It’s been a while since I’ve posted a writing vlog—longer than I intended! But this is not due to a lack of writing. On the contrary, V: The Solar Queen currently sits at 51,106 words; I am about a quarter of the way through the manuscript’s first draft.
So what happened? Why haven’t I been vlogging?
Well, actually I have. As you see by the timestamp, this vlog is lengthy. This is because I filmed this vlog over the course of about a month. While IV: Aurora and Luna is told entirely from Aurora’s perspective (not counting the prologue), V: The Solar Queen has five different points of view, from five different characters: Aurora Green the ‘misfit princess’, Zale Castaway the rebel warlock, Aiden Leo the noble mage, Daisy the orphaned elf, and Skye the Faerie Queen. I thought it would be fun to document my thoughts as I went about establishing each of these different points of view—a neat souvenir from V: The Solar Queen’s creative process.
I am glad that I filmed and edited this vlog. However, in the idea’s initial excitement, I failed to realise just how long the video would end up being. Because I really made this one as a keepsake for myself, I decided to go ahead and post it, anyway. But in the future, I will keep my vlogs shorter than this one—both because I do not want to overwhelm you, the viewer, and because editing this one was a gruelling task!
Yesterday, I filmed a cozy Autumn writing vlog, and just once I’ve posted There Are Multiple People Living Inside My Head, I am going to get to editing…
