omg is that dog plushie in the background from the "everything is fine" meme?? ahahaha I need it I'm not sure if it's that but I need it anyway so cute whenever you refer to "the boyfriend" haha

@Isabe1le 3 года назад

Seriously. How do ya'll write this much in a day? The most I've ever written in a day is 2500 and that took me ALL DAY. I average 1000 words on my normal working day but I'm always exhausted afterwards!

@josephinegieske5523 3 года назад

Same, I'm always so amazed by how much they can write per day!

@TheHexedLibrary 3 года назад

I don't know about daily, but I remember my largest MONTH was around 20k. hahahaha

@philipclayberg4928 3 года назад

@@TheHexedLibrary I wrote about 75,000 words (29 chapters) in about three weeks. I still can't believe I wrote that much that quickly (I started it in about mid-May and finished it in early June). It's a sequel to "Good Omens: Lockdown" and I posted it at Archive of Our Own. I won't say it's consistently good, but I haven't gone back to edit it yet, so I still consider it a rough draft. But you're welcome to read it there, if you're interested. Maybe with enough encouragement from people who read it I'll go back someday and start editing it. Btw, I haven't written that much that quickly since then. I think about 4000 words (not edited) in one day is my best (my fastest typing speed is around 120 wpm, not counting slowing down to fix typos as I go along).

@kirathompson3653 3 года назад

Im curious as to how much you have to edit then, because it seems that there would be more purpose behind your words, also are you a plotter or a panser. (Im a faster writer, plotter, but its a big mess when I'm done with it)

@philipclayberg4928 3 года назад

@@kirathompson3653 (Sorry for a very long paragraph below) Depends. I am primarily an improvisor (or what you called a "pantser"). Not just poems and stories, but also on piano. When it's playing music, I don't edit (I can't because, either it's live and no recording; or I'm recording onto audio cassette. I've tried playing music and recording it using computer software, but I'm not that good at it.). Either I keep it as is, or I dump it and try something else. When it comes to poetry and prose: If I'm submitting to a website that runs weekly contests (like the Reedsy Blog website), then I definitely edit as much as I can (and stop editing when it doesn't seem like I can make the story any better and will only make it worse from then on). But when it's spur-of-the-moment stuff on RU-vid, I tend to just type it up on-to-spot and leave it as is. Offline, if it's just for me, I tend not to edit, because it's harder for me to edit something that I'm not sharing with anyone. I have an offline story that I'm not currently working on, because when I was it seemed like (after the first improvisational burst of creative writing) going back to work on it (editing, writing, rewriting, etc.) only seemed to make it worse. So I stopped working on it. I'm not sure if I'll go back to it again. It's not pleasant having written over 8000 or 9000 words of it (or maybe more) and still not feel like it's good enough to write more of it. It was supposed to be a sort-of-Dracula type story, taking place in America, Switzerland, and Romania. But it kept bumping into a plot that was more like a Robert Ludlum story. And got more and more messy, plot-wise. So I stopped working on it. Not sure if it's anything I can save. Something that happens to all writers once in awhile. It happened to Terry Brooks when he was writing his second Shannara book. The editor, Lester del Rey, thought it was lousy (and went so far as to note every place in the manuscript where he thought it was poor). Brooks basically dumped the manuscript and wrote a brand-new story (Elfstones of Shannara) and that turned out to be one of his fans' favorite books. Something to be said for dumping a story that can't be saved and started with something new.

10k in a day!!! That's amazing. I've never done it but that's what I've been aiming for since I read 2k to 10k by Rachel Aaron earlier this summer. So far my record is 5.5k. 10k, one day you will be mine. ETA: Chuy's!!!! YESSS to those margs and chips and salsa and jalapeno ranchhhhh

@TheHexedLibrary 3 года назад

I'm glad someone chronicled this massive hot mess of a day! And you know you kicked butt! It was a great day for you. I'm so happy you were able to get your redemption!

@LizAllier 3 года назад

The WWWritathon was really fun and it got me through a lot of what I'd been putting off getting done so I was really happy with it. And I got through 8,000 words so I redeemed myself for the one time I tried to write 5K in a day and got nowhere so. Might need a few more of those days to finish some personal goals

@katarakitten9088 3 года назад

I for real dropped everything for this procrastinating on my story. I wasn't able to make the writathon because I had a friend come over that weekend. I was so sad

@brendasimon8086 3 года назад

3:20 Oh my gosh that's the exact way of outlining that I have found works best for me ! Been working on a novel for so long and started all over halfway because it wasn't working the way it should and... I was bored ! I had already planned it all and knew what was going to happen, there was no excitement anymore as what was to come next. Now I only plan three or four chapters ahead and it is so much better 😁 unexpected things come up that I can weave in the story path even if initially it was not going in that direction :D Wow... I've written quite a lot here, well, just excited that this project is alive and exciting again 😅

@NicoleWilbur 3 года назад

These writing sprints were so much fun!! Yay on getting 10k! I do the exact same relay-style outlining and have found it works super well! Also! I love your “write anything” day concept. I’m thinking of doing a “film anything” week to venture outside of only authortube videos.

@maebelline 3 года назад

Kate, you bring me so much joy and comfort. I love your videos so much and I look up to you like an older sister. I just wanted to say that you’re so appreciated and I’m so thankful that you’re following your dreams and doing what you love. I can’t wait to support you and read a book written by you one day.

@luj763 3 года назад

I loved the WWW. It was a great way to bond with the community and everyone else doing it pushed me to write 8K. It was genuinely a fun day, can't wait for the one in October.

@user-yu4rh6zj9x 3 года назад

I watch these vlogs and I think about how would it be if I were happy or had a decently healthy life, but here I am, having daily panic attacks and hoping I don't end up in a hospital again bc of schizophrenia. I hope I be like her one day, waking up early, going to sleep early, having dogs, sleeping on my own, maybe driving, having a bf idk... these little things give me hope

@ayaweather8119 3 года назад

Your writing style is so much like mine in the idea inspiration is what pulls you in but its only through the writing do you beginning to see the depths of the characters and what happens later in the story of go they evolve. It why, although I try to outline, my outlines usually end up getting rewritten two of three times as I progress through the first draft, because I then actually can see where the story is going.

@cryskiiim 3 года назад

I love your energy and find your writing vlogs so entertaining to watch :')

@TessaDeanAuthor 3 года назад

Congrats on the 10K. I participated fully in the #worldwidewriteathon, but I didn't spend the whole time writing. I edited a video. I beta read for someone and wrote about 4000 words on my current thriller, the one I started in Camp NaNo in July. I also had to keep rebooting my computer as I have very little memory left and it is slow to stop. Two speeds. It is old and I need a new one, but don't have the money right now so struggle with it I must.

@fardareismai4495 3 года назад

OMG I LOVE CHUYS. THEY HAVE THE BEST FROZEN MARGARITAS. Congrats on the 10k! Still convinced you guys that write that much are aliens who could take over the world on a whim but it's 2020 and my heroes are dead and my enemies are in power so bring it on.

@melanieannplans2666 3 года назад

YAAAY you did it! I did a 10k day the following weekend and it's EXHAUSTING!!! But so rewarding at the same time. I wanted to participate in the WWW but my brother-in-law got married that weekend. Sooo hopefully to make up for my lack of participation there, I'll be able to join the virtual retreat NEXT weekend. Loving seeing the energetic puppies! Btw, what was that cookie dough stuff you snacked on!?

@ruthrouse 3 года назад

This outlining in stages sounds interesting, I may have to try that in the future, I normally just write it first and figure it out later but this might send me in a better direction.

@Wallisimo 3 года назад

Slow mode caused such a stir on the streams 😂. And I totally get what you mean about being socially exhausted after watching a few in a row. Switching from one chat to the next and trying to stay engaged in the conversation sometimes left me with a little whiplash. So fun but breaks are a must! Congrats on your redemption!

@KateCavanaugh 3 года назад

Glad I'm not the only one! And yesssss, freaking slow mode bahaha. I think I might turn it on again in the future, but put it for like, 10 seconds instead or something.

I have a writing book suggestion for you -- your video on outlining/save the cat made me think you might be interested. It honestly changed the way I think about writing, outlining, and characterization. -- Getting Into Character: Seven Secrets A Novelist Can Learn From Actors by Brandilynn Collins. I'd love to see you do a video on it.

Internet and apps 'broke' traditional journaling. Started with blog and webcam. People 'journal' online now, on Instagram and co. Or when they do pick up pen and paper... well, you can check 'journaling' video online or pictures on Instagram. The 'old way' lost its appeal because it's not what new gen do. The more private it gets are chats on whatsapp at this point, otherwise it's all public. 😬

@maroonstranger8277 2 года назад

Don't worry, young people are still using handwritten private journals... We just dont post about them online -because they're private- so you don't see that 😊 don't be fooled into thinking instagram is real life!
