie book and then this Shadow Demons book and then this witch book and then this other demon book" (and so on). It was like an unattainable reward for writing the books you "should" be writing. So, I'm happy for you that you are finally making it a priority! Have fun.

@ingridwimpel9026 Год назад

Hello Sarra. I'm one of your Publish and Thrive 2022 students, and the most important thing I took away from the course is that every author's path is different. And you as an Indie author make choices that feel good to you. You are your own CEO, so do as you please. And after the course the first thing I did was write down: I decide upon my own pace and not the readers. Rapid publishing is not my thing, because just as you said in the video above speading up my writing would take away all the joy of writing in the first place. And if your books and stories are great your readers will wait for them. Of course you will lose some, but most of them will stick if they love your writing. And to me that is what this career is all about. Doing what you love and enjoy, and don't let anybody else dictate your pace. The course was amazing and I've learned a million. Thank you for putting it together and sharing all your wisdom with the rest of us newbies.

Right after watching this video, I started to scroll down RU-vid and there was an ad for summer fashions for women-and the model was wearing a blue shirt with TWO dragonflies!! A sign that your path leads to working on two stories at once! 😍 At least that’s what I saw the second I saw the shirt. I took a screenshot and can send it to you if you’d like to see it. 🙂

@josee_smith Год назад

Loved this so much! It's inspiring to really see you own your creativity and make decisions based on what's best for you, not necessarily what others think or what the market says. Very empowering for newbie writers who want to try different things. I'm also a big fan of writing vlogs and seeing working writers in action, so definitely more of that please! And I'm excited to read this new book once it's done! Sounds absolutely delicious and amazing :)

@writingsue65 Год назад

Sarra thank you for once again talking right into the reality of the creative process. You are also so inspirational as you move forward. After writing and publishing my last three books back to back I was so burned out. And what has started to pull me back from the brink of wondering if I will have have a creative spark again is working on other stories that are not to market completely different to what has been so successful for me. I sat down yesterday with your amazing planning materials and planned how to still write the books that pay my bills and also moonlight on these new stories coming up for me. I’m always so so grateful for your honesty and this video has so confirmed for me that I’m on the right track for my own creative well being. THANK YOU!

@ashleyhamman3868 Год назад

I stumbled upon your videos about a month ago, and I just wanted to say I admire what you are doing. I have been struggling to write my book series for years, and your content has really helped me gain a new perspective on how to plot each of my novels. I'm not 100% there yet, but you've been a huge inspiration! And go you for blocking out the haters and following your heart! Its a lesson every writer needs to learn.

@mrandisg Год назад

Your videos and IG posts have really been speaking to my heart lately. I just realized I've still been putting pressure on myself to finish editing my stories and get them "published," even though my co-author and I decided to post them on Wattpad instead of trying to publish for profit. I've been beating myself up for not doing what I've been talking about doing. The only difference between our situations is that I've never been published, unless you count a blog that I update sporadically. Every attempt I've made lately to rekindle the flames of creativity has fizzled out, and now I think I know why. Thank you for this epiphany! Sending lots of "good juju" your way! 😉

@msmwriter Год назад

It makes me really sad to hear about people leaving you those negative comments. What happened to the old adage, "If you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all." I'm so glad that you have decided not to listen to the naysayers and do what is right for you. It really is inspiring for those of us who feel the same as you. It may not help those people mentioned above, but it helps me to know that it's okay to start over, get excited about new projects, even if others remain unfinished, to come up with new systems and tools. Keep doing what you're doing, Sarra. I guarantee there are more of us in your corner than not. 💙💜

Sarra I could not be more happy for you, and your excitement is contagious. You do so much for this community that its your right to want to do this. As I write this, I thought about this book that I have had for a while its called You are a badass by Jen Sincero, I haven't read it all but as I was opening it and I think this is a sign from the universe, I don't know but for some reason I automatically opened the book to this one page (64) and it said in capitals Do Not Waste Your Precious Time Giving One Single Crap About What Anybody Else Thinks Of You, this really resonated with me. Thank you so much for continuing to be so inspirational to all of us. So please continue to follow your heart!!!!

@sbeeart9071 Год назад

you’re so inspiring to me! I’ve been writing my first book but I’ve been so put off by the fast release culture that I almost gave up. you’re so right that getting into indie publishing is about wanting freedom, and the constant pressure from the market undoes that. I have to trust that I can build my career in my own way and it will be all the better and more fun for it! also yay to more writing vlogs 🥰 they’re so fun. enjoy the process Sarra!

@cam632 Год назад

Sarra, I'm so glad that you are taking the space you need to just breath and get back what to you love. Please continue to show up for yourself.

Just want to say that I recently read a series that was fabulous . . . right up until the last book. One of the reviews claimed the author got sick, but didn't want to miss out on her preorders, so rushed things. I'm sure some readers would have been angry about the preorder being canceled, but I think most fans would have preferred to wait longer, and receive a final book that ended the series the way it deserved. I hope most of your fans are grateful that you're taking the time that the final book needs!

I just can't seem to write lately, but I did get my rights back on the first book I published years ago (not the first book I wrote). I have a third of the second book written for that series but my publisher had not wanted it and I'd sat it aside years ago. And I also have a finished first draft of third book for the the series. After a lot of procrastination, I've decided to dive in to this series again and I'm starting by reading the original book (maybe do a little tweaking of the story/secondary characters) and get it ready for re-release. My HOPE is that by reading the first book after all these years, my energy will burst forward and the next two books will be ready to flow and complete. My PLAN is that I then do quick releases on the three of them at the beginning of 2023. You are exactly right...we're indie writers and we get to say what and when we write!!! Let's do this!!!

i feel like one of the things that people dont talk enough when it comes to pleasing people and making our loved ones happy is that our own happiness is actually >part< of what makes our loved ones happy. if im completely honest, i would never be happy if someone i love is sacrificing themselves to make me happy, my happiness depends also on if they are happy by themselvs as well. I talked about this with a few friends of mine and that was what helped me come to terms of doing things for myself. me being happy with my life and my own work makes them happy, they are so happy to see that i've gotten happier, healthier and more content with everything. and in the end, everyone can celebrate the journey of life together. happiness is not a trade but a commitment that people chose to do together you know? i hope it makes sense.

I love that you and your husband are on the same page with your plans, and that he is supportive of you! I hope you enjoy your writing as you want to, and that both finished books are ones you’re proud of by the end!

Yay! You've talked about this book in your coffee chats, and while it's not my genre, I sooo want to read it (and the others!). As it's now multi POV, I'd love some multi POV content. Happy writing!

Only someone who isn’t a creative would give you grief about needing to switch gears. People don’t understand that you need emotional energy to write, and we can’t always gauge where our emotional tank will be down the road. I actually really appreciate your honesty and vulnerability. So happy you’re settled into your new house and getting your writing mojo back! ❤️

The lighting of this video is awesome! A weird comment but maybe it's encouraging. Love your heart and generosity with your fans Sarra!

Your transparency, authenticity, and integrity are inspiring. I am so grateful I have found your channel, and subsequently HB90 and P&T, as you normalize the true life of a creative individual. I am grateful you are following your heart and soul into this new book. It certainly sounds like you and George have an amazing bond, and if the dreams are telling you to go for it - I'm glad you're diving in! I am excited to learn more about your process as you work through this book, but make sure to keep prioritizing yourself. 💜
