HAPPY OCTOBER! 🎃
- Attempt a Night Owl Writing Routine for 3 Days 120
- Favorite Line I Write Every Day of Spooktober (a patreon-only video) 77
Whether this is the start of your spooky season or your month of prep or just another 31 days lumped together, I'd like to welcome you to my favorite time of year.
As I was thinking of what I could to honor this month, I realized that no matter what, this Spooktober's experiment needed to be something that scared me.
So below you have 2 options, both of which terrify me for different reasons. For additional context...
Option 1, Night Owl Writing Routine: This would mean I more/less completely inverse my schedule. My Twitch streams that are currently at 10am will become 10PM (also the 1:30pm will be 1:30AM - AHHH) and I probably wouldn't start writing until 6pm. I'd love to hear from some other night owl's so I can finagle a routine that seems ~reasonable~ to them (because no matter what I am scared at this prospect). Perhaps I could even have some night owl guest stars on some streams???
Option 2, Patreon-Exclusive, Line a Day Update: Once upon a time, I did daily NaNoWriMo vlogs. This is, unsurprisingly, A LOT on my mental load and I've decided it's best not to do them anymore. HOWEVER, as I am starting NaNoWriMo early, one of the things I'd love to bring back from daily vlogs of olde is the "favorite line of the day" segments. Even back then, some days I had a hard time sharing a favorite line and so then added a LEAST favorite line. But this month, I'd like to challenge myself to analyze my work as I'm writing it to come up with a favorite line each workday and share it with y'all. This would also be my first foray into a Patreon-exclusive video where I don't post it anywhere else.
I'll check back after this weekend to see the results! (And will make sure to record my favorite line today - eek! in case y'all choose that one.)
Thanks so much y'all! Happy writing & happy spooking! 👻
