Hello Readers!
February was definitely a month of reflection and kicking myself in the rear-end. I found myself hitting that slump that so many of us do soon after we've made proclamations of resolutions in the new year. I started out great. I was hitting all my daily goals with stride and nothing was going to stop me. Then...I don't know when or why or how it happened, but I just...stopped...
The steam I thought I had vanished. It wasn't like I was running low and needed to just get my head back in the game. It was like I woke up one morning and found myself behind by not one but TWO weeks on my goals! Seriously?! But I'm no stranger to these moments. I always seem to "bounce back" with even more fire and determination.
So, what could've been a really bad month, turned into a month of new ideas that I decided to run with! I'm actually looking forward to the stories I plan on writing in March and making sure I take this whole writing (and now YouTube channel) thing one day at a time.
And speaking of my YouTube channel...I made a bit of a mistake that I quickly rectified and will explain in more detail in a future blog post, but in short, I put all my eggs in one basket (or in this case, channel) and that isn't what I should've done. To that end, I have TWO YouTube channels that are split in this way:
Storywriting w/E.L. Drayton - This channel will be where I will share my journey with being an author. I'll share tips, tricks, step-by-step guides, and more. So, if you are interested in learning the process and the business of writing, you'll want to subscribe to this channel.
Storytelling w/E.L. Drayton - This channel is dedicated to my Live Streams that I host both on YouTube and on my Twitch Channel. If you have any interest at all in watching me write the stories before they go public, you'll want to subscribe to this channel.
