Weekend Writing Sprints - Featuring Autumn Ashleigh By Jasmine Dayton 2024-11-10 | Hello everyone! i am so happy that I am doing sprints again and this time doing them with an authortube friend :') we had spoken a couple years ago and chatted on video but never got around to doing sprints so I am so excited that we are able to connect again after all of this time! Autumn Ashleigh has had her channel for several years and often shares writing vlogs on her new projects as well as reading reviews. I will make sure to plug in any upcoming announcement she has when we chat! As far as my updates go I am in the middle of writing a short story anthology that will come out in increments at the beginning of 2025! I also have a newsletter set to start in 2025 through my author website.

500 Words For 500 Subscribers! By Jasmine Dayton 2025-04-23 | #authortube #writerwednesday #writinggoals THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 500 SUBSCRIBERS!This is honestly very surreal that I have gotten my channel this far. I know that I am certainly not the most timely or consistent creator but you still are wanting to watch my stuff and that means the world to me. This short story is dedicated to you dear subscriber! At the time a filmed which was a few weeks back there were about 514 I believe but I have even seen some new faces since then so thank you!50 Character Archetypes everywritersresource.com/50-common-character-archetypes🔮A Fortune Teller's Whimsical Caravan🎃I Immersive Experience [4K] youtube.com/watch?v=jX5c6rkFYkYDISCLAIMER:I have only done light research on tarot cards and I am by no means an expert in any sense of what tarot readings are actually like so feel free to take my approach with a grain of salt with my light research. Also there is one character that I misgender at one point in the story, I made sure to correct it in the final. You may notice the audio is a bit off on it but I did my best with what I had! I'm trying to still practice using they/them pronouns when requested so thank you for your patience.

Week One Of Writemas By Jasmine Dayton 2024-12-26 | Hey y'all hows it going? Welcome to Writemas! This year I felt pretty disheartened by the November Writing Challenge not coming to fruition so I have decided to take part in Writemas! For the next 12 days until Christmas I am going to be making daily vlogs of my experience :) Instead of making a goal like a word count I have made very specific goals about my writing projects and each day I have a new writing prompt. Here are my goals:Day One: Write more scenes and experiences about the best friend who dies at the start of the book ✅Day Two: Write the ultimate betrayal scene ✅Day Three: Map out the official power structure of a totalitarian government from my story ✅Day Four: Go more in depth with your side characters. Make them a Save The Cat Beat Sheet with their want vs. needs 🟡Day Five: Download the official book cover for Sleepless Wonder 🟡Day Six: Go more in depth with your villains - what is their want vs. need, are they redeemable or not? 🟡Day Seven: Outline the pre-evolution of the fall of the society in your storyDay Eight: Figure out how IK fits in the story - perhaps make a connection with S knowing things about rodeos in order to defeat himDay Nine: Figure out what my trilogies main character want vs. need is. Perhaps they are different each book and there is an overarching one throughout the seriesDay Ten: Write missing scene where A talks to both R and L about their prospective jobsDay Eleven: Write a chronological order synopsis for Escape the Safehouse with character back storyDay Twelve: Figure out the cellar system that St uses when the small camp pits are invadedHappy holidays, merry christmas, and happy writing everyone!

What to do about NaNoWriMo By Jasmine Dayton 2024-10-28 | This will probably be the last time that I will ever use the tags and terms for their company. I do not support their stance that they have made on AI. Because of that I have made a conscious decision to not include their brand or slogan or name from now on - even though I will be continuing to participate in the challenge.They cannot claim to have the rights of "we are the company that issues the challenge to write a first draft in one month" and I am planning on taking full advantage of that. I am not sure what the future holds for writing challenges from here on out, but I hope this will make people think and re-evaluate how we should implement AI without hurting artists.

Are You A Badass or just Toxically Positive? By Jasmine Dayton 2023-10-12 | Hey y'all welcome back to another ThurREADSday!I got this book a long time ago at a used bookstore and after it sitting on my shelf for a year decided to take a look. Unfortunately, this book didn't resonate with me the way that I hoped it would. Without giving too much away I felt it was pandering, unrealistic, and full of toxic positivity. I am one of the few on Goodreads that marked it at a 1 out of 5 stars but you are more than welcome to read this book! Just listen to yourself when reading books like this and know that in the end it is just a book.TIMESTAMPS00:40 - First Three Chapters Recap06:13 - Half way through Recap10:27 - SOLID DNF12:02 - The Difference Between Forgiveness and Boundaries15:19 - Positively Toxic with Positivity -----------------------------Join Me On Wednesdays Or Thursday At 3PM!

A Vlog About Getting Over 1st Draft Perfectionism By Jasmine Dayton 2023-09-13 | Welcome to another Writer's Wednesday! Here is the update from my Preptember Goals which you can also watch here: I have a real issue with perfectionism in writing which is probably why I have not been successful in completing anything other than a first draft for much of my work. I think the mindfulness of this is a step in the right direction to get over this hurdle. Trying to keep telling myself that the first draft is just me telling myself the story. So we will start there.TIMESTAMPS0:59 - Poster Fails1:06 - Phone Cam1:49 - Writing B-Roll2:02 - Wednesday Updates3:18 - More Camera B-Roll3:43 - Overcoming Perfectionism in the 1st Draft6:06 - Readjusting Mil-wordy Goals __________________Join Me On Wednesdays Or Thursday At 3PM!

Chatty Vlog Making Preptober Posters By Jasmine Dayton 2023-09-01 | Welcome to another Writer's Wednesday! I decided this year that if I am going to do NaNoWriMo I am going to get a head start a month early. Throughout the years I have learned how I work best and I have found that doing NaNoWriMo during the holiday season usually doesn't work for me. So my hope is making my goals a month earlier I will be able to actually finish up a project.And also instead of writing the beginnings of a new book I am going to start the second draft of my WIP so I am really breaking the mold on all sort of things. But I believe that it will help me achieve my long desired goals.Thanks for listening to my rambles.TIMESTAMPS0:39 - Why are you doing Preptober in September?0:56 - Re-Introducing Preptober Posters1:34 - Aggressive Love & Boops2:05 - Making a Decision on what to do for "OctNoWriMo"2:31 - Why I put My Trilogy on Hold3:17 - Why do Authors call their Books "Project (insert obscure noun here)"3:48 - Going Against The Grain (again) and Making a Different Goal4:46 - Poster ASMR4:54 - Let's Get Started5:52 - The Camera Debacle6:27 - The Glasses Debacle6:59 - Planning Out Scenes12:47 - Plot Holes I need To Resolve14:15 - Final Goals17:13 - Fast Coloring17:53 - Preptober (In September) Reveal__________________Join Me On Wednesdays Or Thursday At 3PM!
