im so proud of you, ana. i’ve never finished a book before but i’ve started a LOT of projects. finishing a novel is my dream. thank you for the inspiration<3

The feeling of writing "the end" is just so hard to explain. You're happy, you're sad, you're proud. There's so much far you've come and so kuch far you've got to go. Keep pushing girl, you got this! I myself completed my first draft a while ago and editing really sucks (BUT did I mention it feels so great?!).
And once you're ready to share your story, I'll be happy to Beta-read. All the best!! <3

[anyapotgieter]

I’m so proud Ana. Not many people can say they finished a book, but you can!
It’s ironic that you completed your 44k word project of ‘I met you in a graveyard’ because yesterday I completed my 100k word book ‘The moons and one world’. Like you, I’ll be moving on to draft #2 shortly.

Btw: ever since I watched your video for creating a book cover about a week ago, I started to create book covers on bookbrush and that’s been so much fun 🤩

[cqtarina]

I’m 11 chapters from finishing a book I’ve been writing for 2 years. And this helped motivate me to finish so thank you!

Oh my gosh how exciting, I'm so proud to think back to when you were first telling us about this to now finishing the first draft! Thanks for inspiring me to persevere with my writing even when i want to give up lol <3

[kittycatcupcake]

Congrats! I’m so happy for you that you finished your first novel, and it was really cool that we got to see this novel’s journey from first concept to finished draft. ‘I first met you in a graveyard’ seems like such an amazing, intriguing story, and based off your reaction to the last few chapters, I have to say I really want to get my hands on a copy of your book! I think it would be really cool if you made some videos of the editing and rewriting process…as well as maybe some publishing videos, too? I’m super excited to follow your writing journey further, and hopefully see your books on shelves across the globe!

[dxrkerrxses]

I could NEVER. I've been planning to write a story since I was 9!! - I'm 14 now. This is so inspiring to me, I hope you get farther in publishing your book(even tho this is like a year later and that was a draft)

[weathshel]

congratulations!! i cant wait to read the published version!

[PureCurebyFaith]

This video just got recommended to me and even though it's kinda old (2 months) I still want to share my experience with writing here in the comments! 😁💫

So, I've been writing a story about a war between two differents groups of wizards, and I love every second of it. Writing dialogue and playing mind games with the reader is so fun, and I love my characters so much, specially one that is so sweet and cute but can chose to be a cold-blooded murderer in a few steps.

I'm only writing the second chapter, and I feel bad for not progressing faster. Even then I make myself write everyday, because I know that if I miss a single day I will start to slack off.

Writing is fun and I'm glad there are people on YouTube who can relate to this (:

Hi. Ana!! Looking at the title, I immediately knew this was going to be another amazing video. When you said that you finished your novel, I started smiling at my iPad and clapping for you. You should be so proud of yourself! You have out so much effort into your novels and it has really paid off. Funny story, my mom was walking by and heard me reading your metaphor and said, “hey Maddie what are you reading” I said, “the most poetic thing ever from my fav yt Ana Neu” I was also thinking the entire time, “Ana writes the kinds of genres and stories that I would like to read. When Ana publishes her first book I will be so happy and buy it. You write so beautifully and you deserve the best!”
Ilysm,

Congratulations! Good work! I am 53 years old and I’ve had a couple novels within me my entire life. When I was in high school I took creative writing and loved it. I used to write poetry and short stories. I have not written in a couple decades. I have my idea in my head and I’ve been watching a lot of outlining videos and character arcs. Going on vacation next week and I at least want to get a good start on my outline. I am finally going to do it even at my age

[sophiedraper]

Hey Ana I'm so proud of you! I literally could never! This book seems really interesting and I wanted to know if you have ever planned to publish your books, because if so I would love to buy one!

[farhaanatas]

Love you 💝💝 and congratulations on finishing your first novel its one of the best feeling

[ciciqzu]

[haileymerrick]

Thank you so much for this, I just found your Channel and I’m obsessed, thank you for so much for sharing your journey. I’m a young author as well so seeing you doing all this is super inspiring

[ystark]

I remember when I finished my first book, “The Troublemakers”, I was so excited. I wanted to give it to my teacher as soon as I can; and once I did, she loved it. There were only around 15 chapters, since it *was* my first book. I have came across your channel not too long ago and I am in love.. I’m about to use your tips and tricks for plotting books and now I’m going to buy a notebook JUST for my stories. Can’t wait to write mine tomorrow.

[nightmarewolf]

I’m working on a book called The Stolen Sun, it is a fantasy war book revolving around multiple perspectives, so you get the full view of most parties, I practically just started but I had been planning it out for a long time, and when I finished the first chapter I was overjoyed!

[charlottewrites]

[elisesilverfire]

Holy shit, your amazing! I finished my first book ever (the first draft) a couple of months ago and it was just surreal and therefore I can 100% feel your emotions through the screen!!! Can’t wait to read it if you ever decide to publish🥰

[gracelincolnthebooknerd]

Hi I am SO proud of you right now!!! I'm currently writing my 3rd book and know the feeling of FINALY finishing a book. I would totally hug you if I could!!!
