Alexa Donne | WRITING DATES & NaNo BRAINSTORMING | Preptober + Copy Edit Vlog @AlexaDonne | Uploaded November 2021 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
October is for Preptober and copy edits! In this vlog, I brainstorm for my 2021 NaNoWriMo project, which will be my third YA thriller, plus do my copy edits for Pretty Dead Queens!
Do forgive some subpar audio in a few places--happened before I realized the mic connection on my camera was wonky, which actually precipitated me upgrading my camera to a Canon 90D!
