Barrett Laurie | Behind the Scenes Vlog: Winter Writer Retreat & Lisa Fipps Interview | AuthorTube Writing Vlog @BarrettLaurie | Uploaded January 2022 | Updated October 2024, 16 hours ago.
Hey fearless writers! Thank you for joining me for my third AuthorTube vlog. I decided to vlog a week of writing. What could possibly go wrong?

This vlog follows me behind the scenes of the winter writer retreat and my Lisa Fipps Interview. Bring some Kleenex because it was an emotional interview. Lots of laughter too!

I'm Barrett Laurie; a writer aspiring to be traditionally published. Good chance if you've landed on this video, you want to be a traditionally published author too. Here on this channel I offer weekly writing vlogs, host Critique Group Live every second Thursday of the month, and a weekly AuthorTube Talk Show called Bookish with Barrett. I also host writing workshops and AuthorTube collaborations.
