You and Cody are both awesome! I love the energy you both exude in your videos. I work nights so I'm not really able to catch a lot of live streams, but I watch all your videos (both of you) while I'm working. 💙

Good luck! You've got this! I love the names you've got for your characters in this story and the idea of a "fun kidnapping story". 😂

What I like about this year is that in the previous few videos and lives you’ve given us proper details about your premise and even character names whereas I feel last year you were scared of mentioning anything and it was so rare to hear anything about gas station 😂 I already feel so invested in this book 😊

[CodyTheWriter]

ALYSSA!! Not me getting emotional at the shout out! You are so fun and encouraging and are truly a light in the authortube space! Always a joy having you on the channel! <3

[isabellajuanitalyn]

Your energy is so addicting! So excited to see your progress tomorrow!

[briellewrites]

You plugging all the other videos you’re directing people to is everything. Ok pro youtuber!!

[SDHegyes]

I'm so glad the computer issue was an easy-ish to get fixed. That's scary. Been there. Done that. Not a fan.

The AuthorTube community is AWESOME!!! I love it so much.

what a wild start to your november!! so happy your computer is alright lol. I'm so looking forward to your daily vlogs this month 🌞

[MeredithPhillipsWrites]

I delayed starting my writing work for the day so I could watch this ahahaha
Glad your computer didn’t explode, although think of the content and thumbnail potential if it did…

[AnnaRobbinsWrites]

writing the last scene first is such a cool way to kick off the month!! ⭐

[sherrylalonde]

Woohoo! Let the fun & games begin! I hope you've loaded up on snacks and caffeine. Someone needs to create a November Advent Calendar...

[jess_writes_a_book]

Happy November! So excited to see the journey as you write this story. My story also features a sort of would be mafia boss who has so many more layers to him than just that.

"I have a concept of an outline"😂

[clairebrown]

1. 200 words of an outline that I should not be working on right now. Lol

This month, I'm trying to finish the first draft of the book I started in May. So I definitely shouldn't be outlining a new book right now. Lol

[jaepelton]

YAY I can’t wait for daily vlogs! Happy nano :)

[margot_k_writes]

I'm glad your laptop battery isn't going to explode! like I said, you are welcome to call me paranoid now 😅

[स्पीडरमैन]

Alyssa! There's a Channel Name Reddit read and Requested read on YT. So, could you please tell me how they write their stories. I think they use AI.

[krenko-]

so glad your computer didn't explode!! cya tomorrow!

[staceycoates]

A trick I use when I dictate is that I take the last five or ten minutes of a sprint to edit what I wrote. So if it is a 25 minutes sprint I try to spend the last five minutes editing what I wrote so it actually is what I want. But yes, you need to edit as you go when you are dictating!

[jackiereadsandwrites]

I love dictating when drafting! It's super helpful but does sometimes result in unfortunate (and occasionally funny) typos haha
