I'm still in my 2020 writing slump, despite having tried to get out of it. I've tried plotting with the Snowflake Method. I've tried using the Story Grid. I have three different ideas, and none of them want to be outlined!

What I realised was that the reason I was pushing myself to continue to use these writing methods that weren't working for me was authortube. I'd committed to doing an 'I tried plotting like' series, and I didn't want to let that go. If I did, what would I do videos about?

So here's another writing ramble - on whether authortube has been detrimental to my writing, and some ideas/thoughts that might help if you've found yourself in the same place as a writer.

QUESTIONS FOR THE COMMENTS:
Are you an authortuber? Do you think it's helped or hurt your writing?
